Working with Raspberry and Whatsapp

Former Member
Former Member over 11 years ago

So far I could try sending messages from Whatsapp to raspberry, raspberry sending messages from a cell phone and I need to do two tasks at once.

 

Someone has information, as well to keep the conversation closes after 3 min

    Not sure what you're looking for but I think the connection loss (after 3 minutes) might be related to your cell phone carrier rather than WhatsApp.  That or (since WhatsApp appears to be customized XMPP service), there could be an automatic activity timeout.  I'm just guessing though.

    every 2 minutes  connect to the whatsapp port, send foo and close. That should keep it alive indefinitely.
