I've deployed a webhook to make Messenger bot run when a player exits my game. I'm trying to implement this: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/games/instant-games/getting-started/bot-setup/#step-3--respond-to-messaging-game-plays-webhooks
Everything else is working but I am getting an error when the script deploys to sendMessage. It fails saying:
2019-03-11T15:11:16.289939+00:00 app[web.1]: ReferenceError: sendMessage is not defined
Although I do know that this error is because sendMessage is not defined anywhere in the script but after going through all the documentation I am not sure what exactly to write in sendMessage for the script to work.
Here's my end point for webhook:
// Creates the endpoint for our webhook
app.post('/webhook', (req, res) => {
let body = req.body;
console.log("body post : "+JSON.stringify(body));
// Checks this is an event from a page subscription
if (body.object === 'page') {
// Iterates over each entry - there may be multiple if batched
body.entry.forEach(function(entry) {
console.log(JSON.stringify(entry));
// Gets the message. entry.messaging is an array, but
// will only ever contain one message, so we get index 0
let event = entry.messaging[0];
// Get the sender PSID
let sender_psid = event.sender.id;
console.log('Sender PSID: ' + sender_psid);
if(event.game_play){
var senderId = event.sender.id; // Messenger sender id
var playerId = event.game_play.player_id; // Instant Games player id
var contextId = event.game_play.context_id;
var payload = event.game_play.payload;
sendMessage(
senderId,
contextId,
'Congratulations on your victory!',
'Play Again'
);
} else if (event.postback) {
handlePostback(sender_psid, event.postback);
}
});
// Returns a '200 OK' response to all requests
res.status(200).send('EVENT_RECEIVED');
}
});
Please help
You call a method sendMessage
that has no implementation:
sendMessage(
senderId,
contextId,
'Congratulations on your victory!',
'Play Again'
);
You should ensure that you have an implementation for this method that uses the Messenger Send API.
