Final code

Fetching our data from the database we've just created in the previous step.

Explanation

Dummy responses are great but we want to fetch our data from a database since we can't add everyone at the entity values.

For each of the 'get_location', 'get_name' and 'get_skill' intents enable the fulfilment.

Then we need to add the intent names at the intent map in our inline editor:

  1. Click Fulfilment

  2. In your Inline Editor(Powered by Cloud Functions for Firebase) make sure you have the code below:

...
intentMap.set("Default Welcome Intent - search - get_name", searchName);
intentMap.set("Default Welcome Intent - search - get_location",searchLocation);
intentMap.set("Default Welcome Intent - search - get_skill", searchSkill);

then we need to initialize our database:

var admin = require("firebase-admin");
admin.initializeApp({
  databaseURL: "<<<COPY_THIS_FROM_FIREBASE_DATABASE>>>"
});

var db = admin.database();

Finally, we need to create our 3 methods:

function searchName(agent) {
      var results = db.ref("myDatabase");
      results
        .orderByChild("Name")
        .startAt(agent.parameters.person_name)
        .endAt(`${agent.parameters.person_name}~`)
        .on("value", function(snapshot) {
          snapshot.forEach(function(data) {
            agent.add("The WTM lead is " + data.val().Email);
          });
        });
    }
function searchLocation(agent) {
      var ref = db.ref("myDatabase");
      ref
        .orderByChild("Location")
        .equalTo(agent.parameters.person_location)
        .on("value", function(snapshot) {
          snapshot.forEach(function(data) {
            console.log(
              "The WTM lead" + data.val().Name + " - " + data.val().Location
            );
            agent.add(
              "The WTM lead" +
                data.val().Name +
                " is based in " +
                data.val().Location
            );
          });
        });
    }
function searchSkill(agent) {
      var scoresRef = db.ref("myDatabase");
      scoresRef
        .orderByChild("Skill")
        .equalTo(agent.parameters.person_skill)
        .on("value", function(snapshot) {
          snapshot.forEach(function(data) {
            agent.add(
              "The WTM lead expert at " +
                data.val().Skill +
                " is " +
                data.val().Name
            );
          });
        });
    }

Final Code

This is how the final code can look like.

IMPORTANT: make sure you have your own Database URL, instead of: https://wtm-summit-f6708.firebaseio.com

index.js
const functions = require(firebase-functions); 
const { WebhookClient } = require(dialogflow-fulfillment); 
const { Card, Suggestion } = require(dialogflow-fulfillment);
process.env.DEBUG = 'dialogflow:debug'; 
// enables lib debugging statements
var admin = require(firebase-admin); 
admin.initializeApp({ databaseURL: https://wtm-summit-f6708.firebaseio.com/ });
var db = admin.database();
process.env.DEBUG = "dialogflow:debug"; // enables lib debugging statements
exports.dialogflowFirebaseFulfillment = functions.https.onRequest( (request, response) => { const agent = new WebhookClient({ request, response }); console.log( "Dialogflow Request headers: " + JSON.stringify(request.headers) ); console.log("Dialogflow Request body: " + JSON.stringify(request.body));
function welcome(agent) {
  agent.add(`Hello! Welcome to the WTM leads directory conversational app. Would you like to find a lead by 1. Name,  2. Location or 3. Skill`);
}

function fallback(agent) {
  agent.add(`Dear WTM Lead, sorry but could you say that one more time?`);
  agent.add(`hey WTM Lead, I missed what you said. Say it again?`);
}

function getSearchTerm(agent) {
  if (agent.parameters.search_terms == 1) {
    agent.add(`What's the WTM lead's name?`);
  } else if (agent.parameters.search_terms == 2) {
    agent.add(`For which location are you interested?`);
  } else {
    agent.add(`Which skill are you looking for?`);
  }
}

function searchName(agent) {
  var results = db.ref("databaseAmandaEliza");
  results
    .orderByChild("Name")
    .startAt(agent.parameters.person_name)
    .endAt(`${agent.parameters.person_name}~`)
    .on("value", function(snapshot) {
      snapshot.forEach(function(data) {
          console.log(`The WTM lead's email is ${data.val().Email}`);
        agent.add(`The WTM lead's email is ${data.val().Email}`);
      });
    });
}

function searchLocation(agent) {
  var ref = db.ref("databaseAmandaEliza");
  ref
    .orderByChild("Location")
    .equalTo(agent.parameters.person_location)
    .on("value", function(snapshot) {
      snapshot.forEach(function(data) {
        console.log(
          "The WTM lead" + data.val().Name + " - " + data.val().Location
        );
        agent.add(
          "The WTM lead " +
            data.val().Name +
            " is based in " +
            data.val().Location
        );
      });
    });
}

function searchSkill(agent) {
  var scoresRef = db.ref("databaseAmandaEliza");
  scoresRef
    .orderByChild("Skill")
    .equalTo(agent.parameters.person_skill)
    .on("value", function(snapshot) {
      snapshot.forEach(function(data) {
        agent.add(
          "The WTM lead expert at " +
            data.val().Skill +
            " is " +
            data.val().Name
        );
      });
    });
}

let intentMap = new Map();
intentMap.set('Default Welcome Intent', welcome);
intentMap.set('Default Fallback Intent', fallback);
intentMap.set("Default Welcome Intent - search", getSearchTerm);
intentMap.set("Default Welcome Intent - search - get_name", searchName);
intentMap.set("Default Welcome Intent - search - get_location",searchLocation);
intentMap.set("Default Welcome Intent - search - get_skill", searchSkill);
agent.handleRequest(intentMap);
} );
