Feature Request: Botan.io Easy Integration

[kamikazechaser]

If possible integrate botan analytics with 2-3 lines.

@kamikazechaser I think you can use middleware for that:

tg.before((update, callback) => {
    //This code will be executed for all updates
    //here you can call Botan.io API
    callback(true) //if you pass false - update will not be handled 
})

The problem is that it still crashes. Here is the code. Have you tried it any bot. if so tell me how you did it. This is how I tried

var botan = require('botanio')(000000-Kl89000) //Token Looks Something Like That

tg.before((update, callback) => {
    //This code will be executed for all updates
    //here you can call Botan.io API
    botan.track(message, 'start');
    callback(true) //if you pass false - update will not be handled 
}) 

Do you have a sample code?

@kamikazechaser How it crashes? Show me logs.

[kamikazechaser]

var botan = require('botanio')(6xL22Qf6W7-1JZNIvFTKHe3So8imD9Gh)

tg.before((update, callback) => {
    //This code will be executed for all updates
    //here you can call Botan.io API
    botan.track(message, 'start')  
    callback(true) //if you pass false - update will not be handled 
})

With the Above i get this

/root/bot/bot.js:7
var botan = require('botanio')(6xL22Qf6W7-1JZNIvFTKHe3So8imD9Gh)
                               ^
SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list
    at Object.exports.runInThisContext (vm.js:53:16)
    at Module._compile (module.js:513:28)
    at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:550:10)

    at run (node.js:348:7)
    at startup (node.js:140:9)
    at node.js:463:

However If I add quotes to the token like this var botan = require('botanio')('6xL22Qf6W7-1JZNIvFTKHe3So8imD9Gh') , the bot starts and immediately stops with NO error message or stack trace

@kamikazechaser Thats because you dont have such variable message

You can do it like this:

const botan = require('botanio')('BOTAN_IO_TOKEN')

tg.before((update, callback) => {
    if (update.message && update.message.text) {
        botan.track(update.message, 'Start', (error, response, body) => {
            if (body && body.status === 'accepted') {
                console.log(`logged message - ${update.message.text}`)
            }
        })
    }

    callback(true)
})

[kamikazechaser]

Hmm no errors but botan doesnt seem to be tracking. I think event listener is not set well. What do you think. have you tried it before

[Naltox]

@kamikazechaser If there is log - "logged message" then the request to Botan was sent.
