[Bug] - Fix the Alan AI listener

[gurpreet-legend]

Bug:

• In Alan scripts, I have used the News API and the requests are being called by request.js, update all the instances of get requests from the News API using axios. Follow this link to change all the request methods

Example: In alan-scripts.example.txt, Instead of :

    api.request(``, (error, response, body) => {
        const { articles } = JSON.parse(body);
        if(!articles) {
            p.play('Sorry, please try searching for a different category');
            return;
        }

        savedArticles = articles;

        p.play({ command : 'newHeadlines', articles});
        if(p.C.value) {
            p.play(`Here are the (latest|recent) articles on ${p.C.value}`);
        }
        else if(p.C.value == ''){
            p.play(`Here are the (latest|recent) news`);
        }

        p.play('Would you like me to read the headlines ?');
        p.then(confirmation);
    });

Use this:

    api.axios.get(NEWS_API_URL)
        .then((response) => {
            savedArticles = response.articles;
            p.play({ command : 'newHeadlines', savedArticles});
            if(p.C.value) {
                p.play(`Here are the (latest|recent) articles on ${p.C.value}`);
            }
            else if(p.C.value == ''){
                p.play(`Here are the (latest|recent) news`);
            }

            p.play('Would you like me to read the headlines ?');
            p.then(confirmation);
         })
         .catch((error) => {
                p.play('Sorry, please try searching for a different category');
         });

Hi @gurpreet-legend I would like to work on this bug. Please assign it to me. Think I can work on this. Just to confirm, you want me edit the alan-script.example file and that should have axios calls. Is that correct? Because I cannot see anywhere else where you are making calls in the code.

Awesome, @gurpreet-legend check out my pull request #21

Actually, I ran your script, there were some errors I resolved them and already made a push, so I think this issue had already been resolved, just make a pull request to verify.

If you fixed the bug then that's fine. I'll just close the pull request.
