Libreoffice Calc_To_Whatsapp Utility #70

Closed pharmankur closed 6 months ago

pharmankur commented 6 months ago

Please find a spreadsheet file which can send customised whatsapp messages.

No programming knowledge is required to use it.

Understanding and ability to use spreadsheet functions / formula is sufficient to automate sending customised Whatsapp messages.

In "How_To_Use" sheet of the Libreoffice_Calc_To_Whatsapp.ods file, basics about architecture of the file is mentioned.

As of now, it supports Ubuntu 22.04 / Linux Mint. Download , Use and Enjoy !

Hi @pharmankur

This is an interesting usage of mudslide. I'm closing this PR since it does not belong in the core Mudslide repository, maybe you want to create a separate repository for it yourself?

Also, please keep in mind that the working of Mudslide depends on the Baileys library and since that is not an official supported library by WhatsApp it could stop working without notice. WhatsApp also monitors API usage and blocks accounts after abuse, there is a commercial API available for commercial use.

Yeah, I understand your concern about Whatsapp legality. Can mudslide support Telegram / Signal and access their API to send individual message ? (from shell as it does for Whatsapp)

robvanderleek commented 6 months ago

That is an interesting idea 🙂 I don't have the time now to look into the different APIs but I'll keep it in mind, thanks.
