# `royalnet` [](https://pypi.org/project/royalnet/)
|

|
|
A framework for small Internet communities
|
|
|
|
## About Royalnet
|
|
|
|
`royalnet` is a Python framework composed of many interconnected services that may be useful to small Internet communities (gaming clans, university groups, etc).
|
|
|
|
### [Serfs](royalnet/serf)
|
|
|
|
_Serfs_ are services that allow Royalnet to respond to **chat commands** on multiple chat platforms.
|
|
|
|
Commands using the Royalnet Serf API share their code between chat platforms: each serf will handle the specifics for their respective platform, preventing potential bugs due to code duplication!
|
|
|
|
#### Supported chat platforms
|
|
|
|
- [Telegram](https://core.telegram.org/bots)
|
|
- [Discord](https://discordapp.com/developers/docs/)
|
|
- [Matrix](https://matrix.org/) (alpha)
|
|
|
|
More can easily be added by creating a new serf!
|
|
|
|
### [Alchemy](royalnet/alchemy)
|
|
|
|
The _Alchemy_ module allows all Royalnet services to use a **PostgreSQL database** with a [SQLAlchemy](https://www.sqlalchemy.org/) interface.
|
|
|
|
This allows the usage of a shared and easy-to-use ORM: Alchemy handles for you everything, from the creation of new tables to isolating in transactions the calls made from a Serf command to the database.
|
|
|
|
### [Herald Network](royalnet/herald)
|
|
|
|
All Royalnet services can communicate with each other through the _Herald Network_, a websockets-based system allowing Remote Procedure Calls ("_events_") between services.
|
|
|
|
For example, in response to a Telegram message, the Telegram Serf can contact the Discord Serf to ask it to connect to voice chat in Discord.
|
|
|
|
Connections between different hosts are possible too, even if they currently are unused by the Royalnet Launcher.
|
|
|
|
### [Constellation](royalnet/constellation)
|
|
|
|
The Constellation service is a [Starlette](https://www.starlette.io )-based webserver that can supply dynamic pages ("_stars_") while being connected to the other parts of Royalnet through the Herald.
|
|
|
|
#### APIs
|
|
|
|
The Constellation service also offers utilities for creating REST APIs as Python functions with `dict`s as inputs and outputs, leaving (de)serialization, transmission and eventually authentication to Royalnet.
|
|
|
|
### _Deprecated:_ [Bard](royalnet/bard)
|
|
|
|
The Bard module allows Royalnet services to safely download and convert video files through [youtube-dl](https://youtube-dl.org/) and [ffmpeg](https://ffmpeg.org/).
|
|
|
|
It is mainly used to playback music on Discord Channels.
|
|
|
|
### Sentry
|
|
|
|
Royalnet can automatically report uncaught errors in all services to a [Sentry](https://sentry.io )-compatible server, while logging them in the console in development environments to facilitate debugging.
|
|
|
|
### Packs
|
|
|
|
New Serf _commands_, Constellation _stars_, Herald _events_ and Alchemy _tables_ can be added to Royalnet through plugins called "Packs" that can be activated or deactivated on each single instance.
|
|
|
|
#### Config
|
|
|
|
Each pack can access only its individual section in the configuration file, preventing key conflicts (as long as the packs themselves don't share the same name).
|
|
|
|
#### Template
|
|
|
|
New packs can be created starting from [this GitHub template](https://github.com/Steffo99/royalnet-pack-template).
