Parse node

Parse the inbound chat message and extract a specific type (string, number, email, location, etc) then store the value in the context flow and pass through the output pin (in msg.payload)

Available parse type are:

• string: any payload of type string will be accepted
• boolean: returns true for any words like yes, true, ok, etc
• email: extract a valid email in the incoming message
• date: extract a valid date from the incoming message
• integer-number: extract a integer number (written in numbers or plain english)
• location: extract the location from a location chat message (the one sent by the chat client when the user shares the position). The value extracted will be something like {latitude: 45.001, longitude: 21.001}
• contact: extract the phone number from a contact type message (a user that shares a contact)
• photo: extract the image from a chat message containing a picture, the resulting payload is suitable to be sent to file node (a NodeJS Buffer)
• audio: extract the audio payload from an audio chat message, the resulting payload is suitable to be sent to file node. Audio format depends on platform (for example Telegram: Ogg Vorbis (*.ogg)
