Using NapCat ​

TIP

  • Please control usage frequency appropriately. Sending messages too frequently may be identified as abnormal behavior, increasing the risk of triggering risk control mechanisms.
  • This project is strictly prohibited from being used for any purpose that violates laws and regulations. If you intend to use AstrBot for illegal industries or activities, we explicitly oppose and refuse your use of this project.
  • AstrBot connects to the OneBot v11 protocol through the aiocqhttp adapter. OneBot v11 protocol is an open communication protocol and does not represent any specific software or service.

NapCat's GitHub Repository: NapCat NapCat's Documentation: NapCat Documentation

NapCat provides multiple deployment methods, including Docker, Windows one-click installation packages, and more.

Deploy via One-Click Script ​

This deployment method is recommended.

Windows ​

Refer to this article: NapCat.Shell - Windows Manual Start Tutorial

Linux ​

Refer to this article: NapCat.Installer - Linux One-Click Script (Supports Ubuntu 20+/Debian 10+/Centos9)

TIP

Where to open Napcat WebUI: The WebUI link will be displayed in napcat's logs.

If napcat is deployed via Linux command line one-click deployment: docker log <account>.

For Docker-deployed NapCat: docker logs napcat.

Deploy via Docker Compose ​

TIP

If deploying with Docker Compose, no configuration is needed on the NapCat side. Just log in via NapCat WebUI (running on port 6099) or docker logs napcat, enable the aiocqhttp adapter on the AstrBot side to connect, and you can directly implement normal receiving and sending of voice data and file data.

  1. Download or copy the content of astrbot.yml
  2. Rename the downloaded file to astrbot.yml
  3. Modify astrbot.yml, change #- "6199:6199 to - "6199:6199", remove the flag of "#"
  4. Execute in the directory where the astrbot.yml file is located:
bash
NAPCAT_UID=$(id -u) NAPCAT_GID=$(id -g) docker compose -f ./astrbot.yml up -d

Deploy via Docker ​

TIP

If deploying with Docker, you will not be able to properly receive voice data and file data. This means voice-to-text and sandbox file input functions will not be available. You can receive text messages, image messages, and other types of messages.

This tutorial assumes you have Docker installed.

Execute the following command in the terminal for one-click deployment.

bash
docker run -d \
-e NAPCAT_GID=$(id -g) \
-e NAPCAT_UID=$(id -u) \
-p 3000:3000 \
-p 3001:3001 \
-p 6099:6099 \
--name napcat \
--restart=always \
mlikiowa/napcat-docker:latest

After successful execution, you need to check the logs to get the login QR code and the management panel URL.

bash
docker logs napcat

Please copy the management panel URL and open it in your browser.

Then use the account you want to log in with to scan the QR code that appears.

If there are no issues during the login stage, deployment is successful.

Connect to AstrBot ​

Configure aiocqhttp in AstrBot ​

  1. Enter AstrBot's management panel
  2. Click Bots in the left sidebar
  3. Then in the interface on the right, click + Create Bot
  4. Select OneBot v11

Fill in the configuration items that appear:

  • ID(id): Fill in arbitrarily, only used to distinguish different messaging platform instances.
  • Enable: Check this.
  • Reverse WebSocket Host Address: Please fill in your machine's IP address, generally fill in 0.0.0.0 directly
  • Reverse WebSocket Port: Fill in a port, default is 6199.
  • Reverse Websocket Token: Only needs to be filled when a token is configured in NapCat's network settings.

Example image: (At the fastest, just check Enable, then save)

Click Save.

Configure Administrator ​

After filling in, go to the Configuration File page, click the Platform Configuration tab, find Administrator ID, and fill in your account number (not the bot's account number).

Remember to click Save in the lower right corner, AstrBot will restart and apply the configuration.

Add WebSocket Client in NapCat ​

Switch back to NapCat's management panel, click Network Configuration->New->WebSockets Client.

jiaochenXJY

In the newly opened window:

  • Check Enable.
  • Fill in URL with ws://HostIP:Port/ws. For example, ws://localhost:6199/ws or ws://127.0.0.1:6199/ws.

IMPORTANT

  1. If deploying with Docker and both AstrBot and NapCat containers are connected to the same network, use ws://astrbot:6199/ws (refer to the Docker script in this documentation).
  2. Due to Docker network isolation, when not on the same network, please use the internal network IP address or public network IP address (unsafe) to connect, i.e., ws://(internal/public IP):6199/ws.
  • Message Format: Array
  • Heartbeat Interval: 5000
  • Reconnection Interval: 5000

WARNING

  1. Remember to add /ws at the end!
  2. The IP here cannot be 0.0.0.0

Click Save.

Go to AstrBot WebUI Console, if you see the blue log aiocqhttp(OneBot v11) adapter connected., it means the connection is successful. If not, and after several seconds aiocqhttp adapter has been closed appears, it indicates connection timeout (failed), please check if the configuration is correct.

🎉 All Done ​

At this point, your AstrBot and NapCat should be successfully connected! Use private message to send /help to the bot to check if the connection is successful.
