I'm using Dialogflow as the handler for my botbuilder endpoint, which is a Azure Bot Service bot, and the handler is deployed on a Firebase Cloud Function, but for every botframework request I make, the function returns a 202 (that's the default behaviour of botbuilder I believe), and the function stops working in the middle of the code.
I saw in this response from Frank van Puffelen that the functions may halt if there's a response from the function.
Cloud Functions for Firebase: serializing Promises
Is this enough to stop my function from executing? If so, is there a way to stop this from happening?
Edit: I'm using the Universal Bot to setup the callback for the messages.
const bot = new builder.UniversalBot(this.connector, botFrameworkCallback)
.set('storage', new builder.MemoryBotStorage());
And here's the botFrameworkCallback:
const botFrameworkCallback = (session) => {
const message = session.message.text;
const userRef = new UserRef('user');
let userInfo;
userRef
.get()
.then((userInformation) => {
console.log('user information', userInformation);
userInfo = userInformation;
const userData: IUser = {
...userInfo,
ref: userRef
};
return makeDialogflowRequest(userData, message);
})
.then((intentResult: any) => {
console.log('intent result', intentResult);
const response = intentResult.answer;
session.send(response);
})
.catch((err) => {
console.log('Error on BotFramework', err);
const response = 'Sorry. An error happened while getting your response.';
session.send(response);
});
}
The whole integration part is there to give user specific responses, so this code does a lot of API requests, like Firestore ones, the Dialogflow one, and because of that we've set it up this way.
