InputBarTrigger does not accept placeholder

[eric-gardyn]

doc refers to InputBarTrigger accepting a placeholder prop. https://mongodb.github.io/chatbot/ui But the latest version of the code does not.

Hi Eric!

What version of the UI are you using? The documentation site currently reflects only the latest published version.

We added support for the placeholder prop in the 0.2.0+ releases so you should upgrade to the latest version.

npm install mongodb-chatbot-ui@^0.2.1

I just tested on v0.2.1 and was able to get this minimal example working without a problem:

import Chatbot, { InputBarTrigger } from "mongodb-chatbot-ui";
import './App.css'

function App() {
  return (
    <Chatbot serverBaseUrl="http://localhost:3000">
      <InputBarTrigger placeholder="Custom placeholder message!" />
    </Chatbot>
  );
}

export default App

Please let us know if this works for you or if you're still having issues.

thank you. I think my issue came from using the 'examples/quick-start' folder. somehow it didn't install the latest mongodb-chatbot-ui.
