Table of Contents #

Getting Started #

In the pubspec.yaml of your project, add the following dependency:

dependencies:
  ...
  threads_client: "^0.1.1"

Run Threads Daemon #

You need to run a threads daemon available to the client.

git clone git@github.com:textileio/go-threads.git
cd go-threads
go run threadsd/main.go -debug

Usage #

You can see complete usage examples in the provided test suite:

https://github.com/textileio/dart-threads-client/blob/master/test/threads_client.dart#L41

Development #

Install #

Run the daemon, as above. Next, install and run the Dart threads_client:

git clone git@github.com:textileio/dart-threads-client.git
cd dart-threads-client
pub get

Run tests #

dart test/threads_client_test.dart

Run example #

dart examples/helloworld.dart

Organization #

examples/helloworld.dart

This shows a simple use of the dart client.

lib/src/generated/

Contains all the protobufs generated by protoc. See updating instructions below.

lib/src/client.dart

This contains the client which wraps the gRPC API. Here, dart-native helper APIs could wrap each client endpoint to give the app a nice way to use the typed requests and responses.

Update protobufs #

dart-threads depends on protobufs built in go-threads. Until CI is setup, you can manually generate and update the protobufs in this project.

git clone git@github.com:textileio/go-threads.git
cd api/pb
make clean
make all
ls

The result should include,

api.pb.dart
api.pbenum.dart
api.pbgrpc.dart
api.pbjson.dart

Copy those files into, dart-threads-client/lib/src/generated/.
