The command vget /object/{obj_name}/vertices in the latest branch 4.27-stable may meet your requirement. For your convenience, the following is an example function to process the string return into a list:

    def get_vertex_locations(obj):
        res = client.request(f'vget /object/{obj}/vertices')
        lines = res.split('\n')
        lines = [line.strip() for line in lines]
        vertex_locations = [list(map(float, line.split())) for line in lines]
        return vertex_locations
