Python library for integrating Whatools into your app easily.
Notice This library works only with v3 API. Please make sure your whatools line is configured to use such API version. Create an account on https://wha.tools and add a number, you will be assigned an API access key.
API reference
Setting up
The only thing you need is including this library and then create an API object by passing your whatools API key as a parameter to the class constructor.
| from whatools import Whatools
| wa = Whatools("Replace with API access key")
Remember that you can get the API key for your whatools line by logging into Whatools and then going to Advanced settings > REST API
Logging in and out
Logging in and out is the analog process in v3 API to subscribing and unsubscribing in older API versions. Nevertheless, in v3, when you log out you are effectively closing the connection between WhatsApp servers and your account, so you can be sure you never miss a single message.
| wa.login()
| wa.logout()
Setting your nickname
| wa.setNickname("Your nickname")
Getting your nickname

Setting your status message
