@jandrito80 See "contact_getProfilePicture" in Contacts' methods, and "contact_gotProfilePicture" in Contacts' signals: https://github.com/tgalal/yowsup/wiki/Yowsup-Library-Documentation#wiki-methods

Sorry, it is imposible for me.
I can't understand python, but i know php code.
I'm implementing these functions in php, so far all work well.
When I send this extructure (sendGetPictureIds):






I received this:






The "id" received is unix time (when picture was updated).

When i send this extructure (sendGetPicture):




I received nothin. I'm lost. Please help me. Do I must to use the picture id somehow?

I do not understand why you close this thread
Is the forum to help people?

[tgalal]

I see you are a bit confused/ lost. This is an issue tracker and not a forum. And then it's an issue tracker for Yowsup, and not for anyone's personal projects. To achieve what you want using Yowsup, you need to call the method" contact_getProfilePicture" and listen to the signal called "contact_gotProfilePicture" as per this page https://github.com/tgalal/yowsup/wiki/Yowsup-Library-Documentation

[jandrito80]

sorry.
I know nothing of python.
Can you help me? How I call the method "contact_getProfilePicture"? By command line?

you cant dude. you lack the basis that allows you to use this source code.
this is just a programmer interface that allows python programmers to develop software capable of interacting with whatsapp.
the example command line interface that comes with yowsup (yowsup-cli) is only an example program that has not implemented all the methods yowsup can actually manage.
some weeks ago I didn't knew anything about python, and now I start making small programs, a small plugin for yowsup and even a web application that internally uses yowsup to retrieve all kind of whatsapp users data, including the profile image.
I think that you should focus into learning python basics as I did, before trying to use that code.
tarek has stated clearly, you will not get help for your personal project because this is a bug tracker.
just try to learn instead of asking others to do your work.

good luck
