# @open-wa/node-red-contrib-wa-automate

> Various nodes to assist in setting up automation using [Node-RED](https://nodered.org/) communicating with [the open-wa EASY API](https://docs.openwa.dev/pages/Getting%20Started/quick-run.html).



## Getting Started

### Prerequisites

Have Node-RED installed and working, if you need to install Node-RED see [here](https://nodered.org/docs/getting-started/installation). Also ensure you have an authenticated and up-to-date EASY API session running with the `--socket` flag.

- [Node.js](https://nodejs.org) v14.15.0 or newer

- [NPM](https://nodejs.org) v7.12.0 or newer

- [Node-RED](https://nodered.org/) v1.0 or newer

- [wa-automate](https://openwa.dev/) v4.1.0 or newer

## Remote Session Setup

```bash

# Install open-wa

> npm i @open-wa/wa-automate@latest

# Use the CLI to launch an instance of the EASY API, make sure to add --socket flag

> npx @open-wa/wa-automate --socket -p 8080

# If this is the first time you are running the EASY API, you will need to scan the qr code.

```

PUPPETEER_SKIP_DOWNLOAD=true npm install @open-wa/node-red-contrib-wa-automate
