The Bot can be also be asked about myths and rumours related and it also has the capability to mail a detailed report regarding the pandemic to the user.
This project is made using Google Dialogflow and the Language and Framework used for Backend Fulfillment is Python.
For Front-End Development: Dialogflow Console.
For Back-End Development: Python, Flask, Ngrok, Postman, Restful API, HTML, Javascript, CSS, Bootstrap, Pivotal Web Services, Kommunicate.io integration, Google Colab, Heroku, Git, SMTP services.
If you're working on a Local Machine, install the dependencies from your terminal with -
pip install -r requirements.txt
For developmental purposes and local hosting I've used ngrok framework and flask api. The Coder Editor in which I've developed the code is VS Code.
For Front-End Development,
1.Use the Dialogflow console to develop and design all the neccessary intents and entities according to your purpose.
For Back-End Development and webhook connection,
- Open your terminal, and then run your Flask app as
python app.py. - It will now get hosted in your local system with the IP as
127.0.0.1/5000ie hosted on port 5000. (you can explicitely specify the port number though). - Now, run
ngrok http [port-number]. In my case, port-number = 5000. - If your deployment is successful, it will provide you with an IP address. Feed that IP address as
ip-address/webhookinto your dialogflow fulfillment console. - Now, test the API using
POSTMAN. If it's alright, we're good to go. - Set-up all necessary developments required such as STMP Server, fulfillment texts etc.
- After sucessfull completion of steps 1-6, deploy the
CovidBotto a cloud services platform. I've used Pivotal Web Services here. In your terminal, after install of pivotal-cli typecf loginto login into your credentials and thencf pushto push your local repository. After sucessful deployment, a valid IP address of the deployment will be given and then update the fulfillment link in the Dialogflow console as[ip-address]/webhook.
