The new bot SDK bindings were published on npm yesterday! Bot developers can use this to write VP bots running in Node.js. Because it is using a WebAssembly build of VPSDK compiled with Emscripten it should be easily portable to all platforms supported by Node.js.

Here’s a code example for a bot that shows chat, shows avatar names and replies to messages starting with an underscore:

Some basic events (connection, avatars, chat) and methods (chat, query, teleport) are supported but the bindings are still incomplete. Code contributions, bug reports and feature requests are welcome. These can be done through the GitHub repository for this project.
