I am trying to write my first bot using Node.js and MS Bot Framework. From the examples provided by Microsoft, I can't figure out how to achieve this scenario:
- Bot sends a message to the user.
- Bot waits for the user's answer.
- Bot runs another function to process this answer.
The examples have this code:
if (!item.size) {
// Prompt for size
builder.Prompts.choice(session, "What size would you like?", "Small|Medium|Large|Extra Large");
} else {
//Skip to next waterfall step
next();
}
The first method (builder.Prompts.choice()
) achieves what I want, but I don't want to use the ugly built-in prompts. I'd rather just do it manually (send message to user, offer options, wait for response).
The second method (next()
) just skips to the next step without waiting for the user's input.
I have a dialog created like this:
bot.dialog('name', [function 1() {}, function 2() {}]);
So I just want to find a way so that function 1
outputs a message and waits for the user input, then moves on to function 2
.
