Whatsapp bot using whatsapp web scraping

Getting Started #

We can use this library in Flutter as well as Pure dart projects , checkout pure dart_example in repo

First launch on Desktop apps will take some time, it will download chromium files locally, using puppeteer

Usage #

Get WhatsappClient using connect method

WhatsappClient? whatsappClient = await WhatsappBotFlutter.connect(
  onConnectionEvent: (ConnectionEvent event) {
    print(event.toString());
  },
  onQrCode: (String qr, Uint8List? imageBytes) {
    // use imageBytes to display in flutter : Image.memory(imageBytes)
    print(WhatsappBotFlutter.convertStringToQrCode(qr));
  },
);

To use for Android/IOS, first import whatsapp_bot_flutter_mobile, then create a WhatsappClient like this

WhatsappClient? whatsappClient = await WhatsappBotFlutterMobile.connect();

We have these modules to access whatsappClient features :

WhatsappClient.chat
WhatsappClient.contact
WhatsappClient.profile
WhatsappClient.group

Use sendTextMessage to send a text message

phone parameter can be of this format : countryCode+phoneNumber , eg : 91xxxxxxxxxx , or we can get phone from messageEvents in this format : countryCode+phone+"@c.us"

await whatsappClient.chat.sendTextMessage(
    phone: "------",
    message: "Test Message",
);

Use sendFileMessage to send a File

await whatsappClient.chat.sendFileMessage(
    phone: "------",
    fileBytes: fileBytes, // Pass file bytes
    caption: "Test Message", // Optional
    fileType: fileType, // document, image, audio
);

To get whatsapp connection Events , subscribe to whatsappClient.connectionEventStream

whatsappClient.connectionEventStream.listen((event) {
  // Connection Events : authenticated,logout,connected.....
});

To get new Messages

whatsappClient.on(WhatsappEvent.chat_new_message, (data) {
    List<Message> messages = Message.parse(data);
    // replyMessageId  is optional , add this to send a reply message
    whatsappClient.chat.sendTextMessage(
      phone: message.from,
      message: "Hey !",
      replyMessageId: message.id,
    );
});

We can listen to multiple events like this

whatsappClient.on(WhatsappEvent.EVENT_NAME, (data) {})

To stop listening to an event

whatsappClient.off(WhatsappEvent.EVENT_NAME);

Mobile Setup (Android/IOS) #

To setup on Android , make sure to checkout flutter_inappwebview documentation for Android and IOS setup Android sdk:minSdkVersion cannot be smaller than version 19

Desktop setup (Windows/Mac/Linux) #

For Macos , Enable outgoing and incoming connections, If getting sandbox issue , try disabling sandbox mode comment this out in macos/Runner/*.entitlements:

<key>com.apple.security.app-sandbox</key>
<true/>

Should run out of the box in Windows and Linux

Web setup #

checkout web demo app : https://rohitsangwan01.github.io/whatsapp_bot_flutter

To run natively on Web, checkout whatsapp_bot_flutter_web

We can use browserless, Create a free account there and get API_TOKEN from browserless, and use this url to connect : wss://chrome.browserless.io?token=API_TOKEN

Or we can run puppeteer, and get browserWsEndpoint from there and pass into the connect method, checkout this example

then pass this browserWsEndpoint in connect method, and also requires wppJsContent, we can download this file from here, add this file in assets and pass like this,

await WhatsappBotFlutter.connect(
    browserWsEndpoint: "BROWSER_WS_ENDPOINT_URL",
    wppJsContent: await rootBundle.loadString("assets/wpp.js"),
);

We can use this on Mobile or Desktop platforms as well , to connect to a chrome server hosted somewhere else

If we have to access this webSocket url locally on Mobile or other platforms , we can use ngrok to expose our local Websocket url to internet

Its just initial version, I can't guarantee you will not be blocked by using this method, try to avoid primary whatsapp numbers. WhatsApp does not allow bots or unofficial clients on their platform, so this shouldn't be considered totally safe.
