Wa-automate-nodejs: Feature request: get QR using Easy API

[silvaartur]

It's very helpful if we can get QR code using "easy api".

[smashah]

How do you mean? It already asks you to scan the QR code

[silvaartur]

Sorry, I explain. At moment QR can be scanned only from the terminal. The request is for a API method to get base64 of the QR, so I can scan anywhere.

@silvaartur Try with --pop-up

[nrs1022]

Hi @smashah is it possible to run @open-wa with npx so Chrome is run on non-headless mode and so scan QR from Chrome itself? I've tried with --pop-up but seems to not to cause any effect... I'm new on @open-wa, maybe headless mode is hardcoded on?

P.S. Very good work with Easy-API and @open-wa of course!!!

Changelog

🚀 Release 2.0.8 (2020-08-28)

• Release 2.0.8 3a3504c
• Feature: Get QR Code as png file via popup api on launch #747 4ceec04
• Patched: Fixed waitForId delay, now able to send files to broadcasts #718 and #752 8924c08

@silvaartur @nrs1022

In the upcoming update, you'll be able to GET the QR Code PNG file when using --popup.

If you want to set it on a specific port, use --popup-port.

By default, the popup is on port 3000. So you can get the QR code using:

http://localhost:3000/qr

It won't automatically update like the base popup path but you can keep refreshing it to get the latest QR code.

[smashah]

@silvaartur @nrs1022 in 2.0.17 both popup and API are now on the same port. --popup-port is now deprecated. As soon as the initialization process is complete, the popup endpoints will stop working entirely
