Connects to a simplex-chat daemon running in WebSocket mode.
Inbound messages arrive via a persistent WebSocket connection.
Outbound messages use the same WebSocket with JSON commands.
This adapter ships as a Hermes platform plugin under
``plugins/platforms/simplex/``. The Hermes plugin loader scans the
directory at startup, calls ``register(ctx)``, and the platform
becomes available to ``gateway/run.py`` and ``tools/send_message_tool``
through the registry β no edits to core files are required.
SimpleX chat daemon setup:
simplex-chat -p 5225 # start daemon on port 5225
# or via Docker:
# docker run -p 5225:5225 simplexchat/simplex-chat-cli -p 5225
Required environment variables:
SIMPLEX_WS_URL WebSocket URL of the daemon
(default: ws://127.0.0.1:5225)
Optional environment variables:
SIMPLEX_ALLOWED_USERS Comma-separated allowlist. Each entry may be
either a numeric contactId (stable across
renames; visible via `/contacts` in the CLI)
or a contact display name (what the SimpleX
UI shows). Both forms are accepted.
SIMPLEX_ALLOW_ALL_USERS Set 'true' to allow all contacts
SIMPLEX_AUTO_ACCEPT Set 'false' to disable contact-request auto-accept
(default: 'true')
SIMPLEX_GROUP_ALLOWED Comma-separated group IDs to monitor, or '*'
for any group. Omit to disable groups entirely.
SIMPLEX_HOME_CHANNEL Default contact/group ID for cron delivery
SIMPLEX_HOME_CHANNEL_NAME Human label for the home channel
HERMES_SIMPLEX_TEXT_BATCH_DELAY
Quiet-period seconds (default: 0.8) used to
concatenate rapid-fire inbound text messages
into a single MessageEvent β same pattern as
Telegram's text batching.
The ``websockets`` Python package is imported lazily β the plugin is
discoverable and ``hermes setup`` can describe it even when websockets is
not installed. ``check_requirements()`` returns False until the package
is present, so the gateway will not attempt to instantiate the adapter.
