Method Details

getConverter(Object)

function getConverter(property: Object): Converter | ConverterFactory

Parameters

property

The converter for the selector configuration.

Inherited Method Details

beginDialog(DialogContext, any)

Called when the Dialog is started and pushed onto the dialog stack.

function beginDialog(dc: DialogContext, options?: any): Promise<DialogTurnResult>

Parameters

dc

DialogContext

The DialogContext for the current turn of conversation.

options

any

Optional. Initial information to pass to the Dialog.

Returns

Promise<DialogTurnResult>

A DialogTurnResult Promise representing the asynchronous operation.

Inherited From InputDialog.beginDialog

configure(Record<string, unknown>)

Fluent method for configuring the object.

function configure(config: Record<string, unknown>): this

Parameters

config

Record<string, unknown>

Configuration settings to apply.

Returns

this

The Configurable after the operation is complete.

Inherited From Configurable.configure

continueDialog(DialogContext)

Called when the Dialog is continued, where it is the active dialog and the user replies with a new activity.

function continueDialog(dc: DialogContext): Promise<DialogTurnResult>

Parameters

dc

DialogContext

The DialogContext for the current turn of conversation.

Returns

Promise<DialogTurnResult>

A DialogTurnResult Promise representing the asynchronous operation.

Inherited From InputDialog.continueDialog

endDialog(TurnContext, DialogInstance, DialogReason)

When overridden in a derived class, performs clean up for the dialog before it ends.

function endDialog(_context: TurnContext, _instance: DialogInstance, _reason: DialogReason): Promise<void>

Parameters

_context

TurnContext

The context object for the turn.

_instance

DialogInstance

Current state information for this dialog.

_reason

DialogReason

The reason the dialog is ending.

Returns

Promise<void>

Remarks

Derived dialogs that need to perform logging or cleanup before ending should override this method. By default, this method has no effect.

The DialogContext calls this method when the current dialog is ending.

Inherited From Dialog.endDialog

getVersion()

An encoded string used to aid in the detection of bot changes on re-deployment.

function getVersion(): string

Returns

string

Unique string which should only change when dialog has changed in a way that should restart the dialog.

Remarks

This defaults to returning the dialogs id but can be overridden to provide more precise change detection logic. Any dialog on the stack that has its version change will result in a versionChanged event will be raised. If this event is not handled by the bot, an error will be thrown resulting in the bots error handler logic being run.

Returning an empty string will disable version tracking for the component all together.

Inherited From Dialog.getVersion

onDialogEvent(DialogContext, DialogEvent)

Called when an event has been raised, using DialogContext.emitEvent(), by either the current dialog or a dialog that the current dialog started.

function onDialogEvent(dc: DialogContext, e: DialogEvent): Promise<boolean>

Parameters

dc

DialogContext

The dialog context for the current turn of conversation.

e

DialogEvent

The event being raised.

Returns

Promise<boolean>

True if the event is handled by the current dialog and bubbling should stop.

Inherited From Dialog.onDialogEvent

repromptDialog(TurnContext, DialogInstance)

When overridden in a derived class, reprompts the user for input.

function repromptDialog(_context: TurnContext, _instance: DialogInstance): Promise<void>

Parameters

_context

TurnContext

The context object for the turn.

_instance

DialogInstance

Current state information for this dialog.

Returns

Promise<void>

Remarks

Derived dialogs that support validation and re-prompt logic should override this method. By default, this method has no effect.

The DialogContext calls this method when the current dialog should re-request input from the user. This method is implemented for prompt dialogs.

resumeDialog(DialogContext, DialogReason, any)

Called when a child Dialog completes its turn, returning control to this dialog.
