wechaty python

Wechaty is a chatbot SDK for WeChat written in multiple programming languages, including Python. With Wechaty, developers can create chatbots that can send and receive messages, manage contacts and groups, and perform other actions on the WeChat platform.

To use Wechaty in Python, you can install the Wechaty-Python package using pip:

pip install wechaty

Once installed, you can create a Wechaty bot by importing the Wechaty class and implementing the necessary event handlers:

import asyncio
from wechaty import Wechaty, Message

class MyBot(Wechaty):

    async def on_message(self, message: Message):
        if message.text() == 'ping':
            await message.say('pong')

async def main():
    bot = MyBot()
    await bot.start()

asyncio.run(main())

In this example, we define a `MyBot` class that extends the `Wechaty` class and overrides the `on_message` event handler. When the bot receives a message with the text "ping", it responds with "pong".

We then create an instance of the `MyBot` class and start it by calling the `start` method. The `asyncio.run` function is used to run the `main` coroutine, which starts the bot and keeps it running until it is stopped.

There are many other event handlers and functions available in the Wechaty SDK, which you can use to create more complex chatbots. Check out the Wechaty-Python documentation for more information.
