Add support for Linux #279

Closed iMonZ closed 3 years ago

iMonZ commented 3 years ago

Is it possible to add Linux cli support? It would be a nice feature to put this application on my RaspberryPi.

It won't be possible, because Watomatic uses the notification-api from android. You could set up an android-vm on your raspberry pi and install it there.

Here is a tutorial how to set up an android-vm with WhatsApp: https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/go/whatsapp/android-vm-setup.html

Maybe there is a possible way with xamarin?

It won't be possible, because Watomatic looks for notifications on your device. Theny if a notification comes from WhatsApp, it taps the reply button and pasts the text you set up in Watomatic. (Not really like this but you can imagine like this). So Watomatic doesn't communicate with WhatsApp directly, it communicates with the WhatsApp notifications over an Android-notification-api.
