09.message-routing

README.md

This sample shows how to route messages to dialogs.

Concepts introduced in this sample

In this sample, we create a bot that collects user information after the user greets the bot. The bot can also provide help.

To try this sample

  • Clone the samples repository
git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/botbuilder-samples.git

Running Locally

Visual Studio

  • Navigate to the samples folder (botbuilder-samples/samples/csharp_dotnetcore/09.message-routing) and open MessageRoutingBot.csproj in Visual Studio
  • Run the project (press F5 key)

.NET Core CLI

  • Install the .NET Core CLI tools.
  • Using the command line, navigate to botbuilder-samples/samples/csharp_dotnetcore/09.message-routing folder
  • type dotnet run

Testing the bot using Bot Framework Emulator

Microsoft Bot Framework Emulator is a desktop application that allows bot developers to test and debug their bots on localhost or running remotely through a tunnel.

  • Install the Bot Framework Emulator from here.

Connect to bot using Bot Framework Emulator V4

  • File -> Open bot and navigate to botbuilder-samples/samples/csharp_dotnetcore/09.message-routing folder
