Bots

  • Access contact list of user you are friends with

What information about users should be included?

Implementation options:

  1. Passing the whole list in context parameter can be enough (but not the best option)
  2. We could set that list using some method on status-go side, then define js function in otto vm which returns this list (better one)
  • Allow to add a contact

What exactly this means?

  • Allow whisper to automatically send messages on events

This will be possible when event loop will be added on status-go side.

  • Add more RN bindings

Is this about markup?

  • Allow bots to send messages anytime
  • Add new APIs (XHR, promise)

Both depend on event loop

  • Clarifiy status.command and status.response (and generally semantics)

We need to add more info in docs

  • Improve response format

What exactly does this mean?

  • Allow to generate QRcodes

Allow to generate QR's and show them in messages?

  • Add custom components in sendMessage / more formatting What exactly custom components?
  • Add Token like button support
  • Allow to send and receive images

depends on swarm atm

  • Add event loop support (e.g. react on chain callback)
  • Allow to remove global commands

We may want to discuss and add permissions management for commands/bots

  • Allow bots to participate in human-to-human/group chat
  • Support multiple clickable (actionable) inline pills in bot messages

Are there any use cases?

  • Fix various bugs with global commands (incorrect formating receiver side, command name not displayed)
  • Allow to set bot status

^ that's easy to implement, we just need to add another method like https://github.com/status-im/status-go/blob/bug/whisper-on-geth1.6.1/geth/jail/handlers.go#L117 and handle signal

  • Improve docs of available features
  • Improve APIs consistency

DApp

  • Allow to upload files

Both

  • Allow bots and DApps to communicate (share localStorage?)

Sharing of localStorage is not crystal clear thing, we will need to allow access to bot's localStorage only when exactly dapp's url is opened in @browse command. Also it's not clear how this will work in group chats.

  • Deeper DApp / bot interactions

^ are there use cases?

  • Access device APIs (camera, GPS, ...)
  • Improve debugging story - reload, logs, Chrome Devtools (DApp, Bots). Allow webview debugging with release builds.

General

  • Clarify Discover usage
  • Allow to switch network (DApps / bots) from Status. Improve CLI
  • Improve devtools add/update/watch (better feedback, sometimes fail?)
