whatsmeow

Go Reference

whatsmeow is a Go library for the WhatsApp web multidevice API.

Discussion

Matrix room: #whatsmeow:maunium.net

For questions about the WhatsApp protocol (like how to send a specific type of message), you can also use the WhatsApp protocol Q&A section on GitHub discussions.

Usage

The godoc includes docs for all methods and event types. There's also a simple example at the top.

Also see mdtest for a CLI tool you can easily try out whatsmeow with.

Features

Most core features are already present:

  • Sending messages to private chats and groups (both text and media)
  • Receiving all messages
  • Managing groups and receiving group change events
  • Joining via invite messages, using and creating invite links
  • Sending and receiving typing notifications
  • Sending and receiving delivery and read receipts
  • Reading and writing app state (contact list, chat pin/mute status, etc)
  • Sending and handling retry receipts if message decryption fails
  • Sending status messages (experimental, may not work for large contact lists)

Things that are not yet implemented:

  • Sending broadcast list messages (this is not supported on WhatsApp web either)
  • Calls

Overview

Package whatsmeow implements a client for interacting with the WhatsApp web multidevice API.

Example 
package main

import (
	"context"
	"fmt"
	"os"
	"os/signal"
	"syscall"

	"github.com/shouyinsun/whatsmeow/store/sqlstore"
	"github.com/shouyinsun/whatsmeow/types/events"
	waLog "github.com/shouyinsun/whatsmeow/util/log"
	"go.mau.fi/whatsmeow"
)

func eventHandler(evt interface{}) {
	switch v := evt.(type) {
	case *events.Message:
		fmt.Println("Received a message!", v.Message.GetConversation())
	}
}

func main() {
	dbLog := waLog.Stdout("Database", "DEBUG", true)
	// Make sure you add appropriate DB connector imports, e.g. github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3 for SQLite
	container, err := sqlstore.New("sqlite3", "file:examplestore.db?_foreign_keys=on", dbLog)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	// If you want multiple sessions, remember their JIDs and use .GetDevice(jid) or .GetAllDevices() instead.
	deviceStore, err := container.GetFirstDevice()
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	clientLog := waLog.Stdout("Client", "DEBUG", true)
	client := whatsmeow.NewClient(deviceStore, clientLog)
	client.AddEventHandler(eventHandler)

	if client.Store.ID == nil {
		// No ID stored, new login
		qrChan, _ := client.GetQRChannel(context.Background())
		err = client.Connect()
		if err != nil {
			panic(err)
		}
		for evt := range qrChan {
			if evt.Event == "code" {
				// Render the QR code here
				// e.g. qrterminal.GenerateHalfBlock(evt.Code, qrterminal.L, os.Stdout)
				// or just manually `echo 2@... | qrencode -t ansiutf8` in a terminal
				fmt.Println("QR code:", evt.Code)
			} else {
				fmt.Println("Login event:", evt.Event)
			}
		}
	} else {
		// Already logged in, just connect
		err = client.Connect()
		if err != nil {
			panic(err)
		}
	}

	// Listen to Ctrl+C (you can also do something else that prevents the program from exiting)
	c := make(chan os.Signal)
	signal.Notify(c, os.Interrupt, syscall.SIGTERM)
	<-c

	client.Disconnect()
}

Functions

func DecryptMediaRetryNotification 

func DecryptMediaRetryNotification(evt *events.MediaRetry, mediaKey []byte) (*waProto.MediaRetryNotification, error)

DecryptMediaRetryNotification decrypts a media retry notification using the media key. See Client.SendMediaRetryReceipt for more info on how to use this.

func GenerateMessageID deprecated 

func GenerateMessageID() types.MessageID

func NewClient 

func NewClient(deviceStore *store.Device, log waLog.Logger) *Client

NewClient initializes a new WhatsApp web client.

The logger can be nil, it will default to a no-op logger.

The device store must be set. A default SQL-backed implementation is available in the store/sqlstore package. 

container, err := sqlstore.New("sqlite3", "file:yoursqlitefile.db?_foreign_keys=on", nil)
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}
// If you want multiple sessions, remember their JIDs and use .GetDevice(jid) or .GetAllDevices() instead.
deviceStore, err := container.GetFirstDevice()
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}
client := whatsmeow.NewClient(deviceStore, nil)

func (*Client) AddEventHandler 

func (cli *Client) AddEventHandler(handler EventHandler) uint32

AddEventHandler registers a new function to receive all events emitted by this client.

