Emoji prevents Viber messages #57

Closed infojunkie closed 7 years ago

infojunkie commented 7 years ago

I followed the tutorial https://claudiajs.com/tutorials/viber-chatbot.html and it's working well. However, when the bot receives a string containing an emoji, such as 😀 , the reply never reaches Viber. I have checked that request.text (in bot.js) does contain the correct string, so it seems the reply gets lost inside the bot builder code itself. Also, I did verify that sending 😀 directly to the Viber API does result in a message.

Fixed in version 2.7.2

Thanks!
