Hi everyone!

When I call getContacts() method on client, I get this error :

(node:8700) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: Evaluation failed: TypeError: Cannot read property 'serialize' of undefined at Object.window.WWebJS.getContactModel (__puppeteer_evaluation_script__:125:27) at Object.window.WWebJS.getContact (__puppeteer_evaluation_script__:144:30) at __puppeteer_evaluation_script__:2:34 at ExecutionContext._evaluateInternal (C:\Users\X\Documents\MyPROJECTS\LPP\node_modules\puppeteer\lib\ExecutionContext.js:122:13) at runMicrotasks (<anonymous>) at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:85:5) at async ExecutionContext.evaluate (C:\Users\X\Documents\MyPROJECTS\LPP\node_modules\puppeteer\lib\ExecutionContext.js:48:12) at async Client.getContactById (C:\Users\X\Documents\MyPROJECTS\LPP\node_modules\whatsapp-web.js\src\Client.js:326:23) at async C:\Users\X\Documents\MyPROJECTS\LPP\server.js:117:15

Any help? Thank you!

Could someone tell me how do I use this api on my digital ocean vps? You are giving this error.

Now project uses moduleRaid to fetch api of whatsapp, but I cant find modules like MediaCollection and UserConstructor through mR.findModule() it returns empty array. I need them to send pics, or how can I send images? Thanks in advance, @pedroslopez

Is it possible to send a bulk broadcast to 256 users as you can do on the phone but not on the web client?

Is it possible to make the bot respond to a command only the first time the person uses it?
In the example below, every message that another person keeps that is "Hi", the bot will reply with "Hello", I wanted to know if it is possible to make him reply to that message only the first time no more.

client.on('message', async msg => {
     if (msg.body == 'Hi') {
         client.sendMessage(msg.from, "Hello");
     }
});

Do you have the project to send ready-made images?

The functions setSubject and setGroupDesc have been removed from the Chat model. A workaround needs to be implemented, possibly with the Store.Wap.setGroupDescription and Store.Wap.setGroupProperty functions.

¿whats is this?

I'm trying to initialize the script in multiple sessions, does anyone have any tips?

const {Client} = require(`./1.0.1/index`);
const fs = require(`fs`);

const session = function (number) {

	console.log('number', number);

	const client = new Client({
		puppeteer: {
			headless: false,
			userDataDir: __dirname + `/${number}`,
			args: ['--no-sandbox']
		},
		session: function () {
			if (fs.existsSync(`./${number}.json`))
				return require(`./${number}.json`);
			else return false;
		}
	});

	client.initialize();

	client.on(`qr`, (qr) => {
		console.log('qr', qr);
	});

	client.on(`authenticated`, (session) => {
		if (!fs.existsSync(`./${number}.json`)) {
			fs.writeFile(`./${number}.json`, JSON.stringify(session), function (err) {
				if (err) console.log(err);
				else console.log(`Session stored`);
			});
		}
	});

	client.on(`auth_failure`, (msg) => {
		console.log(`auth_failure`, msg);
	});

	client.on(`ready`, () => {
		console.log(`ready`);
	});

	client.on(`message`, async msg => {
		console.log('message', msg)
	});

	client.on(`disconnected`, (reason) => {
		console.log(`disconnected`, reason);
	});


};

new session('phone-number');

I'm trying to restore the WhatsApp Session, I found that most of data is saved in the localStorage and a little part is on cookies

I obtained the cookies using the dev tools functions because there are HttpOnly, and it can't be obtained through normal methods

async cookies() {
    const client = await this.pupPage.target().createCDPSession();
    let r = await client.send('Network.getAllCookies');
    return r.cookies;
}

But I'm unable to apply them, I'd tried with

page.setCookie()

But isn't working

Is it possible to run the library on a web server and have a client interface on the desktop?

In this case, the chromium instance would be on the desktop.

is giving this error when using the command npm i whatsapp-web.js

It's possible to received a file document and read filename or save that?
Thanks for the great work!

I greet Pedro lopez, yesterday you talk to me about the fact that I cannot refresh the browser due to the fact that the instance was erased in memory, now as I can simulate that from low, I mean working underneath all the actions that I want to do For example, the other day I talked to you on Twitter, how can I start the chat conversation, but you still haven't worked that method because of the fact that it is very busy. as I can simulate that page by console and execute the actions below what I want it to do. For example, I want to consume by the method I get a request and that that request I simulate from under that page and then I do all the kind of actions that I want to do, I don't know if I understand myself. also how can I fill in the window.Store variable again, because there has to be a way to do hehehe. @pedroslopez

Online presence should be sent out so that receivers can get accurate last seen time

I would like to know if it is possible to create submenus, for example:

1 - news
2 - support
3 - ...

you can create other menus within each number of that

Hi all, in last build cannot send pics, it throws error

Error: upload failed: media entry was not created

How to reproduce with example.js?

1. Send Pic to the bot
2. Reply to this pic with reply text !resendmedia

Hi! It's amazing how this project is growing.

I need to be able to archive or delete conversations. I don't find this feature implemented but it would be important because when there are a lot of conversations the page takes a long time to load and sometimes the timeouts expire.

