# Matrix Client SDK for GLib
|
||
|
||
This is a [Matrix.org](http://matrix.org/) client-server SDK for
|
||
GLib >= 2.40. It contains both raw API calls and a signal based
|
||
asynchronous client. The API and ABI are both very volatile as of now;
|
||
don’t rely on any specific feature until the API is frozen.
|
||
|
||
The main interfaces are `MatrixAPI` and
|
||
`MatrixClient`. `MatrixHTTPAPI` and `MatrixHTTPClient` implement these
|
||
interfaces, respectively and can communicate with an HTTP based
|
||
homeserver. If a new protocol becomes supported oficially, a new `API`
|
||
and `Client` class will be added.
|
||
|
||
# Usage
|
||
|
||
The SDK provides two layers of interaction. The low-level layer
|
||
(`MatrixAPI` implementations like `MatrixHTTPAPI`) just wraps the raw
|
||
API calls. The high-level layer (`MatrixClient` implementations like
|
||
`MatrixHTTPClient`) is a `GMainLoop` based asynchronous object that
|
||
emits `GObject` signals and uses the low-level layer to provide an
|
||
object model to perform actions on.
|
||
|
||
## Client
|
||
|
||
The `MatrixClient` interface is not fully planned yet.
|
||
|
||
## API

For a full blown example, see [test-client.c](src/test-client.c).
