High Available Mode for Wechaty: Ding/Dong with OA Account: chatieio

[huan]

The Problem

When a Wechaty bot is started and logged in, it is mostly liked to be work as expected for sending/receiving messages.

However, sometimes it might run into trouble for some unknown reason, which caused it can not work anymore, but we have nothing to know about that.

In order to check whether a Wechaty bot is available, we need to take a test on it to see if it can send & receive the message successfully.

How can archive that? It is not a good idea if we send a message to another Wechaty bot because it is not stable enough for this kind of online service.

The Solution

We can set up an Official Account for WeChat, with an auto-responding strategy that will reply a dong when it receives a ding.

So we let our Chatie Official Account takes the responsibility to provide this service.

HAProxy Requirement

If you want to use HAProxy, please make sure every bot account has followed the ChatieIO WeChat Official Account by scanning the above QR Code.
