Global commands in scenes

I have a problem with using scenes and commands. I need to have a command that leaves the scene. When I type /cancel at the scene it’s ignoring me and continue to do other actions.

Example:

// app.js

import Telegraf, { session } from 'telegraf'
import Stage from 'telegraf/stage'

import testScene from './scenes/test'

const telegraf = new Telegraf(process.env.TOKEN)
const stage = new Stage([
  testScene
])

telegraf.use(session())
telegraf.use(stage.middleware())

telegraf.command('cancel', async ({ reply, scene }) => {
  await reply('Hey, you canceled previous scene!')
  await scene.leave()
})

telegraf.startPolling()

// scenes/test/index.js

import Scene from 'telegraf/scenes/base'

const scene = new Scene('echo')

scene.enter(async ({ reply }) => reply('Hello.'))
scene.leave(async ({ reply }) => reply('Goodbye.'))

scene.on('text', async ({ reply }) => reply('Ping Pong.'))

export default scene

Hey @mvrlin

To add global command to all scenes, you can use stage.command:

// app.js

import Telegraf, { session } from 'telegraf'
import Stage from 'telegraf/stage'

import testScene from './scenes/test'

const telegraf = new Telegraf(process.env.TOKEN)
const stage = new Stage([
  testScene
])
stage.command('cancel', async ({ reply, scene }) => {
  await reply('Hey, you canceled previous scene!')
  await scene.leave()
})

telegraf.use(session())
telegraf.use(stage.middleware())

telegraf.startPolling()
