Dialogflow Session Entities for Actions on Google plugin

This plugin makes it easier to use Dialogflow Session Entities in the Actions on Google library.

This plugin supports only Actions built with Dialogflow.

Setup Instructions

Install the plugin with npm install actions-on-google-dialogflow-session-entities-plugin.

Usage

This plugin adds a new method to the conv object to let you provide a single or set of entities along with their synonyms.

You can use CRUD operations add, get, set, and clear to modify the array of session entities you will be using. Call the send method to add these session entities to the conversation response.

Typescript developers can import the SessionEntity interface for type-safety.

const { dialogflow } = require('actions-on-google')
const { sessionEntitiesHelper } = require('actions-on-google-dialogflow-session-entities-plugin')

const app = dialogflow()
    .use(sessionEntitiesHelper())

app.intent('Default Welcome Intent', async (conv) => {
    // Get session entities through some method
    conv.ask('How can I help?')
    const entities = await asyncDatabaseCall()
    conv.sessionEntities.add(...entities)
    conv.sessionEntities.send()
})