The returned integer is the event handler ID, which can be passed to RemoveEventHandler to remove it.

All registered event handlers will receive all events. You should use a type switch statement to filter the events you want: 

func myEventHandler(evt interface{}) {
	switch v := evt.(type) {
	case *events.Message:
		fmt.Println("Received a message!")
	case *events.Receipt:
		fmt.Println("Received a receipt!")
	}
}

If you want to access the Client instance inside the event handler, the recommended way is to wrap the whole handler in another struct: 

type MyClient struct {
	WAClient *whatsmeow.Client
	eventHandlerID uint32
}

func (mycli *MyClient) register() {
	mycli.eventHandlerID = mycli.WAClient.AddEventHandler(mycli.myEventHandler)
}

func (mycli *MyClient) myEventHandler(evt interface{}) {
	// Handle event and access mycli.WAClient
}

func (cli *Client) BuildPollCreation(name string, optionNames []string, selectableOptionCount int) *waProto.Message

BuildPollCreation builds a poll creation message with the given poll name, options and maximum number of selections. The built message can be sent normally using Client.SendMessage. 

resp, err := cli.SendMessage(context.Background(), chat, cli.BuildPollCreation("meow?", []string{"yes", "no"}, 1))

func (*Client) BuildPollVote 

func (cli *Client) BuildPollVote(pollInfo *types.MessageInfo, optionNames []string) (*waProto.Message, error)

BuildPollVote builds a poll vote message using the given poll message info and option names. The built message can be sent normally using Client.SendMessage.

		return
	}
	resp, err := cli.SendMessage(context.Background(), evt.Info.Chat, pollVoteMsg)
}

func (*Client) BuildReaction 

func (cli *Client) BuildReaction(chat, sender types.JID, id types.MessageID, reaction string) *waProto.Message

func (*Client) BuildRevoke 

func (cli *Client) BuildRevoke(chat, sender types.JID, id types.MessageID) *waProto.Message

BuildRevoke builds a message revocation message using the given variables. The built message can be sent normally using Client.SendMessage.

To revoke your own messages, pass your JID or an empty JID as the second parameter (sender). 

resp, err := cli.SendMessage(context.Background(), chat, cli.BuildRevoke(chat, types.EmptyJID, originalMessageID)

To revoke someone else's messages when you are group admin, pass the message sender's JID as the second parameter.

The built message can be sent using Client.SendMessage, but you must pass whatsmeow.SendRequestExtra{Peer: true} as the last parameter. The full response will come as a ProtocolMessage with type `PEER_DATA_OPERATION_REQUEST_RESPONSE_MESSAGE`. The response events will also be dispatched as normal *events.Message's with UnavailableRequestID set to the request message ID.

func (*Client) CheckUpdate 

func (cli *Client) CheckUpdate() (respData CheckUpdateResponse, err error)

CheckUpdate asks the WhatsApp servers if there is an update available (using the HTTP client and proxy settings of this whatsmeow Client instance).

func (*Client) Connect

if evt.Message.GetPollUpdateMessage() != nil {
	pollVote, err := cli.DecryptPollVote(evt)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(":(", err)
		return
	}
	fmt.Println("Selected hashes:")
	for _, hash := range pollVote.GetSelectedOptions() {
		fmt.Printf("- %X\n", hash)
	}
}

func (*Client) DecryptReaction 

func (cli *Client) DecryptReaction(reaction *events.Message) (*waProto.ReactionMessage, error)

DecryptReaction decrypts a reaction update message. This form of reactions hasn't been rolled out yet, so this function is likely not of much use. 

if evt.Message.GetEncReactionMessage() != nil {
	reaction, err := cli.DecryptReaction(evt)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(":(", err)
		return
	}
	fmt.Printf("Reaction message: %+v\n", reaction)
}

func (*Client) Disconnect 

func (cli *Client) Disconnect()

Disconnect disconnects from the WhatsApp web websocket.

This will not emit any events, the Disconnected event is only used when the connection is closed by the server or a network error.

func (*Client) Download 

func (cli *Client) Download(msg DownloadableMessage) ([]byte, error)

Download downloads the attachment from the given protobuf message.

The attachment is a specific part of a Message protobuf struct, not the message itself, e.g. 

var msg *waProto.Message
...
imageData, err := cli.Download(msg.GetImageMessage())

You can also use DownloadAny to download the first non-nil sub-message.

