feat(service): add support for whatsapp

matbgn opened this issue · 7 comments

Adding Whatsapp will be absolutely awesome.

Describe the solution you'd like

Based on the Notify service would it be possible to do this without huge work?

Closing this as its not possible with current implementation whatsapp with Notify.

Seeing all pour inputs, what will be the requirements to make it happen?

In other words what would be the macro steps to link PingMe CLI > Notify > WhatsApp ?

A PR was already opened by Kristina Kupreeva, untill the issue with whatsapp API is not fixed neither directly nor with Notify we can implement this.
Have a look at the comment here : #63 (comment)

Thank you for your quick answer. Did notice Kristina's work but wasn't really sure of were layed the problem at the end. Seems clearer now, so we just have to be patient or take a look at this API implementation.

Is there any chance to bridge PingMe directly with the Go library proposed as replacement? Or are we strongly binded with Notify?

Warning
This package is not being actively maintained currently and will soon be unusuable as WhatsApp updates to multi-device. Please look at tulir/whatsmeow for a Go WhatsApp Web API that is actively maintained and supports WhatsApp multi-device.

It is possible we already have a few services which do not use notify for integration.

OK thanks, good to know for the future also. In the mean time Niko Köser from Notify responded to my question about switching to another WhatsApp library. It seems that it is on his highest priority list, so we will first wait a few months before going any further:

@matbgn thank you very much for the report! And sorry for the inconvenience. I definitely want to keep the WhatsApp service alive, so I or someone else will take care of it as soon as possible.
