How to create a QuotedMessage using JSON ?

[frmdeveloper]

I tried this

type forMess struct {
    Jid types.JID `json:"jid"`
	Text string `json:"text"`
	Image []byte `json:"image"`
	QuotedID string `json:"quotedid"`
	Quoted struct {
        Conversation string `json:"conversation"`
    } `json:"quoted"`
}



err = sock.On("sendText", func(h *gosocketio.Channel, args forMess) {
    client.SendMessage(args.Jid, "", &waProto.Message{
	    ExtendedTextMessage: &waProto.ExtendedTextMessage{
		    Text: proto.String(args.Text),
			ContextInfo: &waProto.ContextInfo{
		      StanzaId:      &args.QuotedID,
		      Participant:   proto.String(args.Jid.String()),
		      QuotedMessage: args.Quoted,
			},
		},
	})
  })

And error

# command-line-arguments
./main.go:89:24: cannot use args.Quoted (variable of type struct{Conversation string "json:\"conversation\""}) as type *"go.mau.fi/whatsmeow/binary/proto".Message in struct literal

Your json path should be match with proto.Message structure (key).

In my code i have to Unmarshaling json to proto.Message and if no errors on the progress, the message could be used as a quotes message.

var msg_quote proto.Message
var json_quote = []byte("{...}")

if err := json.Unmarshal(json_quote, &msg_quote); err != nil {
    panic(err)
} else {
    // send msg_quote message
}

doesn't work for groups, and quoted wrong sender in private chat

err = sock.On("sendText", func(h *gosocketio.Channel, args forMess) {
    var msg_quote waProto.Message
    var json_quote = []byte(args.Quoted)
    if err := json.Unmarshal(json_quote, &msg_quote); err != nil {
      panic(err)
    } else {
      log.Printf(fmt.Sprintf("%v", &msg_quote))
      client.SendMessage(args.Jid, "", &waProto.Message{
	    ExtendedTextMessage: &waProto.ExtendedTextMessage{
		    Text: proto.String(args.Text),
			ContextInfo: &waProto.ContextInfo{
		      StanzaId:      &args.QuotedID,
		      Participant:   proto.String(args.Jid.String()),
		      QuotedMessage: &msg_quote,
			},
		},
	  })
	}
  })

Can't see the errors on go code.

[frmdeveloper]

no logs whatsoever

[mamur-rezeki]

Yes no error, whatsmeow didn't check if we write an "incorrect" message protocol, everything will be send.

Make sure your message structure is correct.
