Nostr Web Client

That code is lacking a private key, I need to sign my messages somehow no?

You're right, my apologies for the oversight. In order to sign your messages, you will need to include your private key in the Nostr client configuration. Here's an updated example:

```

from nostr import NostrClient

client = NostrClient(

private_key='your-private-key',

npub_url='wss://your.npub.url'

)

client.publish('your-topic', 'your-message')

```

Replace `'your-private-key'` with your actual private key, and `'wss://your.npub.url'` with the WebSocket URL of your Nostr npub. This should allow you to sign your messages and publish them securely.

This code is so wrong, but after googling `pip install nostr` I found what I was looking for. Happy

I apologize for providing incorrect code earlier. Yes, you are correct that you need to sign messages using a private key to publish them on a Nostr npub. Here is some sample code that demonstrates how to sign and publish a message using the Nostr Python library:

```

from nostr import NostrClient, Signer

private_key = 'your-private-key'

client = NostrClient()

signer = Signer(private_key)

client.connect('wss://your.npub.url')

client.publish('your-topic', 'your-message', signer=signer)

```

Replace `'your-private-key'` with your actual private key, `'wss://your.npub.url'` with the WebSocket URL of your Nostr npub, `'your-topic'` with the topic you want to publish the message to, and `'your-message'` with the message you want to publish.

I'm glad you were able to find what you were looking for. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask!
