PyPI pyversions

Flow Launcher supports Python by JsonRPC.

JSON-RPC

JSON-RPC is a remote procedure call protocol encoded in JSON.

In Flow Launcher, we use JSON-RPC as a local procedure call protocol to bind Flow and other program languages.

So we need to build a common API between Flow and Plugin.

JsonRPC

Example

  • --> denotes data sent to FLow.
  • <-- denotes data coming from Flow.
--> {"method": "query", "parameters": [""]}
<-- {"Title": "title", "SubTitle": "sub title", "IconPath": "favicon.ico"}
