sam-bot's Issues

'message' is not defined, Switch case

Sam-Bot/index.js

Lines 185 to 195 in 027c93d

	default:
	await api.sendMessage({
	chat_id: message.chat.id,
	text: customStrings.understandFailure,
	reply_markup: JSON.stringify({
	keyboard: customStrings.commandList,
	one_time_keyboard: true,
	resize_keyboard: true
	})
	});
	break;

The default in switch case throws an error:

ReferenceError: message is not defined

Push fix on branch dev.

Make bot conversational

Sam-Bot/index.js

Lines 65 to 88 in 423a5b3

	} else if (message.reply_to_message.text === customStrings.askNameTransaction) {
	// input
	api.sendMessage({
	chat_id: message.chat.id,
	text: customStrings.askDescription,
	reply_markup: JSON.stringify({
	force_reply: true
	})
	});
	} else if (message.reply_to_message.text === customStrings.askDescription) {
	// input
	api.sendMessage({
	chat_id: message.chat.id,
	text: customStrings.transactionAdded,
	});
	}
	} else {

The Transaction model needs the name of the person, amount transacted and description of the transaction. The bot thus needs to remember the answers of the questions answered and then finally pass them all to the addTransaction() function.

E.G

Add Transaction
- Who did you make the transaction with?
David
- What was the transaction for?
Doritos
- What was the amount spent?
20
- Your transaction has been added

The result of this conversation should be that David, Doritos and 20 are added to the transactions database.

Make the PR on branch dev

Finish add-transaction function

Sam-Bot/commands.js

Lines 69 to 82 in 5cec92f

	addTransactions = async (user, message) => {
	try {
	var doc = await User.find({
	username: user.username
	});
	}
	catch (e) {
	console.log(`Error: ${e}`)
	}
	}

Follow coding style established in other functions

• Proper spacing (tabs not spacing)
• Comment lines if necessary
• Description in PR

The PR must be made on the dev branch

Add function to calculate amount owed from transactions

• The amount should add all transaction for a user and display/store the net amount in the proper database model.
• A message should be sent regarding that amount in index.js. Store any strings in strings.js

Convert to switch case

Convert the code written in index.js to switch case.
