yoctol / bottender Goto Github PK

Just like this one: https://github.com/facebookincubator/create-react-app/blob/master/packages/react-scripts/template/gitignore

And how about README.md?

in a room/group context, calling context.leaveRoom(); context.leaveGroup(); to leave
or context.leave() to automatically decide which API to call.

i can't catch the Postback ref param in customer chat plugin

<div class="fb-customerchat"
 page_id="<PAGE_ID>"
 ref="<OPTIONAL_WEBHOOK_PARAM>">
</div>

this is my code:

bot.onEvent(async context => {
  await console.log(context.event.postback);
  //await context.sendText('je suis un robot boucle infinie :p');
});

it give me always null.
any suggestion please.

first layer: 3 items
2nd and 3rd layer: 5 items

Can someone give me an example on how to build a multi-step conversation flow?

when the event is from a message in a thread, sendText should send to the thread, not to the channel

For example, there are three properties in my profile config:

persistent_menu
get_started
whitelisted_domains

After successfully set profile, I made some change and there are only two properties in my config.

persistent_menu
get_started

When I set profile again, the whitelisted_domains is still existing. But it should be deleted as expected.

The usage should overwrite the whole profile config, delete and set again.

My node.js is v 8.0.0

how come data is showing up as object Promise.

console log is working fine

Since i want to make the slack bot installable with oauth2, is there a method that i can use to add the access token after the bot instance is created?

Currently the token is added at SlackBot is run, which means i need to provide it at the constructor. However with oauth the token is given after the constructor is run. So now i just enter an empty string first and then manually change the _token property in SlackOAuthClient.

inspired by Add multi-page example #60

Is it possible to support multi-Line bot too?

I'm new to github and dont know how to fork and npm install my forked repo

Hi,

I have an application that users create their ChatBot. So i want that when they click "Install ChatBot on your Page" the mapPageToAccessToken should be updated for live working. Is there a way to do this, without rebooting the server?

Thanks,

Heyo!

I was wondering how I'd send custom attachments to Slack through the context. I would love some API that allows me to reach postMessage directly.

Also, do you guys have any idea on how to integrate with Slack callbacks? Let's say that I want to send a message with a button that does something.

There are so many with-xxx examples, hard to determine what type is it. Maybe we could rearrange them with type. For example,
with-koa => server-koa
with-express => server-express
with memory-session => session-memory
with-now-deployment => deployment-now.
There could still be some can't be renamed well but it'll be much less with-xxx.

When I run the examples for messenger, once I send something to the bot, it starts spamming the same thing until I stop the server, how do I send a message only once and wait for the user to respond?
Here is an example of what I'm talking:

Maybe --skip-prompt or --no-prompt ?

Hi,

I want to track events using bottender. But i did't find "conversation id". I know that i can concat: "context.event.rawEvent.sender.id + context.event.rawEvent.recipient.id, but i would like to know if is there a conversation id?

Thanks,

from bottenderjs/messaging-apis#154

Heyo! Very very nice work! Thanks for open-sourcing it! ❤️

I wanted to ask to know whether it's a bug or maybe not a not-implemented-yet feature. Currently, when I talk to my bot (sounds crazy huh?) privately I get:

Unhandled promise rejection (rejection id: 21): Error: Slack API - channel_not_found

I think I've granted everything I should on Slack. Any guidance?

I connected my nodejs chatbot to messenger using ngrok and it works fine except for the postback_messages. Nothing happens when I press the 'start' button or the return to beginning button. What I have to do is click on the button and then send a text message. Everything works just fine after that.
I believe that the postback message is not triggening the "onEvent" function, that's why I need the text message.
Yes, I have the messaging_postbacks event selected on my facebook app.
Does anyone have any ideas? Is there something I have to do with ngrok to make the postback reach the bot?

It's cool to support multiple Facebook page access tokens in messenger client, and it is also a frequently asked features:
microsoft/botframework-sdk#1495

We can pass function or async function as AccessToken:

type AccessToken = string | (pageId: string) => string | (pageId: string) => Promise<string>;

If set whitelisted_domains and home_url at the same time using one CLI command, Facebook will throw error. Must set whitelisted_domains first and then with home_url the 2nd CLI call.

> bottender messenger profile set

  }
}

the push function looks like this
await context.client.pushText(userId, 'Goodbye LINE');

but in most usecase, I would like to push message at a specific time, or triggered events other than LINE webhook events.
How should I push messages whenever I like to?
ps: Im currently saved a context object to global scope. so that whenever I need to call .pushText. I can use the global context object.

using the restify server, slack url_verification fails for event subscription. restify body parser doesn't parse the body into req.params which is used here

While we run multiple ngrok, the port of local server will increase 1 everytime we run new ngrok service

Cheers!

Hey guys

I have a suggestion , what about a State that will be destroyed after a fixed given number (not in secondes) , like contexts in DialogFlow(api.ai) , maybe smthng like this

context.setState(Object,lifeTime);

//Will be used like this

// 'nickname' and 'asking' will be destroyed at the end of the next event triggering
context.setState({ nickname: context.event.text, asking: false },1);

// 'nickname' and 'asking' will be destroyed at the end of the third event triggering
context.setState({ nickname: context.event.text, asking: false },3);

keep the good work

Hi,

I saw the exemples with (botanalytics, dashbot etc..) but they only track what User Send. I want to track what bot send to user. How can i do this?

Thanks

Should we name it to isFromCustomerChatPlugin?

https://developers.facebook.com/docs/messenger-platform/discovery/customer-chat-plugin#detect

Hey guys,

setState and resetState do not work in Handler when using ContextSimulator to simulate the Bot.

