Dependencies

The library requires:

  • websocket-client, the WebSocket transport
  • ovos-bus-client, for Message type compatibility with OVOS
  • poorman-handshake, the RSA-based handshake and AES session key derivation
  • pycryptodomex, for AES-GCM and ChaCha20-Poly1305 encryption. The imports are Cryptodome.*; pycryptodome is a different package and does not work here
  • pybase64, base64 encoding helpers
  • bitstring, the binary frame encoder and decoder
  • z85base91, payload encodings for the JSON transport

Package installation installs all of these automatically.
