HTTP API: a chat's recent messages, and sending a message (closes #5)
GET /api/v1/chats/{id}/messages returns the messages among a chat's
last count items (default 20, at most 100), oldest first. POST sends a
text, waits for the chat client's answer and returns 201 with the
message as sent. A chat the bot does not have is 404, a contact who
deleted the chat is 409, a text too long for one message is 413, and
any other failure is 500 with a chosen sentence.

The chat client spells out a message's formatting in its answer, up to
26 times the text's length, so 100 items in one answer can pass the
16 MiB read limit and end the connection. Items are read five at a
time.

Workflow

  • branch (from main)
  • do the work in Next Step
  • move Next Step to the top of Completed Steps
  • move the top item of Future Steps into Next Step
  • commit (docs/TODO.md changes in the same commit as the work)
  • merge to main if the branch is not protected, otherwise open a PR
  • push

Status

pre-1.0. No git tags exist. main is a working bot: one container image holding the bot and the SimpleX Chat command-line client v7.0.2, a bot profile named calc with a long-term address that accepts every contact request, and exact arithmetic replies (+ - * /, parentheses, decimals). The Gitea issue tracker is the authoritative list of work; this file mirrors it.

Next Step

Adopt the canonical .golangci.yml from the prompts repository once it replaces gomodguard with gomodguard_v2. golangci-lint v2.12.2 warns on every run that gomodguard is deprecated. The file is maintained upstream and is not edited here; done when make lint runs with no deprecation warning.

Completed Steps

  • 2026-09-29 GET and POST /api/v1/chats/{id}/messages: a chat's latest messages, and sending one
  • 2026-09-29 Added the HTTP API in internal/api: the server on PORT, the bearer credential from API_TOKEN_FILE, security headers and limits, and GET /api/v1/chats
  • 2026-09-28 Powers (^, also written **) and remainders (%) in internal/calc, which now reads expressions with a parser of its own in place of go/parser
  • 2026-09-28 Moved the command tree and the run and version commands from cmd/simplexcalc/ into internal/cli; cmd/simplexcalc/main.go is now a single call to cli.Main
  • 2026-09-26 Seeded from go-template-repo (renamed, its HTTP service removed) and built the bot: internal/calc for the arithmetic, internal/simplex for the chat client process and its WebSocket API, internal/bot for address setup and replies, and a runtime image on Ubuntu 22.04 carrying the checksum-verified simplex-chat binary
