google wave OnBlipSubmitted

I'm try开发者_JAVA技巧ing to create a wave robot, and I have the basic stuff working. I'm trying to create a new blip with help text when someone types @help but for some reason it doesnt create it. I'm getting no errors in the log console, and I'm seeing the info log 'in @log'

def OnBlipSubmitted(properties, context):
  # Get the blip that was just submitted.
  blip = context.GetBlipById(properties['blipId'])
  text = blip.GetDocument().GetText()
  if text.startswith('@help') == True:
    logging.info('in @help')
    blip.CreateChild().GetDocument().SetText('help text')

if it just started working, I have two suggestions...

-->Have you been updating the Robot Version in the constructor? You should change the values as you update changes so that the caches can be updated.

if __name__ == '__main__':                                          
    myRobot = robot.Robot('waverobotdev',
                           image_url = baseurl + 'assets/wave_robot_icon.png',
                           version = '61',  # <-------------HERE
                           profile_url = baseurl)

-->The server connection between Wave and AppSpot has recently been extremely variable. Sometimes it takes 10+ minutes for the AppSpot server to receive my event, othertimes a few seconds. Verify you're receiving the events you expect.

Edit: The code you provided looks good, so I wouldn't expect you're doing anything wrong in that respect.

Have you tried using Append() instead of SetText()? That's what I'd do in my C# API - I haven't used the Python API, but I'd imagine it's similar. Here's a sample from my demo robot:

protected override void OnBlipSubmitted(IEvent e)
{
    if (e.Blip.Document.Text.Contains("robot"))
    {
        IBlip blip = e.Blip.CreateChild();
        ITextView textView = blip.Document;
        textView.Append("Are you talking to me?");
    }
}

That works fine.

EDIT: Here's the resulting JSON from the above code:

      }
    ]
  }
}

How does that compare with the JSON which comes out of your robot?

For some reason it just started working. I think the google wave is spotty.