...
thumbnailImageBytes, err := cli.DownloadThumbnail(msg.GetExtendedTextMessage())

func (*Client) EncryptPollVote 

func (cli *Client) EncryptPollVote(pollInfo *types.MessageInfo, vote *waProto.PollVoteMessage) (*waProto.PollUpdateMessage, error)

EncryptPollVote encrypts a poll vote message. This is a slightly lower-level function, using BuildPollVote is recommended.

func (*Client) FetchAppState 

func (cli *Client) FetchAppState(name appstate.WAPatchName, fullSync, onlyIfNotSynced bool) error

FetchAppState fetches updates to the given type of app state. If fullSync is true, the current cached state will be removed and all app state patches will be re-fetched from the server.

func (*Client) GenerateMessageID 

func (cli *Client) GenerateMessageID() types.MessageID

GetContactQRLink gets your own contact share QR link that can be resolved using ResolveContactQRLink (or scanned with the official apps when encoded as a QR code).

If the revoke parameter is set to true, it will ask the server to revoke the previous link and generate a new one.

func (*Client) GetGroupInfo 

func (cli *Client) GetGroupInfo(jid types.JID) (*types.GroupInfo, error)

GetGroupInfo requests basic info about a group chat from the WhatsApp servers.

GetProfilePictureInfo gets the URL where you can download a WhatsApp user's profile picture or group's photo.

Optionally, you can pass the last known profile picture ID. If the profile picture hasn't changed, this will return nil with no error.

To get a community photo, you should pass `IsCommunity: true`, as otherwise you may get a 401 error.

func (*Client) GetQRChannel 

func (cli *Client) GetQRChannel(ctx context.Context) (<-chan QRChannelItem, error)

GetQRChannel returns a channel that automatically outputs a new QR code when the previous one expires.

This must be called *before* Connect(). It will then listen to all the relevant events from the client.

The last value to be emitted will be a special event like "success", "timeout" or another error code depending on the result of the pairing. The channel will be closed immediately after one of those.

func (*Client) GetStatusPrivacy 

func (cli *Client) GetStatusPrivacy() ([]types.StatusPrivacy, error)

GetStatusPrivacy gets the user's status privacy settings (who to send status broadcasts to).

There can be multiple different stored settings, the first one is always the default.

func (*Client) JoinGroupWithInvite 

func (cli *Client) JoinGroupWithInvite(jid, inviter types.JID, code string, expiration int64) error

JoinGroupWithInvite joins a group using an invite message.

Note that this is specifically for invite messages, not invite links. Use JoinGroupWithLink for joining with chat.whatsapp.com links. 

func (cli *Client) JoinGroupWithLink(code string) (types.JID, error)

JoinGroupWithLink joins the group using the given invite link.

func (*Client) LeaveGroup

func (*Client) LinkGroup 

func (cli *Client) LinkGroup(parent, child types.JID) error

LinkGroup adds an existing group as a child group in a community.

To create a new group within a community, set LinkedParentJID in the CreateGroup request.

func (*Client) Logout 

func (cli *Client) Logout() error

Logout sends a request to unlink the device, then disconnects from the websocket and deletes the local device store.

If the logout request fails, the disconnection and local data deletion will not happen either. If an error is returned, but you want to force disconnect/clear data, call Client.Disconnect() and Client.Store.Delete() manually.

Note that this will not emit any events. The LoggedOut event is only used for external logouts (triggered by the user from the main device or by WhatsApp servers).

func (*Client) MarkRead 

func (cli *Client) MarkRead(ids []types.MessageID, timestamp time.Time, chat, sender types.JID) error

MarkRead sends a read receipt for the given message IDs including the given timestamp as the read at time.

The first JID parameter (chat) must always be set to the chat ID (user ID in DMs and group ID in group chats). The second JID parameter (sender) must be set in group chats and must be the user ID who sent the message.

You can mark multiple messages as read at the same time, but only if the messages were sent by the same user. To mark messages by different users as read, you must call MarkRead multiple times (once for each user).

func (*Client) PairPhone 

func (cli *Client) PairPhone(phone string, showPushNotification bool, clientType PairClientType, clientDisplayName string) (string, error)

PairPhone generates a pairing code that can be used to link to a phone without scanning a QR code.

The exact expiry of pairing codes is unknown, but QR codes are always generated and the login websocket is closed after the QR codes run out, which means there's a 160-second time limit. It is recommended to generate the pairing code immediately after connecting to the websocket to have the maximum time.

