kbchatbox - Lightweight Keybase chat client

Regular Keybase GUI is fairly resource intensive as it uses Electron. This is a simple front end for the chat API that is accessible from the command line.

Building

cargo build --release

Running

Dependencies:

• libui
• Keybase command line client (https://keybase.io/download)

Tested on Arch Linux only, but in theory should be possible to run on platforms that libUI supports.

Running tests

cargo test

TODO

• Fix API thread closing
• Notification related code from keybase.rs to main.
