> npm i --save venom-bot
// Supports ES6
// import { create, Whatsapp } from 'venom-bot';
const venom = require('venom-bot');
venom
.create()
.then((client) => start(client))
.catch((erro) => {
console.log(erro);
});
function start(client) {
client.onMessage((message) => {
if (message.body === 'Hi' && message.isGroupMsg === false) {
client
.sendText(message.from, 'Welcome Venom 🕷')
.then((result) => {
console.log('Result: ', result); //return object success
})
.catch((erro) => {
console.error('Error when sending: ', erro); //return object error
});
}
});
}
After executing create()
function, venom will create an instance of whatsapp web. If you are not logged in, it will print a QR code in the terminal. Scan it with your phone and you are ready to go!
// Init sales whatsapp bot
venom.create('sales').then((salesClient) => {...});
// Init support whatsapp bot
venom.create('support').then((supportClient) => {...});
Venom create()
method third parameter can have the following optional parameters:
const venom = require('venom-bot');
venom
.create(
'sessionName',
(base64Qrimg, asciiQR) => {
console.log('Terminal qrcode: ', asciiQR);
console.log('base64 image string qrcode: ', base64Qrimg);
},
(statusSession) => {
console.log('Status Session: ', statusSession); //return isLogged || notLogged || browserClose || qrReadSuccess || qrReadFail || autocloseCalled
},
{
folderNameToken: "tokens", //folder name when saving tokens
mkdirFolderToken: '', //folder directory tokens, just inside the venom folder, example: { mkdirFolderToken: '/node_modules', } //will save the tokens folder in the node_modules directory
headless: true, // Headless chrome
devtools: false, // Open devtools by default
useChrome: true, // If false will use Chromium instance
debug: false, // Opens a debug session
logQR: true, // Logs QR automatically in terminal
browserArgs: [''], // Parameters to be added into the chrome browser instance
disableSpins: true, // Will disable Spinnies animation, useful for containers (docker) for a better log
disableWelcome: true, // Will disable the welcoming message which appears in the beginning
updates: true, // Logs info updates automatically in terminal
autoClose: 60000, // Automatically closes the venom-bot only when scanning the QR code (default 60 seconds, if you want to turn it off, assign 0 or false)
}
)
.then((client) => {
start(client);
})
.catch((erro) => {
console.log(erro);
});
Gets the return if the session is isLogged
or notLogged
or browserClose
or qrReadSuccess
or qrReadFail
or autocloseCalled
notLogged: When the user is not connected to the browser, it is necessary to scan the QR code through the cell phone in the option WharsApp Web
.
qrReadSuccess: if the user is not logged in, the QR code is passed on the terminal a callback is returned. After the correct reading by cell phone this parameter is returned
.
const venom = require('venom-bot');
venom
.create(
'sessionName',
undefined,
(statusSession) => {
console.log('Status Session: ', statusSession);
//return isLogged || notLogged || browserClose || qrReadSuccess || qrReadFail || autocloseCalled
},
undefined
)
.then((client) => {
start(client);
})
.catch((erro) => {
console.log(erro);
});
By default QR code will appear on the terminal. If you need to pass the QR somewhere else heres how:
const fs = require('fs');
const venom = require('venom-bot');
venom
.create(
'sessionName',
(base64Qr, asciiQR) => {
console.log(asciiQR); // Opcional to log the QR in the terminal
var matches = base64Qr.match(/^data:([A-Za-z-+\/]+);base64,(.+)$/),
response = {};
if (matches.length !== 3) {
return new Error('Invalid input string');
}
response.type = matches[1];
response.data = new Buffer.from(matches[2], 'base64');
var imageBuffer = response;
require('fs').writeFile(
'out.png',
imageBuffer['data'],
'binary',
function (err) {
if (err != null) {
console.log(err);
}
}
);
},
undefined,
{ logQR: false }
)
.then((client) => {
start(client);
})
.catch((erro) => {
console.log(erro);
});
Puppeteer takes care of the file downloading. The decryption is being done as fast as possible (outruns native methods). Supports big files!
import fs = require('fs');
import mime = require('mime-types');
client.onMessage( async (message) => {
if (message.isMedia === true || message.isMMS === true) {
const buffer = await client.decryptFile(message);
// At this point you can do whatever you want with the buffer
// Most likely you want to write it into a file
const fileName = `some-file-name.${mime.extension(message.mimetype)}`;
await fs.writeFile(fileName, buffer, (err) => {
...
});
}
});

There are some tricks for a better usage of venom.
// In case of being logged out of whatsapp web
// Force it to keep the current session
// State change
client.onStateChange((state) => {
console.log(state);
const conflits = [
venom.SocketState.CONFLICT,
venom.SocketState.UNPAIRED,
venom.SocketState.UNLAUNCHED,
];
if (conflits.includes(state)) {
client.useHere();
}
});
If you need to run multiple sessions at once just pass a session name to
create()
method, not use hyphen for name of sessions.
async () => {
const marketingClient = await venom.create('marketing');
const salesClient = await venom.create('sales');
const supportClient = await venom.create('support');
};
Close the session properly to ensure the session is saved for the next time you log in (So it wont ask for QR scan again). So instead of CTRL+C,
// Catch ctrl+C
process.on('SIGINT', function() {
client.close();
});
// Try-catch close
try {
...
} catch (error) {
client.close();
}
The auto close is enabled by default and the timeout is setted to 60 sec. Receives the time in milliseconds to countdown until paired.
Use "autoClose: 0 | false" to disable auto closing.
Building venom is really simple altough it contians 3 main projects inside
- Wapi project
> npm run build:wapi
- Middleeware
> npm run build:middleware
> npm run build:jsQR
- Venom
> npm run build:venom
To build the entire project just run
> npm run build
Maintainers are needed, I cannot keep with all the updates by myself. If you are interested please open a Pull Request.
Pull requests are welcome. For major changes, please open an issue first to discuss what you would like to change.
