Proposed Changes
This commit adds a convenient way to add skill connections, that have not already been covered by the multiple Output classes already provided. This is especially helpful, if you want to target a specific Task (e. g. in a specific skill), as the already provided output classes only covered predefined tasks.
The main new class added here is the
StartConnectionOutput
, which is a the most basic StartConnection Template, that should cover all types of StartConnection Directives the developer needs. Therefore I also refactored the already existing Outputs to use this more generic Output, to make these classes a bit more concise.I tested the new class heavliy as well as made sure, that the refactored classes still work the same. In my tests, everything worked perfectly.
I also added documentation with links to the alexa developer documentation to explain how to use this new feature!
