Add some message features to fisherman. Copyrights (c), Simon Sassi 2017
The message suite is a fisherman middleware that is using the prototype editing available by fisherman It edits the FisherResponse prototype to provide some cool features like:
- Bot Typing: send a message with a delay to simulate real user typing, with
response.send() - Embed compatibility: it checks if the bot can send embed, if it can't, it convert the embed to a formatted text
npm install --save command-loader-fishermanInclude the middleware to the bot:
[...]
const MessageSuite = require("message-suite-fisherman")
var messageSuitePlugin = new MessageSuite({enableTyping: true, enableEmbedCompatibilityMode: true})
bot.use(messageSuitePlugin)
[...]Creates an instance of MessageSuite.
| Parameter name | Description | Type | Default value |
|---|---|---|---|
| enableTyping | Enable typing when it's a command and response.send() is used | Boolean | false |
| defaultTypingCount | Default typing count when no typing count is specified in the command's locales | Integer | 1 |
| defaultTimeout | Default timeout in MS to send the message after starting typing when no timeout is specified in the command's locales | Integer | 1000 |
| enableEmbedCompatibilityMode | If it should enable the Compatibilty mode, it will send formatted text instead of an embed if the bot hasn't the perm EMBED_LINKS | Boolean | true |
| embedCompatibilityModeFormat | The function used to convert the embed to formatted text | Function | defaultFormat |
This parameter is an option used to parse the embed.
The default value is a simple function who looks like this:
defaultFormat (embed) {
var formatted = ''
if (embed.title) formatted = formatted + '__' + embed.title + '__\n'
if (embed.description) formatted = formatted + '\n' + embed.description + '\n'
if (embed.fields) for (var i in embed.fields)formatted = formatted + '=> **' + embed.fields[i].name + '**\n ' + embed.fields[i].value + '\n'
return formatted
}The embed parameter is an Object. This function has to return a string value
You can set as well the timeout and the typing count in the command's locales property:
Example with a timeout of 5s and a typing count of 1
register.textCommand('test', {locales: {typingCount:1, typingTimeout:5000}}, function (req, res) {
console.log("Command trigerred")
var embed = {
title: "a test",
description: "Just a simple test",
fields: [{name: "Cat title", value: "Guoi daziou duoaoauj dqiupou"},{name: "Cat title", value: "Guoi daziou duoaoauj dqiupou"}]
}
res.send("ok", {embed: embed})
})
