Echo Bot - Rust

##Requirements

• rust
• perl

To run the bot, the first time you need to set the credentials in the environment:

addr=$yourEmail mail_pw=$yourPassword cargo run

This will create a subdirectory called deltachat-db in the current working directory, this is where deltachat stores the state. The credentials will be stored here so further invocations do not need them specified again if the deltachat-db directory can be found again.

Documentation

The echo bot has been documented and can viewed using cargo doc --open which will show the documentation for the deltachat_echo_bot crate. This will include the documentation of the deltachat crate and all its dependencies. But please heed the warning regarding the partial documentation for the core in the echo bot's crate docs.

You can also find the core sourcecode on github.
