TypeScript & Node.js WhatsApp Web API

Lightweight WhatsApp Web API • No Selenium • WebSocket-based • Multi-device Support

Based on @itsukichann's original work

🎯 Why Baileys?

🎪 Event Handling

📨 Basic Message Handler

import { Boom } from '@hapi/boom'
import makeWASocket, { DisconnectReason } from '@chatunitycenter/baileys'

async function connectToWhatsApp() {
    const { state, saveCreds } = await useMultiFileAuthState('./auth_info_baileys')
    const sock = makeWASocket({
        auth: state,
        printQRInTerminal: true
    })

    sock.ev.on('connection.update', (update) => {
        const { connection, lastDisconnect } = update
        if(connection === 'close') {
            const shouldReconnect = (lastDisconnect.error as Boom)?.output?.statusCode !== DisconnectReason.loggedOut
            if(shouldReconnect) connectToWhatsApp()
        } else if(connection === 'open') {
            console.log('Connected!')
        }
    })

    sock.ev.on('messages.upsert', async ({ messages }) => {
        for (const m of messages) {
            console.log('New message:', m.key.remoteJid)
            await sock.sendMessage(m.key.remoteJid!, { text: 'Hello World!' })
        }
    })

    sock.ev.on('creds.update', saveCreds)
}

        if(update.pollUpdates && key.fromMe) {
            const pollCreation = await store.loadMessage(key.remoteJid, key.id)
            if(pollCreation) {
                const pollUpdate = await getAggregateVotesInPollMessage({
                    message: pollCreation.message,
                    pollUpdates: update.pollUpdates,
