Console Adapter

The console adapter lets you create a chatbot that works from the command line. This was built-in functionality in SDK v3, but was absent from the SDK v4 library. The console bot is limited in which functionality it can implement from the base adapter.

Installation

To install:

npm install @botbuildercommunity/adapter-console --save

Usage

Include it in your bot:

import { ConsoleAdapter } from "@botbuildercommunity/adapter-console";

Create the adapter:

const adapter: ConsoleAdapter = new ConsoleAdapter();

Listen for activities:

adapter.processActivity(async (context: TurnContext) => {
    ...
});

From there you can pass the context to your bot logic's onTurn() method.
