A simple NodeJS Wrapper for whatsapp-web.js by pedroslopez

• Technologies Used • Why? • Goals • FAQ

💻 Technologies

• NodeJS

• whatsapp-web.js

• puppeteer

API Doc

Why?

The main reason I decided to build this is that there are many developers who want to play around with Whatsapp API and use them in personal applications before getting/purchasing a Whatsapp Business Account API officially from Whatsapp.

Goals

• 🚀 Fast!!!

• 🔒 Does not touch user’s data

• 💰 Free! for personal use

If you think whatsapp-node-api delivers these, let me know by putting a star ⭐ on this project.

FAQ

• Is this app built with NodeJS?

Yes, it's built with NodeJS. Please see the Technologies section for more info.

• What boilerplate did you use?

None. The idea was to get a better understanding of how things work together, But I do take a cue from other projects.

• What npm modules did you use?

• express for API Server

• body-parser Node.js body parser middleware

• fs To read session.json

• whatsapp-web.js A WhatsApp API client that connects through the WhatsApp Web browser app

• How do I contact you?

If you find an issue, please report it here. For everything else, please drop me a line at [email protected]

• Do you have any other projects?

I thought you'd never ask. Yes, I do.

whatsapp-node-api's Issues

Send images

has how to send the image by url? Not encoding in base64

Please Update your package

Please Update your package

Image not sent

Hello friends. Until yesterday I was able to send an image using the code:

const media = MessageMedia.fromFilePath(path.resolve('cardapio1.jpeg'));
client.sendMessage(msg.from, media, { caption: '' || "" });

Today it does not send anymore and does not give any error on the console, it simply does not send and does not point out errors. What can it be?
There is no mistake in the path or in the name of the image, I didn't change anything from yesterday, it just stopped.

Can't send Messages

Hello, good day!,

please enter valid phone and message

Hello,

I am trying to make sending messages , but it is telling: please enter valid phone and message .
I don't think the issue with the number as it is going through GET. Somehow I think the issue is with the message as it is going through POST.

Below is the code with PHP , please correct me if I am wrong with something.

$data = array('message'=>'test message');
$ch=curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://localhost:5000/chat/sendmessage/98666669421");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
$reply=curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
echo $reply;

Any help with this?

Looking forward

Error: Evaluation failed: TypeError: Cannot read property 'WidFactory' of undefined

Hi

I am new to this, need to know has anyone implemented multi user session storage ?

File session.json not created

File session.json not created after QR Code scaned and page not rediretc to Already Authenticated

Reading the message

is it possible to read the text of a message? How can I do it?
I'm thinking of using it as a simple bot that expects a "YES" or "NO" answer.

Having a general Endpoint for sending media files

Currently, according to my understanding, there is only 2 type of endpoint available (image & pdf) to send the media files.
But I think there should be a general endpoint for sending all sorts of media files & that endpoint might take media type as an query parameter or even find the media type on its own.

So I think this should solve any further issues in sending different type files, such as this issue here Send contact card (vcard)

---

For example: (roughly this both endpoints are doing the same thing)
