Botkit: Tunnel url not working for facebook webhooks

[shivamsk]

As mentioned in the readme-facebook.md, I've run the command in the botkit folder cloned from github
page_token=xyzsdfdf verify_token=xyz_verify_token node facebook_bot.js [--lt [--ltsubdomain my_app_name]]
Logs:
info: ** Starting webserver on port 3000
info: ** Serving webhook endpoints for Messenger Platform at: http://MY_HOST:3000/facebook/receive

It's not giving the https url to be used in webhooks.

If you're copy/pasting, the end of the command needs to be altered depending if you want to use localtunnel:

page_token=xyzsdfdf verify_token=xyz_verify_token node facebook_bot.js

or

page_token=xyzsdfdf verify_token=xyz_verify_token node facebook_bot.js --lt 8000

also make sure to use the correct page token and verify token from facebook

Put in a PR to clarify correct usage of --lt

i'm having the same issue as @shivamsk . I setup all the correct fields in the .env file (USE_FACEBOOK=true, watsonID, PSW, etc...).
I open the cmd and type

'lt --s watsontyres --p 5000'

where watsontyres is my appname, the reply is

'your url is: https://watsontyres.localtunnel.me'.

I type 'node server.js' and:

_info: * No persistent storage method specified! Data may be lost when process shuts down.
info: * Serving webhook endpoints for Messenger Platform at: http://MY_HOST:undefined/facebook/receive
Facebook bot is live
Client server listening on port 5000_

So i think the problem is here, because it doesn't show the correct url.
Next i go on facebook dev page and when i try to setup the webhook it says 502 bad gateway.
Can you help me solving this problem please?
