Botfuel

WARNING: This project is not actively maintained. I'll accept PRs but don't except the library to follow the API changes.

This is an (unofficial) Elixir SDK for the Botfuel.io NLP bot platform. Feedback and contributions are of course welcome.

Installation

You can use botfuel directly from Hex. Just add the corresponding line to your mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:botfuel, "~> 0.1"}
  ]
end

Or (recommended)

def deps do
  [
    {:botfuel, github: "tchoutri/botfuel-elixir-sdk"}
  ]
end

Usage

You can start the Botfuel.Client module manually in your Supervision tree, like that:

defmodule Application do
  # See https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/Application.html
  # for more information on OTP Applications
  @moduledoc false

  use Application

  def start(_type, _args) do
    {app_id = System.get_env("BTFL_APPID"), app_key = System.get_env("BTFL_APPKEY")}

    children = [
      {Botfuel.Client, %{app_id: app_id, app_key: app_key}}
    ]

    # See https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/Supervisor.html
    # for other strategies and supported options
    opts = [strategy: :one_for_one, name: Gazoline.Supervisor]
    Supervisor.start_link(children, opts)
  end
end

or use Botfuel.new_client(%{app_id: <your app ID>, app_key: <your app key>}).

iex(1)> Botfuel.new_client(%{app_id: app_id, app_key: app_key})
{:ok, #PID<0.189.0>}

Moreover, the top-level module exports 3 functions to interact with the platform:

• extract_entity/1
• spellcheck/3
• classify/1

Read the docs ;)

I want to take great care of the documentation, but everyone's different so don't hesitate and reach to me if you feel it could be improved!
Thanks ❤️
