As I've mentioned in this comment it's time to deprecated this package then.

Now people can use https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/whatsapp-nativefier and just change the settings to use the dark theme.

What makes this outdated?

Grx for all your work Franciso

As of yesterday WhatsApp web has added a Theme setting in settings. Kinda makes this redundant now. I am now running as a Web App in chromium and Firefox.

Does someone else having problems with it not detecting microphone?

Just got a message from the Nativefier developer: Hi. I just released Nativefier v9.0.0, which includes the above-mentioned commit. Closing, feel free to re-open if the issue persists.

I just built it against nodejs-nativefier 9.0 and it broke the tray icon on KDE once again. Left click acts as right click again. This could be because it is now using Electron 9.0.4

Edit: It is definitely caused by moving to Electron 9.0.4
https://github.com/electron/electron/pull/23926 added to the 9.0.3 release

So building with buildflag --electron-version 9.0.2 fixes up the tray icon click behavior.

This is the PKGBUILD I used https://pastebin.com/G79CXhJk

@franciscocpg, thanks for this package, I really like this dark, :)

BTW, perhaps you can consider changing the tray setting on "/opt/whatsapp-nativefier-dark/resources/app/nativefier.json" from true to "start-in-tray", that'd be great. Right now I'm editing it on every update.

Nice guys.

I'll wait for a new nativefier release with this fix (done in https://github.com/jiahaog/nativefier/pull/955) and integrated it in this package.

Confirming no popup notifications using nativefier 8.0.7. Changelog says this was fixed. Last working version 7.7.1 according to some. The fix that "sispus" outlines below is the cure for the notifications.

sudo sed -i "s/const newNotify =.*/const newNotify = function (title, opt) {/" /opt/whatsapp-nativefier-dark/resources/app/lib/preload.js

Works flawlessly now. Thank you very much. I'll keep an eye in case that you want to eventually deprecate this package and have a switch in the currently light-themed one. It would make sense to do so.
