This week I have been mainly working on my Capstone project Teams bot.

In terms of the progress made, I have:

• Attempted to make proactive messaging, but put on hold due to failure (most likely due to missing Azure Registration and true Teams compatibility)
• Learned how to create adaptive cards
• Used API to send random Pokemon image upon request

#TEMPORARILY ON HOLD (WILL TRY WITH AZURE REGISTRSTION)
"""@app.on_message_pattern(re.compile(r"remind"))
async def handle_proactive_message(ctx:ActivityContext[MessageActivity]) -> None:
    # Use the standard from_.id for consistency
    user_id = ctx.activity.from_.id
    storage[user_id] = ctx.activity.conversation.id

    await ctx.send("Okay")
    scheduler.add_job(
        send_proactive_notification, 
        'date', # Use 'date' for a one-time reminder in 10s
        run_date=datetime.now() + timedelta(seconds=10),
        args=[user_id], 
        id=f"remind_{user_id}",
        replace_existing=True
    )

async def send_proactive_notification(user_id: str):
    conversation_id = storage.get(user_id)
    if not conversation_id:
        print(f"DEBUG: No conversation found for {user_id}") # Check your console!
        return
    
    # Required: Proactive messages often need an explicit recipient account
    activity = MessageActivityInput(text="I'm reminding u bro").with_recipient(Account(id=user_id))
    
    await app.send(conversation_id, activity)"""

Above is the code for the proactive messaging which is on hold due to lack of proper integration into Microsoft Teams.

@app.on_message_pattern(re.compile(r"image|sendimage|imagepls"))
async def handle_image_request(ctx: ActivityContext[MessageActivity]) -> None:
    """send image as adaptive card"""
    num = random.randint(1,1025)
    card = AdaptiveCard(
        body=[
            Image(
                url=f"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PokeAPI/sprites/master/sprites/pokemon/{num}.png",
                size="Large",
                alt_text="ditto"
            )
        ]
    )

    await ctx.send(card)

Above is the code to send adaptive card with a random pokemon image.
