Baileys — Typescript/Javascript WhatsApp Web API

Baileys is a Typescript/Javascript library that implements the WhatsApp Web protocol. This fork/package re-exports the library under the package name veron-baileys so you can install it either using the stable unscoped name or via the original scoped names that point to this package.

Package on npm: https://www.npmjs.com/package/veron-baileys
Homepage / source: https://github.com/VeronDev/Baileys

Badges
- npm: veron-baileys (latest)
- Compatible aliases:
- @whiskeysockets/baileys => npm:veron-baileys@latest
- @adiwajshing/baileys => npm:veron-baileys@latest

Quick install

Using Yarn (recommended)
``bash
yarn add veron-baileys


or pin a specific version:


yarn add veron-baileys@1.0.2
`

Using npm
`bash
npm install veron-baileys


or pin a specific version:


npm install veron-baileys@1.0.2
`

If you want to use the original package names as aliases in package.json, add these entries:
`json
{
"dependencies": {
"@whiskeysockets/baileys": "npm:veron-baileys@latest",
"@adiwajshing/baileys": "npm:veron-baileys@latest",
"veron-baileys": "1.0.2"
}
}
`

Importing

If you installed the unscoped package:
`ts
import makeWASocket from 'veron-baileys'
`

If you used one of the aliased scoped package names, import exactly as you would normally:
`ts
import makeWASocket from '@whiskeysockets/baileys'
// or
import makeWASocket from '@adiwajshing/baileys'
`

Minimal example

This is a compact example showing how to create a socket and listen for connection updates. For a fuller example that covers authentication, message handling, media, and reconnection, see the included example.ts file in the repository.

`ts
import makeWASocket from 'veron-baileys'

async function start() {
const sock = makeWASocket({
// pass options here (logger, printQRInTerminal, auth, etc.)
})

sock.ev.on('connection.update', (update) => {
console.log('connection update:', update)
})

sock.ev.on('messages.upsert', (m) => {
console.log('messages upsert:', m)
})
}

start().catch(console.error)
`

Running the example

1. Clone or download the repository:
`bash
git clone https://github.com/VeronDev/Baileys.git
cd Baileys
`
2. Install dependencies:
`bash
yarn
`
3. Run the example script:

`

Notes and compatibility
- This package re-exports the Baileys API under the veron-baileys package name. If you depend on code that imports @whiskeysockets/baileys or @adiwajshing/baileys`, you can use the alias entries above in package.json so existing imports continue to work.
- Check example.ts in the Example/ folder for a full demonstration of usage patterns, session persistence, message handling, and media upload/download.
- Keep your environment up-to-date with Node.js LTS releases for best compatibility.
