Wechaty Puppet for WeChat Official Accounts helps you use Wechaty to manage your Official Account from https://mp.weixin.qq.com.
- Provide webhook proxy out-of-the-box (powered by localtunnel)
This documentation assumes that you are familiar with Wechaty already.
If you are a newbie to Wechaty, please read the following two links first:
To use wechaty-puppet-official-account with Wechaty, just like other puppets as well:
import { Wechaty } from 'wechaty'
import { PuppetOA } from 'wechaty-puppet-official-account'
const oa = new PuppetOA({
appId : OA_APP_ID,
appSecret : OA_APP_SECRET,
token : OA_TOKEN,
webhookProxyUrl : 'https://aeb082b9-14da-4c91-bdef-90a6d17a4z98.localtunnel.me',
})
const bot = new Wechaty({
name: 'oa-bot',
puppet: oa,
})
bot.on('message', msg => {
if (!msg.self() && msg.type() === bot.Message.Type.Text && /ding/i.test(msg.text())) {
await msg.say('dong')
}
})
await bot.start()For the full source code, see: <examples/ding-dong-bot.ts>
That's it!
You can use environment variables to configure all of the WeChat Official Account Development Information.
Developer ID(AppID) is the developer ID, Official Account identification code, which can call Official Account API with the developer's password.
The Developer Password(AppSecret) is the one with high security to verify the identity of the Official Account developer.
The token is set by you for your server(URL) configuration.
Set WECHATY_PUPPET_OA_PORT to your local HTTP Server port number if you have a public server that can be visited from the internet.
After setting ``WECHATY_PUPPET_OA_PORT`, the puppet will expose itself to the internet with this port for providing the HTTP service.
Set WECHATY_PUPPET_OA_WEBHOOK_PROXY_URL to a localtunnel supported address so that you will be able to provide the Server Address(URL) for WebHook usage with this URL.
This is the most convenient way to use this puppet because you can always provide the same URL to the WeChat Official Account platform no matter where your program is running.
Currently, you can generate this URL by yourself by:
- Generate a UUIDv4 use a generator like UUID Online Generator
- Insert your $UUID to
https://${UUID}.localtunnel.me
For example, if your UUID is aeb082b9-14da-4c91-bdef-90a6d17a4z98, then you can use https://aeb082b9-14da-4c91-bdef-90a6d17a4z98.localtunnel.me as WECHATY_PUPPET_OA_WEBHOOK_PROXY_URL
