Example Code in README doesn't seem to work

[juni-vogt]

Hi, I adapted the code from the README slightly to get a working example but I get errors...

The first message being sent/received works. But for the second message, I get an error. The server also gets killed after like two seconds. Could you help me with this?

I get this output

error: [polling_error] {}
    1) should greet Masha and Sasha

       should greet Masha and Sasha:

for mocha test.js where test.js is:

const TelegramServer = require('telegram-test-api');
const TelegramBot = require('node-telegram-bot-api');

class TestBot {
  constructor(bot) {
    bot.onText(/\/start/, (msg, match) => {
      let chatId = msg.from.id;
      let opts = {
        reply_to_message_id: msg.message_id,
        reply_markup: JSON.stringify({
          keyboard: [[{text: 'ok 1'}]],
        }),
      };
      bot.sendMessage(chatId, 'pong', opts);
    });
    bot.onText(/ok 1/, (msg, match) => {
      let chatId = msg.from.id;
      bot.sendMessage(chatId, 'Hello, Masha!', opts);
    });
  }
}

  let serverConfig = {port: 9001};

    const updates = await client.getUpdates();
    console.log(`Client received messages: ${JSON.stringify(updates.result)}`);
    if (updates.result.length !== 1) {
      throw new Error('updates queue should contain one message!');
    }

    let keyboard = updates.result[0].message.reply_markup.keyboard;
    console.log("keyboard", keyboard)

    const message2 = client.makeMessage(keyboard[0][0].text);

    // Here, the error occurs:
    const updates2 = await client.getUpdates();
    console.log(`Client received messages: ${JSON.stringify(updates2.result)}`);


    if (updates2.result.length !== 1) {
      throw new Error('updates queue should contain one message!');
    }
    if (updates2.result[0].message.text !== 'Hello, Masha!') {
      throw new Error('Wrong greeting message!');
    }
    
    return true;
  });
});

Personally, I am fine now because I now found the telegraf example which works, but leaving this open because it still doesn't make sense to me.

@matthias-vogt, can you share the example?

Thanks for replying. It is the code above. I have since abandoned this project though.
