## Elevator Pitch
Wechaty is a conversational RPA SDK that simplifies the process of building chatbots. It's like a Swiss Army knife for chatbot development, providing a universal interface to various messaging platforms such as WhatsApp, WeChat, and more. With Wechaty, you write your bot code once, and it runs on any of the supported platforms. This means you can focus on creating engaging conversational experiences without worrying about the underlying complexities of each platform's API. It's open-source, easy to use, and backed by a vibrant community that's ready to help you bring your chatbot ideas to life.
## Connecting Chatbots
Wechaty is an RPA (Robotic Process Automation) SDK for Chatbot Makers which can help you create a bot in 6 lines of [JavaScript](https://GitHub.com/Wechaty/wechaty), [Python](https://GitHub.com/Wechaty/python-wechaty/), [Go](https://GitHub.com/Wechaty/go-wechaty/), and [Java](https://GitHub.com/Wechaty/java-wechaty/), with cross-platform support including [Linux, Windows, MacOS](https://github.com/wechaty/wechaty/actions?query=workflow%3ANPM), and [Docker](https://github.com/wechaty/wechaty/actions?query=workflow%3ADocker).

## :rocket: The World's Shortest ChatBot Code: 6 lines of JavaScript
```javascript
import { WechatyBuilder } from 'wechaty'
const wechaty = WechatyBuilder.build() // get a Wechaty instance
wechaty
.on('scan', (qrcode, status) => console.log(`Scan QR Code to login: ${status}\nhttps://wechaty.js.org/qrcode/${encodeURIComponent(qrcode)}`))
.on('login', user => console.log(`User ${user} logged in`))
.on('message', message => console.log(`Message: ${message}`))
wechaty.start()
```
> **Notice: Wechaty requires Node.js version >= 16**
This bot can log all messages to the console after login by the scan.
You can find Wechaty's Official Examples at [examples/ding-dong-bot.ts](examples/ding-dong-bot.ts) and more from our [Example Directory](https://github.com/Wechaty/wechaty-getting-started/blob/main/examples/).
## :checkered_flag: Requirements
1. Node.js version 16+
1. NPM version 7+
1. TypeScript version 4.4+
## Getting Started
[](https://nodejs.org/)
- Wechaty Starter Repository -
We have a Wechaty starter repository for beginners with the simplest setting. It will be **work** out-of-the-box after you `clone` & `npm install` & `npm start`.
If you are new to Wechaty and want to try it the first time, we'd like to strong recommend you starting from this repository, and using it as your starter template for your project.
Otherwise, please saved the above _The World's Shortest ChatBot Code: 6 lines of JavaScript_ example to a file named `bot.js` before you can use either NPM or Docker to run it.
### 1. Npm
[](https://www.npmjs.com/package/wechaty)
[](https://www.npmjs.com/package/wechaty?activeTab=versions)
[](https://www.npmjs.com/package/wechaty)
[](https://packagephobia.now.sh/result?p=wechaty)
```shell
npm init
npm install wechaty
# create your first bot.js file, you can copy/paste from the above "The World's Shortest ChatBot Code: 6 lines of JavaScript"
# then:
node bot.js
```
### 2. Docker
[](https://hub.docker.com/r/wechaty/wechaty/)
[](https://microbadger.com/#/images/wechaty/wechaty)
- Wechaty Starter Repository for Docker -
> Wechaty Docker supports both JavaScript and TypeScript. To use TypeScript just write in TypeScript and save with extension name `.ts`, no need to compile because we use `ts-node` to run it.
2.1. Run JavaScript
```shell
# for JavaScript
docker run -ti --rm --volume="$(pwd)":/bot wechaty/wechaty bot.js
```
2.2. Run TypeScript
```shell
# for TypeScript
docker run -ti --rm --volume="$(pwd)":/bot wechaty/wechaty bot.ts
```
> Learn more about Wechaty Docker at [Wiki:Docker](https://github.com/Wechaty/wechaty/wiki/Docker).
### 3. Switch Protocol(Puppet)
Wechaty is very powerful that it can run over different protocols. You can specify the protocol by set the environment variable `WECHATY_PUPPET` to different puppet provider.
If you cannot use Web protocol, you can apply other protocols following the instruction here: We provide free token to support developers build a valuable WeChat chatbot.
Currently we support the following [puppet providers](https://wechaty.js.org/docs/puppet-services/) :
| Protocol | Puppet Provider | Environment Variable |

Wechaty is fully automatically tested by unit and integration tests, with Continuous Integration & Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) support powered by CI like Travis, Shippable and Appveyor.
To test Wechaty, run:
```shell
npm test
```
Get to know more about the tests from [Wiki:Tests](https://github.com/Wechaty/wechaty/wiki/Tests)
## CREATING WECHATY PLUGIN
Creating and publishing a Wechaty Plugin is simple. Simply expose your module as a function that takes 1 parameter: wechaty. When your plugin is imported by Wechaty, it will pass itself in as the argument, and so you are free to add any configuration that Wechaty supports.
```ts
import { WechatyPlugin } from 'wechaty'
export default const MyPlugin: WechatyPlugin = (wechaty: Wechaty) => {
// ...
}
```
The `config` exist so the user can pass in customizations to your Plugin. In documenting your Wechaty Plugin, you would lay out your supported config for the user.
See:

## :innocent: Find a Good Server
The best practice for running Wechaty Docker/NPM is using a VPS(Virtual Private Server) outside of China, which can save you hours of time because `npm install` and `docker pull` will run smoothly without any problem.
The following VPS providers are used by the Wechaty team, and they worked perfectly in production. You can use the following link to get one in minutes. Also, doing this can support Wechaty because you are referred by us.
| Location | Price | Ram | Payment | Provider |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Singapore | $5 | 512MB | Paypal | [DigitalOcean](https://m.do.co/c/01a54778df5c) |
| Japan | $5 | 1GB | Paypal | [Linode](https://www.linode.com/?r=5fd2b713d711746bb5451111df0f2b6d863e9f63) |
| Korea | $10 | 1GB | Alipay, Paypal | [Netdedi](https://www.netdedi.com/?affid=35) |

## :poop: The Story
In 2017 ...
Huan's daily life/work depends on too much chat on wechat.
- Almost 14,000 wechat friends in May 2014, before wechat restricts a total number of friends to 5,000.
- Almost 400 wechat rooms, and most of them have more than 400 members.
Can you imagine that? He was dying...
So a tireless bot working for me 24x7 on wechat, monitoring/filtering the most important message is badly needed. For example, it highlights discussion which contains the KEYWORDS which he want to follow up(especially in a noisy room). ;-)
At last, It's built for huan's personal study purpose of Automatically Testing.
