Hello command

[ghost]

My bot is not saying Hey, How are you when you do the hello command.

[alaingilbert]

ok... what is your code... ? Do you get any error ?

[ghost]

no, he just won't respond.

var Bot    = require('ttapi');
var AUTH   = 'xxx';
var USERID = 'xxx';
var ROOMID = 'xxx';

var bot = new Bot(AUTH, USERID, ROOMID);

bot.on('speak', function (data) {
  // Get the data
  var name = data.name;
  var text = data.text;

  // Respond to "/hello" command
  if (text.match(/^\/hello$/)) {
    bot.speak('Hey! How are you @'+name+'?');
  }
});

You can see him in the room ? Have you installed "ttapi" with npm ?

[ghost]

i can see him in the room and i installed ttapi with npm.

If you do :

bot.on('speak', function (data) {
  console.log("--- TEST ---");
  console.log(data, data.text == '/hello');
});

Can you see the --- TEST --- in the terminal ? If yes, what's the complete output ?

[ghost]

no

[alaingilbert]

I mean, you have to write something in the chat... then it should appear in the terminal.

[ghost]

ok

it started working again after I refreshed the bot
