Buttons

To make use of buttons, you only need to call method sendMessageButton which is in ./controllers/send Example:

const { sendMessageButton } = require('./controllers/send')

await sendMessageButton(
    {
        "title":"¿Que te interesa ver?",
        "message":"Recuerda todo este contenido es gratis y estaria genial que me siguas!",
        "footer":"Gracias",
        "buttons":[
            {"body":"😎 Cursos"},
            {"body":"👉 Youtube"},
            {"body":"😁 Telegram"}
        ]
    }
)

Voice Notes

The bot can send voice notes using the native format so it doesn't appear as forwarded. In this example, I will send the file PTT-20220223-WA0000.opus which can be found in the directory /mediaSend

const { sendMediaVoiceNote } = require('./controllers/send')

await sendMediaVoiceNote(client, from, 'PTT-20220223-WA0000.opus')
