A Chrome extension that functions as a Hubot adapter for Whatsapp.
- Configure your Hubot to use the adapter
hubot-socket.io-adapter- If you're not running your Hubot in localhost, change the URL in
background.js
- If you're not running your Hubot in localhost, change the URL in
- Install this repository as a Chrome extension (how?)
- Open http://web.whatsapp.com in your browser and authenticate
- Open the conversation you want Hubot to respond to
- Note: DO NOT change conversations!
- Click the extension button (it looks like a puzzle piece)
When you click the button, it runs background.js. This script inserts inject.js into the web page.
inject is responsible for polling the conversation and detecting new messages. When a message is detected, it sends it to background, which in turns sends it to Hubot via a websocket.
If a response is received from Hubot, background sends that back to inject, which then puts the message in the compose box and clicks send.
It's pretty hacky and could break at any point.
Use at your own risk. Not responsible for any consequences, including, but not limited to, the banning of your WhatsApp account.
