Can not install "npm install -g botdispatch" on Azure app service on linux

I was trying to install botdispatch npm module as a part of bot framework 4 on Azure app service on Linux and I get stuck with this error.

Here's the error that I get:

    root@1c46f16cd26b:/home/site/wwwroot# **npm install -g botdispatch**
    /usr/local/bin/dispatch -> /usr/local/lib/node_modules/botdispatch/bin/dispatch.js

    > [email protected] postinstall /usr/local/lib/node_modules/botdispatch/node_modules/dotnet-2.1
    > node -e "/*PostInstall: Installs platform-specific .NET framework */try{require('./dist/app.js')}catch(e){}"

    events.js:167
          throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
          ^

After removing the module and manually deleting "bot dispatcher" from global module folder and installing it worked for me.

From the documentation, this module requires .NET Core as a pre-requisite. Depending on which framework version you are using on App Service, you might need some modifications to your approach. https://www.npmjs.com/package/botdispatch
