## Objectives
### Main Goal & User Story
Simon can detect new message(s), read them, analyse it and reply if needed.

#### A) detecting new messages
 1. get simon_opened_chats
 2. inspect available user from top-bottom for notifications (only on available browser screen view)
 3. click on the opened chat found with a new message notification icon

#### B) reading new message(s)
 1. get contact_chat
 2. find "n unread messages" section
 3. get first unread msg
 4. read and analyse msg

#### C) replying a message
 1. get(hover) the reply icon (on the right-side of the message)
 2. click on the reply icon
 3. get the reply link("Reply")
 4. click the reply link (on browser: it puts cursor on the contact_send_message[message_field])

#### D) send a message
 1. get contact_send_message
 2. write message
 3. press enter to send msg.


## Code Examples
For the library we are using the Page Pattern recommended by the selenium
python library.

### Login into whatsapp web, check you are logged in & logout
```python
import time

from selenium import webdriver

from simon.accounts.pages import LoginPage
from simon.header.pages import HeaderPage
from simon.pages import BasePage

# Creating the driver (browser)
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.maximize_window()

# 1. Login
#       and uncheck the remember check box
#       (Get your phone ready to read the QR code)
login_page = LoginPage(driver)
login_page.load()
login_page.remember_me = False
time.sleep(7)


# 2. The base page is inherited by all pages
#       and here you can check whether any
#       page is available on the screen of
#       the browser.

# we don't need to load the pages as whatsapp
# web works as one-page web app
base_page = BasePage(driver)
base_page.is_title_matches()
base_page.is_welcome_page_available()
base_page.is_nav_bar_page_available()
base_page.is_search_page_available()
base_page.is_pane_page_available()
# chat is only available after you open one
base_page.is_chat_page_available()


# 3. Logout
header_page = HeaderPage(driver)
header_page.logout()

# Close the browser
driver.quit()
```

### Get all opened chats, go into the chat, read the last 10 messages from your friend and reply to the most recent message
```python
import time

from selenium import webdriver

from simon.accounts.pages import LoginPage
from simon.chat.pages import ChatPage
from simon.chats.pages import PanePage
from simon.header.pages import HeaderPage


# Creating the driver (browser)
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.maximize_window()

# Login
#       and uncheck the remember check box
#       (Get your phone ready to read the QR code)
login_page = LoginPage(driver)
login_page.load()
time.sleep(7)


# 1. Get all opened chats
#       opened chats are the one chats or conversations
#       you already have in your whatsapp.
#       IT WONT work if you are looking for a contact
#       you have never started a conversation.
pane_page = PanePage(driver)

# get all chats
opened_chats = pane_page.opened_chats

# iterating over them
for oc in opened_chats:
    print(oc.name)  # contact name (as appears on your whatsapp)
    print(oc.icon)  # the url of the image
    print(oc.last_message)
    print(oc.last_message_time)  # datetime object
    print(oc.has_notifications())  # are there unread messages?
    print(oc.notifications)  # returns a integer with the qty of new messages, if there are.


# 2. Go into the chat
#       just click on one to open the chat page
#       (where the conversation is happening)
first_chat = opened_chats[0]
first_chat.click()

# 3. Read the last 10 messages from your contact
chat_page = ChatPage(driver)
msgs = chat_page.messages.newest(10, filterby='contact')

for msg in msgs:
    print(msg.contact) # name (all should be the same)
    print(msg.date)
    print(msg.text)
    print(msg.status)


# 4. Reply to the most recent message
msg = msgs[0]  # get the first of the messages query done in previous step
msg = chat_page.messages.newest(filterby='contact')
# Be careful as library can only now reply to text message
# Replying to a msg type (video, image, giff, etc) is not implemented yet. 
msg.reply("This a reply to a specific text msg.")


# Logout
header_page = HeaderPage(driver)
header_page.logout()

# Close the browser
driver.quit()
```
