Google号码精灵操作-未定义助手

Question

I'm attempting the number genie example from https://developers.google.com/actions/apiai/tutorials/number-genie and I'm getting the following error when I run the code. It's the section upto Test Your Action. If I comment it out then it starts fine.

/home/pi/numbergenie/app.js:54
assistant.handleRequest(actionMap);

ReferenceError: assistant is not defined
at Object.<anonymous> (/home/pi/numbergenie/app.js:54:1)

Any help appreciated.

Answer 1

Are you sure you're running the whole code?

From the tutorial I can see that assistant is defined in this section:

    app.post('/', function (request, response) {
  console.log('headers: ' + JSON.stringify(request.headers));
  console.log('body: ' + JSON.stringify(request.body));

  const assistant = new Assistant({request: request, response: response});
  response.sendStatus(200); // OK
});

So the code that uses this variable should be in this block too. Hope it helps.
