ciscodevnet / node-sparkbot Goto Github PK

Announced at CLUS 2019, Webex API will support Cards

from Jan Neuzil

"I am currently developping a bot and I have encountered a problem, when you mention the bot from the mobile devices like iPhone, iPad. When you post the message to bot from PC, in the html you have e.g.- html:

'<p><spark-mention data-object-type="person" data-object-id="Y2lzY29xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx">SampleBotName</spark-mention> /help</p>'

but when mentioning from mobile device in the html is:

'<spark-mention data-object-id="349xxxxx-xxxx-xxxxx-xxxxxxx" data-object-type="person">SampleBotName</spark-mention> /help'

so there is missing base64 coding. So when using node-sparkbot node.js module, it doesn't fulfill one condition which would remove HTML tag in html parser function resulting in misinterpretation of bot commands. Is this an intended behaviour or it should be the same? Thank you very much.

I am implementing a cisco spark bot , which is now known as Webex teams. I am able to send receive simple text message from user. Is there a way to send rich card to user from Bot? I could not find any helpful documentation.

Here is my code I use to interact with bot

     var SparkBot = require("node-sparkbot");

     var SparkAPIWrapper = require("node-sparkclient");
    // Starts your Webhook with default configuration where the SPARK API access 
    token is read from the SPARK_TOKEN env variable 
    var bot = new SparkBot();

    var spark = new SparkAPIWrapper(process.env.SPARK_TOKEN);

   bot.onMessage(function (trigger, message) {
   if (message.personEmail != "[email protected]")

   spark.createMessage(message.roomId, "You said " + message.text, { 
   "markdown": 
    true }, function (err, message) {
    if (err) {
    console.log("WARNING: could not post message to room: " + 
    message.roomId);
    return;
    }
    });
 });

I need to put an extra check to the bot's email with the trigger email to filter out messages from itself.
else it goes in the loop and floods the room with circular messages as -
