Add a per-profile "Group invitations / Auto-accept" toggle in Privacy & Security, mirroring the existing "Contact requests from groups" setting. The join is fully async. processGroupInvitation already had an async accept path, used when the invitation matches a group link the user opened: prepareAgentJoin + createMemberConnectionAsync + joinAgentConnectionAsync, with the outcome reported later against the CFJoinConn command id. Auto-accept takes that same path instead of going through APIJoinGroup, so it works while the app is closed and never blocks message processing. An auto-accepted invitation still records a CIRcvGroupInvitation item in the chat with the inviting contact, so there is a record of who added the user to which group. Two details worth noting for review: hostContact is reported to clients only for group links. Clients respond to it by replacing the transient host connection view with the group and removing that chat - correct for a group link, where the contact is a placeholder, but wrong for a plain invitation, where it is a real contact. A resent invitation returns the existing group, because createGroupInvitation is idempotent on inv_queue_info. The join therefore only runs while the membership is still GSMemInvited, so a resend cannot open a second connection.
SimpleX Chat Python library
Python 3.11+ client for SimpleX Chat bots. Equivalent to the Node.js library.
Install
pip install simplex-chat
The native libsimplex is downloaded lazily on first use. To pre-fetch:
python -m simplex_chat install # sqlite (default)
python -m simplex_chat install --backend postgres # linux-x86_64 only
Quick start
import re
from simplex_chat import Bot, BotProfile, Message, SqliteDb, TextMessage
bot = Bot(
profile=BotProfile(display_name="Squaring bot"),
db=SqliteDb(file_prefix="./squaring_bot"),
welcome="Send me a number, I'll square it.",
)
@bot.on_message(content_type="text", text=re.compile(r"^-?\d+(\.\d+)?$"))
async def square(msg: TextMessage) -> None:
n = float(msg.text or "0")
await msg.reply(f"{n} * {n} = {n * n}")
@bot.on_message(content_type="text")
async def fallback(msg: Message) -> None:
await msg.reply("Send me a number, like 7 or 3.14.")
if __name__ == "__main__":
bot.run()
bot.run() blocks. The connection address is logged on startup — paste it into a SimpleX client to talk to the bot. Ctrl+C to stop.
Three decorators: @bot.on_message(...), @bot.on_command(name), @bot.on_event(tag). Message handlers are first-match-wins in registration order, so register specific filters first and catch-alls last.
See examples/squaring_bot.py for the full example.
