Programming Model

The LexFulfillment Lambda function responds to Lex in accordance with the Lex Response Format.

The message field is used as intended - plays an audible prompt to the user by TTS.

Unfortunately, responseCard is not available to speech requests, so sessionAttributes are used to send commands back to the IDE:

• invokeAction: invokes the named IntelliJ Action - built-in or custom actions are both supported

• pressKeystroke: a comma-delimited list of integer values may be dispatched to the IDE

• Verbosity: Lex insists on responses having a non-empty message, but in Idear not all commands require audible feedback.

  • 'INFO' if an audible prompt is required (eg "what's the name of the class").
  • 'DEBUG' for prompts which may be useful for the visually impaired
  • 'ALL' where nobody would be interested in hearing the message
