How to make command order for bot?

Question

PHP

There is a bot. Have it accept the /new command and then send the user a message like "Send a title". The user sends an ordinary string like "MyName". This is the question: how to implement this? So that the bot accepts a string from the user only after / new

Answer 1

Store state for users. Set it with the /new command and accept a string if a certain state is set.

Answer 2

maybe just set some flag?

private $isInit= false;

public function init()
{
  $this->isInit = true;
}

public function isInit()
{
  return $this->isInit;
}

And then use somewhere in the code$this->isInit()
