# Alexa WhatsApp Skill

This project uses Amazon Lambda and Amazon Alexa. It requires a corresponding lambda script to work.

This project uses the [yowsup](https://github.com/tgalal/yowsup) library.

#### Using this project may result in a WhatsApp account ban. Use with great caution.

## Building

Note: The project is developed using Python 2.7 and it is unsure whether it will work on Python 3.

Create your own `credentials.py` according to `credentials.example.py`

Run
```shell
pip install -r requirements.txt
python app.py
```

## Usage

Follow the instructions in yowsup to register. It has been pretty messy there.

Here is the most useful one:

Simply use yowsup-cli to request a code, register and entering the credentials into `credentials.py`.

To define an alias, modify `names.py`.
