Getting lots of client_conversation events

[djacobow]

I'm working on a bot. It seems that whenever I receive a chat message, or whenever I send a message, I always get a client_conversation event. So pretty much with any chat message in any direction.

I think my code wasnt always doing this, so I'm thinking i changed something that changed the behavior. Any idea what that might be?

Or maybe this is normal?

I also notice that when i interact with my bot, all my devices ring, not just the one that I'm using at the time. Is that related?

Thanks!

I started coding for my bot a few months ago, based on hangupsjs, and this seems to be normal. It is also preferable, because I can run a bot and chat normally using the same account.

The XMPP bridge in Google Hangouts (not used by hangupsjs) has some limitations and never broadcasts own messages back or AFAIR to other devices for the same user.

Hmm, ok. Well, perhaps I will not worry about it, then. :-)
