The WhatsAppAPI Python package provides a comprehensive and easy-to-use interface for interacting with WhatsApp's API. This package enables developers to integrate WhatsApp messaging capabilities into their applications effortlessly. From sending texts, images, videos, and documents to handling media files and managing message databases, this package covers a wide range of functionalities to enhance communication solutions.
To install WhatsAppAPI, use pip:
pip install whatsappapi
To get started, import the WhatsAppAPI
class from the package and configure it with your mobile ID and API token.
from whatsapp_wrapper import WhatsAppAPI
api = WhatsAppAPI(mobile_id='your_mobile_id', api_token='your_api_token')
Sending a text message is straightforward:
api.send_text(to='recipient_number', message='Hello, World!')
To send an image:
api.send_image(to='recipient_number', image_id_or_url='image_url', caption='Check this out!')
If you want to save messages to a Firestore database, you need to provide
a DatabaseConfig
during initialization:
from whatsapp_wrapper.whatsapp_db import DatabaseConfig
db_config: DatabaseConfig = {
'credential_path': 'path/to/your/firestore/credential.json',
'backup_folder': 'path/to/backup/folder'
}
api = WhatsAppAPI(mobile_id='your_mobile_id', api_token='your_api_token', database_config=db_config)
Messages will then be automatically saved to the database.
You can provide a custom error handler function during initialization to handle API errors according to your application's requirements.
def custom_error_handler(response, data):
# Custom error handling logic
pass
api = WhatsAppAPI(mobile_id='your_mobile_id', api_token='your_api_token', error_handler=custom_error_handler)
