In actions-on-google , both the request and response object need to provide as input to this library. but in lambda function, only the request object exists.
So how can i override it ?
in aws lambda the format is
exports.handler = function (event, context, callback) { // event is the request object , the response is provided using the callback() functon
}
the actions-on-google object is created as :
const DialogflowApp = require('actions-on-google').DialogflowApp;
const app = new DialogflowApp({ request: request, response: response });
To get a Google Action to work on AWS Lambda, you need to do 2 things:
I believe the first setp can't be done off-the-shelf with the Actions SDK. If you're using a framework like Jovo, you can create code that works for both Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, and host it on AWS Lambda.
You can find a step by step tutorial about setting up a "Hello World" Google Action, host it on Lambda, and create an API Gateway here: https://www.jovo.tech/blog/google-action-tutorial-nodejs/