The clientType parameter must be one of the PairClient* constants, but which one doesn't matter. The client display name must be formatted as `Browser (OS)`, and only common browsers/OSes are allowed (the server will validate it and return 400 if it's wrong).

See https://faq.whatsapp.com/1324084875126592 for more info

func (*Client) ParseWebMessage 

func (cli *Client) ParseWebMessage(chatJID types.JID, webMsg *waProto.WebMessageInfo) (*events.Message, error)

ParseWebMessage parses a WebMessageInfo object into *events.Message to match what real-time messages have.

The chat JID can be found in the Conversation data: 

chatJID, err := types.ParseJID(conv.GetId())
for _, historyMsg := range conv.GetMessages() {
	evt, err := cli.ParseWebMessage(chatJID, historyMsg.GetMessage())
	yourNormalEventHandler(evt)
}

func (*Client) RemoveEventHandler 

func (cli *Client) RemoveEventHandler(id uint32) bool

RemoveEventHandler removes a previously registered event handler function. If the function with the given ID is found, this returns true.

N.B. Do not run this directly from an event handler. That would cause a deadlock because the event dispatcher holds a read lock on the event handler list, and this method wants a write lock on the same list. Instead run it in a goroutine: 

func (mycli *MyClient) myEventHandler(evt interface{}) {
	if noLongerWantEvents {
		go mycli.WAClient.RemoveEventHandler(mycli.eventHandlerID)
	}
}

func (*Client) RemoveEventHandlers

The links look like https://wa.me/message/<code> or https://api.whatsapp.com/message/<code>. You can either provide the full link, or just the <code> part. 

func (cli *Client) ResolveContactQRLink(code string) (*types.ContactQRLinkTarget, error)

ResolveContactQRLink resolves a link from a contact share QR code and returns the target JID and push name.

The links look like https://wa.me/qr/<code> or https://api.whatsapp.com/qr/<code>. You can either provide the full link, or just the <code> part.

func (*Client) RevokeMessage deprecated 

func (cli *Client) RevokeMessage(chat types.JID, id types.MessageID) (SendResponse, error)

RevokeMessage deletes the given message from everyone in the chat.

This method will wait for the server to acknowledge the revocation message before returning. The return value is the timestamp of the message from the server.

Deprecated: This method is deprecated in favor of BuildRevoke

func (*Client) SendAppState 

func (cli *Client) SendAppState(patch appstate.PatchInfo) error

SendAppState sends the given app state patch, then resyncs that app state type from the server to update local caches and send events for the updates.

You can use the Build methods in the appstate package to build the parameter for this method, e.g. 

cli.SendAppState(appstate.BuildMute(targetJID, true, 24 * time.Hour))

func (*Client) SendChatPresence 

func (cli *Client) SendChatPresence(jid types.JID, state types.ChatPresence, media types.ChatPresenceMedia) error

SendChatPresence updates the user's typing status in a specific chat.

The media parameter can be set to indicate the user is recording media (like a voice message) rather than typing a text message.

func (*Client) SendMediaRetryReceipt 

func (cli *Client) SendMediaRetryReceipt(message *types.MessageInfo, mediaKey []byte) error

SendMediaRetryReceipt sends a request to the phone to re-upload the media in a message.

This is mostly relevant when handling history syncs and getting a 404 or 410 error downloading media. Rough example on how to use it (will not work out of the box, you must adjust it depending on what you need exactly): 

var mediaRetryCache map[types.MessageID]*waProto.ImageMessage

evt, err := cli.ParseWebMessage(chatJID, historyMsg.GetMessage())
imageMsg := evt.Message.GetImageMessage() // replace this with the part of the message you want to download
data, err := cli.Download(imageMsg)
if errors.Is(err, whatsmeow.ErrMediaDownloadFailedWith404) || errors.Is(err, whatsmeow.ErrMediaDownloadFailedWith410) {
  err = cli.SendMediaRetryReceipt(&evt.Info, imageMsg.GetMediaKey())
  // You need to store the event data somewhere as it's necessary for handling the retry response.
  mediaRetryCache[evt.Info.ID] = imageMsg
}

The response will come as an *events.MediaRetry. The response will then have to be decrypted using DecryptMediaRetryNotification and the same media key passed here. If the media retry was successful, the decrypted notification should contain an updated DirectPath, which can be used to download the file. 

