-====== Send Whatsapps from linux (just another recipe) ======
-I've found two libraries to sends whatsapps from Linux (and Windows, too):
-  * [[https://github.com/tgalal/yowsup|The first one is yowsup, in python]]
-  * [[https://github.com/venomous0x/WhatsAPI|The second one is WhatsAPI]]
-I've found that the yowsup library works very well in the process of registering a telephone number and getting the necessary password. The problem of this library now is that it's too complicated to send a single message (I've tried it hard, I promise).
-On the other hand WhatsAPI is simple to use, but --as far as I know--, the registration does not work.
-So, I decided to mix the best of two worlds and get a process more or less simple to send a simple message.
-===== Register your phone number with yowsup =====
-Download the code:
-<code>
-git clone https://github.com/tgalal/yowsup.git
-</code>
-Start the registration by invoking:
-<code>
-yowsup-cli registration --requestcode sms --phone 49XXXXXXXX
-</code>
-Then, an sms will be sent to the phone in question. After this, confirm the registration by invoking:
-<code>
-yowsup-cli registration --register 123456 --phone 49XXXXXXXX
-</code>
-After this, you will get a phone number and a password. With this, you can use WhatsAPI to send your messages.
-==== Send a message with WhatsAPI ====
-Download the source code of WhatsAPI:
-<code>
-git clone https://github.com/venomous0x/WhatsAPI.git
-</code>
-I've created a simple php program that just sends a message and exits:
-<code php>
-<?php
-set_time_limit(10);
-require_once '../src/whatsprot.class.php';
-//Change to your time zone
-date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Madrid');
-///////////////////////CONFIGURATION///////////////////////
-//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
-$username = "49XXXXXXXXX"; // Telephone number including the country code
-$password = "PUT THE PASSWORD HERE"; // A server generated Password
-$identity = ""; // Obtained during registration with this API or using MissVeno
-$nickname = ""; // This is the username (or nickname) d
-$target = $argv[1]; // Destination telephone number including the country code
-$debug = false; // Set this to true, to see debug mode.
-///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
-$w = new WhatsProt($username, $identity, $nickname, $debug);
-$w->connect();
-// Now loginWithPassword function sends Nickname and (Available) Presence
-$w->loginWithPassword($password);
-$w->sendMessage($target, argv[2]);
-?>
-</code>
-And you can call by the command line:
-<code>
-$ php5 49DESTINATIONPHONE "this is a test message"
-</code>
-and that's it: sending whatsapp from a computer, direct and simple.