In my case to solve this problem , we have added an Overlay Module that override those functions, but I hope you can find a solution better than that 😄

It's a common practice to keep environment variables in a .env file and use it with https://www.npmjs.com/package/dotenv for example.
It would be great to have the same option to choose in bot installation process.

  bottender/bot/Bot   "entry": [
  bottender/bot/Bot     {
  bottender/bot/Bot       "changes": [
  bottender/bot/Bot         {
  bottender/bot/Bot           "field": "messages",
  bottender/bot/Bot           "value": {
  bottender/bot/Bot             "page_id": "1067280970047460"
  bottender/bot/Bot           }
  bottender/bot/Bot         }
  bottender/bot/Bot       ],
  bottender/bot/Bot       "id": "0",
  bottender/bot/Bot       "time": 1514862760
  bottender/bot/Bot     }
  bottender/bot/Bot   ],
  bottender/bot/Bot   "object": "page"
  bottender/bot/Bot } +5s

This button will send a request which bottender can't parse.

Hi!,

I'm developing a robot that works in multiple pages. But with this #161 i got that the KEY of SessionStore is the userID. I think it should concat with pageId. The code that reproduces the error.

Case:

1 - Send message in Page 1
2 - Send message in Page 2

bot.onEvent(async context => {

    if (!context.state.fbPageId) {
        context.state.fbPageId = context.event.rawEvent.recipient.id
    }
    console.log("F ID:", context.event.rawEvent.recipient.id);
    console.log("S ID:", context.state.fbPageId);

});

Console Log:

F ID: 476947852676691
S ID: 476947852676691
F ID: 131348777471663
S ID: 476947852676691

When will you add Viber to Bottender , it's currently not available .

Version of Bottender: "bottender": "^0.14.3",
Steps to reproduce:

1. start the server with any endpoint eg:
   const server = createServer(bot, { path: '/webhook' });
2. press the Verify on https://developers.line.me/console after changed a new webhook URL
3. a mock message will be sent from LINE to our server, and it will be something like this eg:

    "events": [
        {
            "replyToken": "00000000000000000000000000000000",
            "type": "message",
            "timestamp": 1512777897980,
            "source": {
                "type": "user",
                "userId": "Udeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeef"
            },
            "message": {
                "id": "100001",
                "type": "text",
                "text": "Hello, world"
            }
        },
        {
            "replyToken": "ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff",
            "type": "message",
            "timestamp": 1512777897980,
            "source": {
                "type": "user",
                "userId": "Udeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeefdeadbeef"
            },
            "message": {
                "id": "100002",
                "type": "sticker",
                "packageId": "1",
                "stickerId": "1"
            }
        }
    ]
}

4. internal/process/warning.js:18 (node:16291) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection (rejection id: 2): Error: LINE API - Not found
   this error will be logged, and it is due to the unhandled promise rejection in lib/express/createMiddleware.js:12

Is this a bug or a behavior? If it is a behavior, how can I handle the promise rejection?

$ bottender messenger attachment upload --force

Should delete bottender-lock.json and re-upload the assets.

I am using bottender to build a facebook messenger bot.
However, every time I send review request for pages_messages permission in facebook developer console, my server will get some error, so that I cannot pass the review. The full error messages are as following:

How to repeat the bug

1. Write a messenger bot without try catch statement and onError handler

2. In facebook developer console, ask for messages permission in Messenger tab
   

3. Goto Webhook tab in facebook, press test for messages
   

then server will get same error message

If I need to provide more information, please kindly tell me.

When only using CLI to set webhook, the users don't need to provide accessToken.
They just need to set appId and appSecret in config.

So maybe we should tell the users to provide an empty string as accessToken?

It may take over 3 seconds so Slack will retry and bot will receive 2 repeat events.

Not sure if we should try speeding up SlackConnector.updateSession() or change Bot.handleRequest() behavior to respond earlier.

so we can have something like
bottender messenger do something --token=<TOKEN>
and will not throw when there is no bottender.config.js

Provide a getter to determine whether the underlying session is newly created

any one has a idea how i can get a sender id (admin or editor) of a page instead of page id with bottender.

Good job guys for this library 👍

IMO you should drop the server dependencies (express, koa, restify ,micro, ngrok...) and only expose functions to initialize a new or existing apps. so instead of

const { MessengerBot } = require('bottender');
const { createServer } = require('bottender/express');

const bot = new MessengerBot({
  accessToken: '__FILL_YOUR_TOKEN_HERE__',
  appSecret: '__FILL_YOUR_SECRET_HERE__',
});

bot.onEvent(async context => {
  await context.sendText('Hello World');
});

const server = createServer(bot);

server.listen(5000, () => {
  console.log('server is running on 5000 port...');
});

we can use this library within an existing express app

let bottender = require('bottender')
let express = require('express')
let app = express()

let bot = new MessengerBot({
  accessToken: '__FILL_YOUR_TOKEN_HERE__',
  appSecret: '__FILL_YOUR_SECRET_HERE__'
})

bot.onEvent(async (context) => {
  await context.sendText('Hello World')
})

bot.initExpress(app)

// configure the app

app.listen(5000, () => {
  console.log('server is running on 5000 port...')
})

Hi,

I want to get the User Email. Looking the facebook docs, i can get it, but on "context.session" it dont get.
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/permissions#reference-email

Is there a way to do this?

can we aggregate the devs into a chat. Seems ideal for a chatbot framework.

Should deeply clone the initialState and assign it to context.state.

• Slack
• Telegram
• Viber

Slack:
validation tokens (same for interactive messages and events API)
https://api.slack.com/interactive-messages
https://api.slack.com/events-api

https://github.com/npm/registry/issues/255

All the time I restart the server new verify token for fb messenger is generated. There is no option to set it static.

Adding verifyToken property to to bottender.config.json does not help.
