Introduction

In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of creating your own WhatsApp bot using Baileys and Node.js. This bot will establish a connection via either a pairing code or a QR code. By the end of this tutorial, you will have a working bot that can interact with WhatsApp on your device.

Step 1: Set Up Your Development Environment

To start building your WhatsApp bot, you need to prepare your development environment.

1. Install Node.js

   • Download and install Node.js from the official website.
   • Verify the installation by running node -v in your terminal.

2. Install Termux

   • Download Termux from the Google Play Store.
   • Launch Termux and update the package list:

     pkg update && pkg upgrade
     

3. Install Acode

   • Download Acode from the Google Play Store.
   • This will be your code editor for writing Node.js scripts.

Step 2: Clone the Baileys Repository

Next, you need to clone the Baileys repository, which provides the necessary tools for building the bot.

1. Open Termux and Install Git

   • If Git is not installed, run:

     pkg install git
     

2. Clone the Repository

   • Use the following command to clone the Baileys repository:

     git clone https://github.com/WhiskeySockets/Baileys.git
     

3. Navigate to the Baileys Directory

   • Change to the newly created directory:

     cd Baileys
     

Step 3: Install Dependencies

Now that you have the repository, you need to install the required dependencies.

1. Install Dependencies
   • Run the following command to install all necessary packages:

     npm install
     

Step 4: Create a Bot Script

You will now create a script that will serve as the foundation for your WhatsApp bot.

1. Create a New File

   • Use Acode to create a new JavaScript file, for example, bot.js.

2. Write Basic Bot Code

   • Copy and paste the following code into bot.js:

     const { WAConnection } = require('@whiskeysockets/baileys');
     
     const conn = new WAConnection();
     
     conn.on('qr', () => {
         console.log('Scan the QR code above to connect.');
     });
     
     conn.on('open', () => {
         console.log('Successfully connected!');
     });
     
     (async () => {
         await conn.connect();
     })();
     

Step 5: Run Your Bot

With your script ready, it's time to run your bot and connect it to WhatsApp.

1. Run the Bot

   • In Termux, execute the following command:

     node bot.js
     

2. Scan the QR Code

   • A QR code will appear in the terminal. Scan it with your WhatsApp app to establish the connection.

Conclusion

You have successfully created a simple WhatsApp bot using Baileys and Node.js. This bot connects through a QR code, allowing you to interact with WhatsApp programmatically.

Next Steps

• Experiment with adding more functionalities to your bot, such as responding to messages or sending automated replies.
• Explore the Baileys documentation for advanced features and capabilities to enhance your bot's performance.

By following this guide, you’re now equipped to develop your own WhatsApp bot and expand your coding skills further!
