skyped

Notice

skyped uses Skype4Py, which is no longer being updated and outdated. Skype4Py does not support cloud-based groupchats, so you wont receive any messages from those kind of chats. To make a P2P chat, use /createmoderatedchat in skype.

Example

var Skype = require('./index');
var skype = new Skype({start: true});

skype.on('received message', function(msg) {
  console.log('%s: %s', msg.from, msg.body);
});
skype.on('online status change', function(user) {
  console.log('%s changed his status to %s', user.username, user.onlineStatus);
});
skype.on('ready', function() {
  skype.chatMessage('', 'Hello!');
});

start — Starts the bot after created.

Functions