func eventHandler(rawEvt interface{}) {
  switch evt := rawEvt.(type) {
  case *events.MediaRetry:
    imageMsg := mediaRetryCache[evt.MessageID]
    retryData, err := whatsmeow.DecryptMediaRetryNotification(evt, imageMsg.GetMediaKey())
    if err != nil || retryData.GetResult != waProto.MediaRetryNotification_SUCCESS {
      return
    }
    // Use the new path to download the attachment
    imageMsg.DirectPath = retryData.DirectPath
    data, err := cli.Download(imageMsg)
    // Alternatively, you can use cli.DownloadMediaWithPath and provide the individual fields manually.
  }
}

func (*Client) SendMessage 

func (cli *Client) SendMessage(ctx context.Context, to types.JID, message *waProto.Message, extra ...SendRequestExtra) (resp SendResponse, err error)

SendMessage sends the given message.

This method will wait for the server to acknowledge the message before returning. The return value is the timestamp of the message from the server.

Optional parameters like the message ID can be specified with the SendRequestExtra struct. Only one extra parameter is allowed, put all necessary parameters in the same struct.

The message itself can contain anything you want (within the protobuf schema). e.g. for a simple text message, use the Conversation field: 

cli.SendMessage(context.Background(), targetJID, &waProto.Message{
	Conversation: proto.String("Hello, World!"),
})

Things like replies, mentioning users and the "forwarded" flag are stored in ContextInfo, which can be put in ExtendedTextMessage and any of the media message types.

For uploading and sending media/attachments, see the Upload method.

For other message types, you'll have to figure it out yourself. Looking at the protobuf schema in binary/proto/def.proto may be useful to find out all the allowed fields. Printing the RawMessage field in incoming message events to figure out what it contains is also a good way to learn how to send the same kind of message.

func (*Client) SendPresence 

func (cli *Client) SendPresence(state types.Presence) error

SendPresence updates the user's presence status on WhatsApp.

You should call this at least once after connecting so that the server has your pushname. Otherwise, other users will see "-" as the name.

func (*Client) SetDisappearingTimer 

func (cli *Client) SetDisappearingTimer(chat types.JID, timer time.Duration) (err error)

SetDisappearingTimer sets the disappearing timer in a chat. Both private chats and groups are supported, but they're set with different methods.

Note that while this function allows passing non-standard durations, official WhatsApp apps will ignore those, and in groups the server will just reject the change. You can use the DisappearingTimer<Duration> constants for convenience.

In groups, the server will echo the change as a notification, so it'll show up as a *events.GroupInfo update.

func (*Client) SetForceActiveDeliveryReceipts 

func (cli *Client) SetForceActiveDeliveryReceipts(active bool)

SetForceActiveDeliveryReceipts will force the client to send normal delivery receipts (which will show up as the two gray ticks on WhatsApp), even if the client isn't marked as online.

By default, clients that haven't been marked as online will send delivery receipts with type="inactive", which is transmitted to the sender, but not rendered in the official WhatsApp apps. This is consistent with how WhatsApp web works when it's not in the foreground.

To mark the client as online, use 

cli.SendPresence(types.PresenceAvailable)

Note that if you turn this off (i.e. call SetForceActiveDeliveryReceipts(false)), receipts will act like the client is offline until SendPresence is called again.

func (*Client) SetGroupAnnounce 

func (cli *Client) SetGroupAnnounce(jid types.JID, announce bool) error

SetGroupAnnounce changes whether the group is in announce mode (i.e. whether only admins can send messages).

func (*Client) SetGroupTopic 

func (cli *Client) SetGroupTopic(jid types.JID, previousID, newID, topic string) error

SetGroupTopic updates the topic (description) of the given group on WhatsApp.

The previousID and newID fields are optional. If the previous ID is not specified, this will automatically fetch the current group info to find the previous topic ID. If the new ID is not specified, one will be generated with Client.GenerateMessageID().

func (*Client) SetPassive 

func (cli *Client) SetPassive(passive bool) error

SetPassive tells the WhatsApp server whether this device is passive or not.

This seems to mostly affect whether the device receives certain events. By default, whatsmeow will automatically do SetPassive(false) after connecting.

func (*Client) SetProxy 

func (cli *Client) SetProxy(proxy socket.Proxy)

SetProxy sets the proxy to use for WhatsApp web websocket connections and media uploads/downloads.

