Send Image
Send image to a chat.
Usage
The Message facade's sendImage method may be used to send an image to a chat. You must provide a MessageImageData DTO.
php
use NjoguAmos\Waha\Facades\Message;
use NjoguAmos\Waha\Dto\MessageImageData;
$data = new MessageImageData(
chatId: '[email protected]',
file: ['url' => 'https://example.com/image.jpg'],
caption: 'Check this out!',
);
/** @var \Saloon\Http\Response $response */
$response = Message::sendImage(data: $data);php
use NjoguAmos\Waha\Facades\Message;
use NjoguAmos\Waha\Dto\MessageImageData;
$data = new MessageImageData(
chatId: '[email protected]',
file: [
'mimetype' => 'image/jpeg',
'filename' => 'image.jpg',
'data' => 'base64-encoded-data...',
],
caption: 'Check this out!',
);
/** @var \Saloon\Http\Response $response */
$response = Message::sendImage(data: $data);php
use NjoguAmos\Waha\Facades\Message;
use NjoguAmos\Waha\Dto\MessageImageData;
$data = new MessageImageData(
chatId: '[email protected]',
file: ['url' => 'https://example.com/image.jpg'],
reply_to: '[email protected]_AAA',
);
/** @var \Saloon\Http\Response $response */
$response = Message::sendImage(data: $data);Response
The response returned by the sendImage method is an instance of Saloon\Http\Response. You may use the json method to retrieve the response as an array:
php
/** @var \Saloon\Http\Response $response */
$response->status(); // 201
$response->json(); // ["id" => "[email protected]_BAE6A33293978B16", "timestamp" => 1629200000, ...]php
use NjoguAmos\Waha\Facades\Message;
use NjoguAmos\Waha\Dto\MessageImageData;
$data = new MessageImageData(
chatId: '[email protected]',
file: ['url' => 'https://example.com/image.jpg'],
);
/** @var \Saloon\Http\Response $response */
$response = Message::sendImage(data: $data);
$json = $response->json();Image File Format
WhatsApp works best when images are sent in JPEG format. You must convert to JPEG image/jpeg before sending. In your request, set file.mimetype to image/jpeg and use a .jpg/.jpeg filename.
