Package Exports

dashbot

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (dashbot) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

dashbot is available via NPM.

Then log whenver your webhook is called

Finally, whenever you send a message log the request and response.

    const requestData = {
      url: 'https://graph.facebook.com/v2.6/me/messages',
      qs: {access_token: process.env.FACEBOOK_PAGE_TOKEN},
      method: 'POST',
      json: {
        recipient: {id: sender},
        message: {
          text: 'You are right when you say: ' + text
        }
      }
    };
    const requestId = dashbot.logOutgoing(requestData);
    request(requestData, function(error, response, body) {
