## Overview
The `client-core` library provides high-level SIP client capabilities for building VoIP applications in Rust. It serves as the primary interface for developers creating SIP user agents, providing comprehensive call management, media control, and event handling while abstracting away the complexities of SIP protocol details.
### ✅ **Core Responsibilities**
- **Call Management**: Handle outgoing and incoming calls with full lifecycle control
- **Media Operations**: Manage audio sessions, codecs, and quality monitoring
- **Event System**: Provide comprehensive event notifications for UI integration
- **Client Configuration**: Simplify SIP client setup with sensible defaults
- **Developer Experience**: Offer intuitive APIs for rapid VoIP application development
### ❌ **Delegated Responsibilities**
- **Session Coordination**: Handled by `session-core`
- **SIP Protocol Details**: Handled by `dialog-core` and `transaction-core`
- **Media Processing**: Handled by `media-core`
- **RTP Transport**: Handled by `rtp-core`
- **Business Logic**: Handled by applications and `call-engine`
The Client Core sits at the application interface layer, providing high-level client functionality while delegating coordination and protocol details to specialized components:

```
### **Handling Incoming Calls**
```rust
use rvoip_client_core::{ClientEvent, CallState};
// Event handling loop
tokio::spawn(async move {
let mut events = client.subscribe_to_events().await;
while let Ok(event) = events.recv().await {
match event {
ClientEvent::IncomingCall { call_id, from, .. } => {
println!("Incoming call from: {}", from);
// Auto-answer after 2 seconds
let client_clone = client.clone();
let call_id_clone = call_id.clone();
tokio::spawn(async move {
tokio::time::sleep(Duration::from_secs(2)).await;
if let Err(e) = client_clone.answer_call(&call_id_clone).await {
eprintln!("Failed to answer call: {}", e);
}
});
}
ClientEvent::CallStateChanged { call_id, new_state, .. } => {
println!("Call {} state: {:?}", call_id, new_state);
}
_ => {}
}
}
});
```
### **Advanced Media Configuration**
```rust
use rvoip_client_core::{ClientBuilder, MediaConfig};
use std::collections::HashMap;
let client = ClientBuilder::new()
.local_address("127.0.0.1:5060".parse()?)
.with_media(|m| m
.codecs(vec!["opus", "G722", "PCMU"])
.require_srtp(false)
.echo_cancellation(true)
.noise_suppression(true)
.auto_gain_control(true)
.dtmf_enabled(true)
.max_bandwidth_kbps(256)
.preferred_ptime(20)
.custom_attributes({
let mut attrs = HashMap::new();
attrs.insert("custom-attr".to_string(), "value".to_string());
attrs
})
)
.build()
.await?;
```
### **Call Control Operations**
```rust
// During an active call
let call_id = client.make_call("sip:alice@example.com").await?;
// Mute microphone
client.set_microphone_mute(&call_id, true).await?;
// Put call on hold
client.hold_call(&call_id).await?;
// Resume call
client.resume_call(&call_id).await?;
// Send DTMF
client.send_dtmf(&call_id, '1').await?;
// Transfer call (blind transfer)
client.transfer_call(&call_id, "sip:charlie@example.com").await?;
// Get call information
let call_info = client.get_call(&call_id).await?;
println!("Call duration: {:?}", call_info.connected_at);
```
## 📊 **Media Preferences Integration**
Client-core seamlessly integrates with session-core's enhanced media API:
```rust
// Media preferences are automatically applied to all SDP generation
let client = ClientBuilder::new()
.local_address("127.0.0.1:5060".parse()?)
.with_media(|m| m
.codecs(vec!["opus", "G722", "PCMU"]) // Preference order
.echo_cancellation(true) // Audio processing
.max_bandwidth_kbps(128) // Bandwidth limits
)
.build()
.await?;
// When accepting calls, preferences are automatically used
client.accept_call(&call_id).await?; // SDP includes opus, G722, PCMU in order
// When making calls, preferences are automatically used
let call_id = client.make_call("sip:bob@example.com").await?;
```
Benefits:
- ✅ **Automatic codec negotiation** with preferred order
- ✅ **Consistent audio processing** settings across all calls
- ✅ **Custom SDP attributes** included in all offers/answers
- ✅ **No manual SDP generation** required
