Not your average whatsapp bot.

PS: THIS USED TO BE MY LOCKDOWN PROJECT AND YE... THE PROJECT IS FAR FROM DEAD.

Wabot-3.7.0

All images are fetched from reddit and cached in-memory every 5 minutes.

(above gifs may take a bit to load.)

AND MUCH MORE !!!

MISC

• Uses mongodb as primary db and redis(even for images) to cache, so the bot is pretty fast.
• NSFW commands can be enabled/disabled by admins.
• You won't be banned from WhatsApp unless you make the bot public, Just add the bot to your friends/family groups but nothing else.
• You can host the bot for free on Railway, 500 hours per month free.

SETUP

• Edit the .env file.
• Watch a video on youtube to setup mongodb and change the db url.
• There are tons of guides on google to setup Snoowrap for reddit.
