Problem getting bot to join room properly about plugapi HOT 15 CLOSED

Make sure the auth token is correct and that you are connecting via the way the readme shows.

from plugapi.

I've already verified the auth code (as I'm using it with another API just fine) and it is correct. I'll admit that I must have missed something, but your "connecting via the way the readme shows" is just frustrating. I'll post the relative snippets from my code and maybe that will make it easier to see what's wrong:

var PlugAPI = require('plugapi');
var AUTH = 'xxx';  // intentionally blanked
var ROOM = 'yyy';  // intentionally blanked

var bot = new PlugAPI(AUTH);
bot.connect(ROOM);

bot.on('roomJoin', function(data) {
    console.log(data);  // this never happens
});

bot.on('userJoin', function(data) {
    console.log(data);  // this does happen
});

If this is still a problem, please tell me what version you are using.

Bare with guys, been since before TAT took over. is there still an update code? i have my auth code taken care of and using my same code, looks like it should fit and i'm connecting just not able to get into a room. UpdateCode the deal?

from plugapi.

updateCode still exists, but the API has decoupled it from the code base by grabbing it from a cloud-hosted location now. Make sure you remove any references from your bot's code.

btw i've caught up on these issue logs so i'm not just playing dumb. lol

Looks like you're probably missing some dependencies ... have you run npm or a similar client to grab all the packages?

from plugapi.

i would agree. i'm not sure if i might have some residue lefotver form the lst but i did my npm install plugapi --production, i have a npm install receipts that i've always had to do. i simply did a copy as a zip file from the git and just unpacked it after. maybe an order of operations thing??? could you help me with those initial steps to get those dependencies?
gawd my typos are rampant today. i guess thats the excitement of not having to work and in between jobs. lets say i have some spare time on my hands. lol

sshit. might not have mySql installed on this home pc. have to work from my bot server as i've cleaned up my home pc a bit. that error doesnt appear to be the mysql issue though. i know that one when i see it.

Okay, the way you're calling npm there is installing a specific package (in this case, plugapi which should fail since you have it already). The simplest way to do this is to go into your node_modules/plugapi/ directory and run npm install there, which should pull down all the prereqs for you. The --production flag shouldn't make a difference in this case, to my knowledge, since there are no dev requirements in package.json.

oh shiznit! well that gets my loving AuntJackie into the room. i think the remaining would be in my code somewhere. lol now the hard part to find out the gaps in between. TY TY TY very much!

from plugapi.

well i'm dumb enough to be confused. using my old code i used to get my bot to speak with this below. i dont know how to find out the current functions i guess in this api and error out with this. any ideas or able to point my dumb ass in the right direction? lol

    speak: function (arg) {
        bot.speak(arg);
        console.log(arg)
    },

It's sendChat() now. A lot of functions were also renamed to be consistent throughout the code.

Check the wiki here - it documents pretty well: https://github.com/TATDK/plugapi/wiki

oh nice! i managed to figure that out by lookin in the client.js file. YAAAY! i'm a happy SOB right now. dumb enough to be able to figure out where to hunt. lol
