Deno 2.2 Improves Dependency Management and Expands Node.js Compatibility
Deno 2.2 enhances Node.js compatibility, improves dependency management, adds OpenTelemetry support, and expands linting and task automation for developers.
@juzi/whatsapp-web.js
Advanced tools
A WhatsApp API client that connects through the WhatsApp Web browser app
It uses Puppeteer to run a real instance of Whatsapp Web to avoid getting blocked.
NOTE: I can't guarantee you will not be blocked by using this method, although it has worked for me. WhatsApp does not allow bots or unofficial clients on their platform, so this shouldn't be considered totally safe.
The module is now available on npm! npm i whatsapp-web.js
Please note that Node v12+ is required.
const { Client } = require('whatsapp-web.js');
const client = new Client();
client.on('qr', (qr) => {
// Generate and scan this code with your phone
console.log('QR RECEIVED', qr);
});
client.on('ready', () => {
console.log('Client is ready!');
});
client.on('message', msg => {
if (msg.body == '!ping') {
msg.reply('pong');
}
});
client.initialize();
Take a look at example.js for another example with more use cases.