Best regards
Gabriel

is there any possibility and implementation of this function?

The integration stopped working

Yesterday it didn't connect and returned an error that said "Protocol error" among other things, but at the moment I didn't copy the trace.

Today it still doesn't work but it no longer emits that error
I guess there have been changes to WhatsApp web

There in your api its getting me base64 of image which is not clear can we get original image for message.

Thanks Advance

When qr code scanned, a few second after that Client was logged out, what the problem with that ? @pedroslopez

I have used example.js but the qr is null, anyone have seen like this ?

It's possibile to send and receive photos? You can give an example?
Thanks for the great work!

I use this solution too (not yours but using Store).
If you plan to distribute this for any people on github, you should be aware that whatsapp can easily identify that you`re using Pupeteer for automation AND using the Store.

We use this method since 2017, and yes, using only as a chatbot, and still getting banned ...

An real-life example is MGP25 with his api, ( i know it connects directly to whatsapp servers and etc ). They know about him, whatsapp told about him in a anti-spam conference ...

So. If i was you, i would consider keeping this repository private, it garantees that this method will be available longer.

Dont read me wrong ;) as i said, just a advice

How can I send a message to someone from my contact list without having a Whatsapp conversation prior to that?
Basically I want to start a new chat with someone

I would like to know if there is any way to capture my own messages (sent by me)
Thank you.

Is there a way to fetch the read receipt information from a message id?

The information may be something like;

1. SENT
2. DELIVERED
3. READ

client.getState().then((data) => { 
        console.log(data)
    });

Boa tarde, gostaria de rodar em um servidor ubuntu, tem como iniciar a aplicação passando somente o objeto de sessão, sem ler o código QR?
se sim, como fazer?

en-us
Good afternoon, I would like to run on a ubuntu server, can I start the application by passing only the session object, without reading the QR code?
If so, how?

Code used in the sulla-hotfix project https://github.com/smashah/sulla/

{ id: "WapQuery", conditions: (module) => (module.queryExist) ? module : ((module.default && module.default.queryExist) ? module.default : null) },

/**

• Simulate '...typing' in the chat.
• @param {string} chatId '[email protected]'
• @param {boolean} on true to turn on similated typing, false to turn it off //you need to manually turn this off.
  */
  window.WAPI.simulateTyping = async function (chatId, on) {
  if (on) await Store.WapQuery.sendChatstateComposing(chatId)
  else await Store.WapQuery.sendChatstateComposing(chatId)

Hi, i am trying to setup this whatsapp API Javascript project.Below is how i setup my javascript code but i am getting no response. Is there anyone willing to help me or with a solution. Please help me i want to catch up with you.

What are some of the memory and CPU optimizations we could do maybe in terms of puppeteer flags and other for running this library at scale?
Let's say the use case requires to keep the user to be logged in most of the time say 24/7 from the server side of things to keep all incoming and outgoing messages syncing to a DB and suppose we are using an EC2 instance for hosting the application.
Also, Is using some other hosted service like browserless something you guys would recommend? I am really new to headless browser space and automation using them in general.

As mentioned in the title. Probable solution could be to have a predefined own Contact in case user is self or return the client.

Is this library capable of sending messages to numbers not currently saved in my contacts?

Hello person!

Is there a way for me to check if the Client is online / connected before forwarding messages?

When I receive a message the author is undefined even if they are in my contacts list

I would like to know the possibility of obtaining the updated QR Code without the need to restart the script.

As there is a listening for 'qr', I think he should forward new events as soon as he detects a new QR Code.

I need support for installing and initial configuring.
Can someone help me?Please contact me in Whatsapp +557581513790.
Very thanks!

How do I get an object of type GroupChat to be able to remove participants from the group?

I tried this:

let group = await client.getChatById("[email protected]");
await group.removeParticipants(["...","..."])

//Error: Evaluation failed: TypeError: Cannot read property 'removeParticipants' of undefined

Module raid cannot found any elements in Conn module. there is error Cannot read property 'default' of undefined @pedroslopez

Just a suggestion but adding a definitive config file for editing would make editing and pushing changes a lot easier. -> spaces / tabs

Hi, I need to read the an amount of latest messages from a chat.
This amount can be 50 for sample.
These messages can be new or old.
I rave trying some samples posted here as:
loadAndGetAllMessagesInChat, loadEarlierMessagesTillDate, loadAllEarlierMessages ans similares, but
nothing is working.
Is it possible?
Does someone could post a sample?

Is there a way to check if there is a chat with someone by their phone number?
There is something called getChats() but it seems that it doesen't work for me to retrieve the chats.

I started the project and logged in to Whatsapp.
The project is responding to messages.
But how do I send a message? Do I send the message through the console?

https://prnt.sc/r38ly1

Thank you for your help.

Looks like Web Whatsapp classes has been changed, moreover here is an error with injecting modules, to be exact the error is here store_id = modules[key].id.replace(/"/g, '"');, property id is not defined. @pedroslopez Can you help with it?

If I run multiple instances of the project on my server, can the server's IP be blocked?
How to deal with this situation, if this is a problem?
Thanks.

How can I use the received qr code show on html ?
