Unable to send text

[svenyonson]

using the example from the readme in file:

const imessage = require('osa-imessage');
imessage.send('+<mycellnumber>', 'Hello World!')

fails with this error:

svens-mbp:osa-test svenyonson$ node test.js

(node:21987) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection (rejection id: 
1): Error: Command failed: /usr/bin/osascript -l JavaScript

Hi @svenyonson ! I tried to send a message without success too, but I think that my problem is that I am executing it at anywhere.
Could you please tell me where are you running the command imessage.send('+<mycellnumber>', 'Hello World!')?

Thanks in advance!

Have you send an iMessage to that phone number using your Mac before?

[svenyonson]

I'm sending it from my Mac, to my phone, in a simple Node.js script. Tryed the code interactively and from a .js file.

Try sending a message to your phone via your Mac with the built in Messages app before trying osa-imessage

[svenyonson]

Yes. Works fine.

Okay, now try osa-imessage

[svenyonson]

Same error. I literally copied the osa-imessage project folder (repo), ran npm install, then added a script called test.js. then I execute: node test.js $ cat test.js const imessage = require('osa-imessage'); imessage.send('+3035206372', 'Hello World!') $ node test.js (node:23350) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection (rejection id: 1): Error: Command failed: /usr/bin/osascript -l JavaScript 445:509: execution error: Error on line 19: Error: no thread with handle '+3035206372' (-2700) (node:23350) [DEP0018] DeprecationWarning: Unhandled promise rejections are deprecated.

Try including the country code on the phone number. (+1303520****)

[svenyonson]

That worked! Thanks a bunch for your time and effort.

Happy to help. Cheers

I can only send a message when I interacted with the phone number before by Imessage mac/iphone. It doesn't send if there is no chat active with that person. Any ideas on that?
