Weellu
An extended module for whatsapp-web.js 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 weellu

Example usage
const { Client, WelluMessage } = require('weellu');
const client = new Client();
let socket;
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!');
// Connect to Websocket
socket = io(SOCKET_URl, {transports: ['websocket']});
});
client.on('message', msg => {
if (msg.body == '!ping') {
msg.reply('pong');
}
});
//depending on your configuration of your nodeApplication
//By Socket.io
socket.on('message', msg => {
//whatsApp message from your database or json file
let wMessage = new WelluMessage(client, msg);
wMessage.reply("HI");
});
socket.on('deleteMessage', msg => {
//whatsApp message from your database or json file
let wMessage = new WelluMessage(client, msg);
//delete message
wMessage.delete(true);
});
//By express route
app.get('/message', (req, res) => {
let msg = req.body.message;//whatsApp message format
let wMessage = new WelluMessage(client, msg);
wMessage.reply("HI");
})
client.initialize();
Take a look at Message that explains clearly how you should format your message object, be for storing in your database or just a json file.
Take a look at example.js for another example with more use cases.
