Check user online state. [feature request]

[iamrenaud]

Hi everyone.

Is it possible to get user online state? (like : online, seen today at X, etc)

Thank you!

+1, this would be a good feature/function. Last Seen/is Online should, perhaps as a subset of Contact? Some new events would also be nice as well to be able to 'listen' for changes.

client.on('contact_state'...

When will this implement? Any idea

[creative-ae]

any news on this ?

[egeres]

Has this been implemented yet ?

A PR has been instantiated. #722 will throw an event when the state changes. You can store the presences in an object and fetch them any time later.

As an example:

const presences = {};

client.on("contact_change_state", (state, id) => {
  presences[id._serialized] = state;
})

presences["[email protected]"] // returns the state

Best regards,

@pedroslopez we need more thought about this, how about a "requestPresenceUpdate" to sub then a 'presence-update' event?

Are there any news for the problem that whatsapp web dose not subscribe to all user state events. Or what is the limit there?

[PurpShell]

no updates so far, could be implemented, but all the previous implementations failed.. will try later in the summer but can't guarantee anything for sure.