Must be called before Connect() to take effect in the websocket connection. If you want to change the proxy after connecting, you must call Disconnect() and then Connect() again manually.

By default, the client will find the proxy from the https_proxy environment variable like Go's net/http does.

To disable reading proxy info from environment variables, explicitly set the proxy to nil: 

cli.SetProxy(nil)

To use a different proxy for the websocket and media, pass a function that checks the request path or headers: 

cli.SetProxy(func(r *http.Request) (*url.URL, error) {
	if r.URL.Host == "web.whatsapp.com" && r.URL.Path == "/ws/chat" {
		return websocketProxyURL, nil
	} else {
		return mediaProxyURL, nil
	}
})

func (*Client) SetProxyAddress 

func (cli *Client) SetProxyAddress(addr string) error

SetProxyAddress is a helper method that parses a URL string and calls SetProxy.

Returns an error if url.Parse fails to parse the given address.

func (*Client) SetStatusMessage 

func (cli *Client) SetStatusMessage(msg string) error

SetStatusMessage updates the current user's status text, which is shown in the "About" section in the user profile.

This is different from the ephemeral status broadcast messages. Use SendMessage to types.StatusBroadcastJID to send such messages.

func (*Client) SubscribePresence 

func (cli *Client) SubscribePresence(jid types.JID) error

SubscribePresence asks the WhatsApp servers to send presence updates of a specific user to this client.

After subscribing to this event, you should start receiving *events.Presence for that user in normal event handlers.

Also, it seems that the WhatsApp servers require you to be online to receive presence status from other users, so you should mark yourself as online before trying to use this function: 

cli.SendPresence(types.PresenceAvailable)

func (*Client) TryFetchPrivacySettings 

func (cli *Client) TryFetchPrivacySettings(ignoreCache bool) (*types.PrivacySettings, error)

TryFetchPrivacySettings will fetch the user's privacy settings, either from the in-memory cache or from the server.

func (*Client) Upload 

func (cli *Client) Upload(ctx context.Context, plaintext []byte, appInfo MediaType) (resp UploadResponse, err error)

Upload uploads the given attachment to WhatsApp servers.

You should copy the fields in the response to the corresponding fields in a protobuf message.

For example, to send an image: 

resp, err := cli.Upload(context.Background(), yourImageBytes, whatsmeow.MediaImage)
// handle error

imageMsg := &waProto.ImageMessage{
	Caption:  proto.String("Hello, world!"),
	Mimetype: proto.String("image/png"), // replace this with the actual mime type
	// you can also optionally add other fields like ContextInfo and JpegThumbnail here

	Url:           &resp.URL,
	DirectPath:    &resp.DirectPath,
	MediaKey:      resp.MediaKey,
	FileEncSha256: resp.FileEncSHA256,
	FileSha256:    resp.FileSha256,
	FileLength:    &resp.FileLength,
}
_, err = cli.SendMessage(context.Background(), targetJID, &waProto.Message{
	ImageMessage: imageMsg,
})
// handle error again

The same applies to the other message types like DocumentMessage, just replace the struct type and Message field name.

ReqCreateGroup contains the request data for CreateGroup.

type SendRequestExtra 

type SendRequestExtra struct {
	// The message ID to use when sending. If this is not provided, a random message ID will be generated
	ID types.MessageID
	// Should the message be sent as a peer message (protocol messages to your own devices, e.g. app state key requests)
	Peer bool
}

SendRequestExtra contains the optional parameters for SendMessage.

By default, optional parameters don't have to be provided at all, e.g. 

cli.SendMessage(ctx, to, message)

When providing optional parameters, add a single instance of this struct as the last parameter: 

cli.SendMessage(ctx, to, message, whatsmeow.SendRequestExtra{...})

Trying to add multiple extra parameters will return an error.

type SendResponse 

type SendResponse struct {
	// The message timestamp returned by the server
	Timestamp time.Time

	// The ID of the sent message
	ID types.MessageID

	// Message handling duration, used for debugging
	DebugTimings MessageDebugTimings
}

type UploadResponse 

type UploadResponse struct {
	URL        string `json:"url"`
	DirectPath string `json:"direct_path"`

	MediaKey      []byte `json:"-"`
	FileEncSHA256 []byte `json:"-"`
	FileSHA256    []byte `json:"-"`
	FileLength    uint64 `json:"-"`
}

UploadResponse contains the data from the attachment upload, which can be put into a message to send the attachment.
