## Getting started

### Register the middleware for Express and provide a function to handle incoming messages

```javascript
var express = require('express');
var botHelper = require('fbmessenger-express-bot');
var app = express();

app.use(botHelper({
    pageAccessToken: 'your_token_here', // Facebook page access token, set in Facebook App Dashboard
    route: '/webhook', // Webhook endpoint path for incoming messages
    handle: myFunction // The function that will be called when a message comes in
}));
```

## Configuration
