Current progress

Working on generator of binding classes using pybind11.

Issues

For now there are many critical problems... Short descriptions

• Symbol not found: __lololo when try to bind non-abstract classes. For example contact or accountTtl. Maybe problems with pointers. I already tried to use tdlib's smart pointer with pybind11. There is no way to bind templates from C++ to Python.
• .def_readwrite doesn't work properly with nested objects. Again issue can be in templated array (just a vector) or object_ptr.

You are welcome to help me with resolving this issues!

The roadmap in my dreams

• Generate Python binding to all classes and functions from td_api scheme.
• Add binding for Client, ClientManager and so on...
• Generate Python wrappers for already generated native classes (docs, typehints).
• Generate .rts files for Sphinx docs.
• Provide wrapper and helper classes for Client to send request to tdlib sync/asynchronously.
• Generate exceptions.
• Provide some high level methods.
