Reply with device messages

Specific responses will be made as the message type is device_text or device_event.

var wechat = require('wechat');
var config = {
  token: 'token',
  appid: 'appid',
  encodingAESKey: 'encodinAESKey',
  checkSignature: true // optional, default value is true. Because WeChat open platform debug tool does not send signature in plaintext mode, if you want to use this debug tool, please set to false
};

app.use(express.query());
app.use('/wechat', wechat(config, function (req, res, next) {
  // message is located in req.weixin
  var message = req.weixin;
  if (message.MsgType === 'device_text') {
    // device text
    res.reply('This message will be pushed onto the device.');
  } else if (message.MsgType === 'device_event') {
    if (message.Event === 'subscribe_status' ||
      message.Event === 'unsubscribe_status') {
    //subscribe or unsubscribe the WIFI device status,the reply should be 1 or 0
      res.reply(1);
    } else {
      res.reply('This message will be pushed onto the device.')
    }
  }
}));

WXSession

Wechat messages are not communicate like traditional C/S model, therefore nothing Cookies will be store in Wechat client. this WXSession is designed to support access user's infomation via req.wxsession, with connect.session backed.

It's a simple demo:

app.use(connect.cookieParser());
app.use(connect.session({secret: 'keyboard cat', cookie: {maxAge: 60000}}));
app.use('/wechat', wechat('some token', wechat.text(function (info, req, res, next) {
  if (info.Content === '=') {
    var exp = req.wxsession.text.join('');
    req.wxsession.text = '';
    res.reply(exp);
  } else {
    req.wxsession.text = req.wxsession.text || [];
    req.wxsession.text.push(info.Content);
    res.reply('Message got ' + info.Content);
  }
})));

req.wxsession and req.session shares same store. width redis as persistence database, across processes sharing are supportd.

Reply Waiter

a reply waiter is seems like a telephone menu system. it must be setup before activation. this function is supported upon WXSession.

var List = require('wechat').List;
List.add('view', [
  ['reply {a}', function (info, req, res) {
    res.reply('Im Answer A');
  }],
  ['reply {b}', function (info, req, res) {
    res.reply('Im Answer B');
  }],
  ['reply {c}', 'Im Answer C (the shorthand method)']
]);

active the reply waiter we setuped before:

var app = connect();
app.use(connect.query());
app.use(connect.cookieParser());
app.use(connect.session({secret: 'keyboard cat', cookie: {maxAge: 60000}}));
app.use('/wechat', wechat('some token', wechat.text(function (info, req, res, next) {
  if (info.Content === 'list') {
    res.wait('view'); // view is the very waiter we setuped before.
  } else {
    res.reply('hehe');
    // or stop the waiter and quit.
    // res.nowait('hehe');
  }
})));

if waiter view actived, user will receive messages below:

reply a
reply b
reply c

reply waiter acquires both function and text as a callback action

List.add('view', [
  ['reply {a}', function (info, req, res, next) {
    // we callback as a function
    res.reply('Answer A');
  }],
  // or text as shorthand
  ['reply {c}', 'Answer C']
]);

if user's message is not in waiter's trigger texts. this message will be processd in the else way and can be stoped by res.nowait(), res.nowait method actions like reply method.
