We have received reports from our user said that their WeChat account has been disabled after using this project, so use it at your own risk:
WeChat PC will be started on your Linux desktop by running the following one-line command:
curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/huan/docker-wechat/master/dochat.sh | bashIf you’re in China, try the following one-line command if the above one-line command does not work well:
curl -sL https://gitee.com/mirrors/dochat/raw/main/dochat.sh | bashJust copy/paste the above one-line command to your terminal and press Enter. Then the WeChat PC should appear in your XWindows desktop shortly.
The dochat.sh script must not be with uid 0 (root user). Running it with uid 0 will lead to an infinite loop
that is hard to kill from the terminal. If your user doesn't have the right to run docker please add the user to the docker group sudo usermod -aG docker $USER.
A reboot might be neccessary for the changes to take place.
The issue is described in #60.

zixia/wechatModify it whatever you want to fulfill your needs.
The docker image has two schema of the versioning:
X.Y.Z.a: This is for the WeChat PC Windows Client versionzixia/wechat:2.7.1.85: WeChat 2.7.1.85zixia/wechat:2.8.0.112: WeChat 2.8.0.112
x.y: This is for the docker image version.zixia/wechat:0.2: docker-wechat version 0.2
The two version schema may overlap with each other.
For example: the zixia/wechat:0.2 may be the same image as the zixia/wechat:2.8.0.112.
- WeChat 2.8.0.x can not send big images/files (#341)
- Work around: use 2.7.1.85 instead. (
DOCHAT_WECHAT_VERSION=2.7.1.85)
- Work around: use 2.7.1.85 instead. (
- In-WeChat Browser does not work (#2)
- Permanent Storage for WeChat PC Login Data Information (#3)
- Automatically install WeChat PC from .EXE installer when building the Dockerfile. (Test Automation tools might be needed)
- Monitor WeChat PC version publications so that we can publish the same version number of the docker image with it.

- New feature: wechat_pc_api， #125
Install Gnome Extension: Top Icons Plus Git by bijignome
Note 1: there's almost half dozen of the
TopIconsextensions with very similar name: TopIcons, TopIcons Redux, TopIcons Plus, TopIcons Plus Git, TopIconsFix. Use TopIcons Plus Git, it's the right one.Note 2: The
TopIcons Plushas the bug that cause thewineitself shows a window on your desktop. (#19)
When you encounter problem that the app exit with code 5 on openSUSE Leap, you need to disable X server access control to allow any user to connect to the X server before you start the app. Use below command to disable it:
$ xhost +
To address the issue (#150) do the following: (Thanks Wu Bo)
$ xhost +; sudo chown -R $USER $HOME/DoChat/
This could be caused by an old bug in wine with multiple monitor setup. Workaround is to start it up with single monitor and then switch to multiple monitors
This behavior may cause the view disappear when you use the Join Displays mode, so you need change the mode to mirrors when the app start, this script may help:
#bin/bash
xrandr --output HDMI-1-2 --same-as eDP-1-1
curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/huan/docker-wechat/master/dochat.sh \
| DOCHAT_SKIP_PULL=true bash &
sleep 5
xrandr --output HDMI-1-2 --right-of eDP-1-1Change the HDMI-1-2 to your external display name and eDP-1-1 to your built in display name. Display more than two, link to this.
Notice: you must drag the login dialog to built in display side when the process sleep 5, otherwise the view may stuck in the external display.
