🤖ChatBot

Install requirements

pip install -r requirements.txt

Note: this application requires Python 3.7.

Standalone

path_to_python3.7_exec pd-chatbot\bot.py 

Socket

First run the socket server program.

path_to_python3.7_exec pd-chatbot\socket\server.py 

Then, in another terminal, run the socket client program.

path_to_python3.7_exec pd-chatbot\socket\client.py 

Now just write the input in the client program and wait for the server (the chatbot) to respond.

RPC

Running the RPC implementation is similar to what was described above for Socket. In a terminal, we first run the server.

path_to_python3.7_exec pd-chatbot\rpc\server.py 

Then, in another terminal, we run the client.

path_to_python3.7_exec pd-chatbot\rpc\client.py 

Same as the Socket version, inputs are made on the client side; wait for the bot response via RPC server.

Web service

The web service was built using Flask and the application runs on localhost:5000 (or http://127.0.0.1:5000), route "/bot". The user must submit (HTTP Post) a JSON via body in the format {"message": "lorem ipsum"} and the return will be a JSON like {"response": "lorem ipsum"} in which the value of "response" is the response of the bot.
