[Archived] Please use upstream https://github.com/tgalal/yowsup instead, which is now maintained. In case it doesn't work, please open a bug report. I personally no longer use Yowsup, but you can provide me a test number and I may try to assist you.

Yowsup v2.5.7 is out, See release notes
==========================================================
Yowsup opened WhatsApp service under platforms!
Yowsup is a Python library that enables you to build applications which use the WhatsApp service. Yowsup has been used to create two clients: 1) An unofficial WhatsApp client Nokia N9 through the Wazapp project which was in use by more than 200K users; 2) Another fully featured unofficial client for Blackberry 10.
Quickstart
- yowsup's architecture
- Create a sample app
- yowsup-cli
- Yowsup development, debugging, maintainance and sanity
Installation
- Requires python2.6+, or python3.0 +
- Required python packages: python-dateutil,
- Required python packages for end-to-end encryption: protobuf, pycrypto, python-axolotl-curve25519
- Required python packages for yowsup-cli: argparse, readline (or pyreadline for windows), pillow (for sending images)
Install using setup.py to pull all Python dependencies, or pip:
pip install yowsup2
Linux
You need to have installed Python headers (probably from python-dev package) and ncurses-dev, then run
python setup.py install
Because of a bug with python-dateutil package you might get permission error for some dateutil file called requires.txt when you use yowsup (see this bug report) to fix you'll need to chmod 644 that file.

You need to have installed: py27-pip-7.1.2(+), py27-sqlite3-2.7.11_7(+), then run
pip install yowsup2
Mac
python setup.py install

Windows
- Install mingw compiler
- Add mingw to your PATH
- In PYTHONPATH\Lib\distutils create a file called distutils.cfg and add these lines:
[build]
compiler=mingw32
- Install gcc:
mingw-get.exe install gcc - Install zlib
python setup.py install
If pycrypto fails to install with some "chmod error". You can install it separately using something like
easy_install http://www.voidspace.org.uk/downloads/pycrypto26/pycrypto-2.6.win32-py2.7.exe
or for python3 from:
and then rerun the install command again
