Step1: Creating the Empty NodeJS Project.

2. npm install botbuilder --save

const restify = require('restify');
const skype = require('skype-sdk');
const builder = require('botbuilder');

Note: skype-sdk is not available in npm package manager or you will get empty directory while downloading from npm package manager. download it from here.

Step3: Create and Initialize the Skype BotService with Default Configurations.

const botService = new skype.BotService({
    messaging: {
        botId: "28:f53d6e20-1e46-4cee-884d-***************",
        serverUrl : "https://apis.skype.com",
        requestTimeout : 15000,
        appId: 'f53d6e20-1e46-4cee-884d-************',
        appSecret: 'vFkWqyob2Tvdc**********'
    }

Step4: Create REST API with Restify Server.
const server = restify.createServer();

Step5: Create Skype Event Handler's. 

botService.on('contactAdded', (bot, data) => {
    bot.reply(`Hello ${data.fromDisplayName}!`, true);
});

botService.on('personalMessage', (bot, data) => {
    bot.reply(`Hey ${data.from}. Thank you for your message: "${data.content}".`, true);
});

Step6: Create Skype POST Method API Call, Skype webhook will trigger with POST method and passing with bot Object & data.

}

Step7: Create a Server listener

server.listen(process.env.PORT || 1328, function () {

    //console.log(bot);
});
