Node.js module that provides Wit.ai NLP integration for the Microsoft Bot Builder SDK.
npm install --save botbuilder-wit
This package does not work with Wit.ai's Story feature. This is by design. That doesn't mean you can't use it entirely, just not in combination with the IntentDialog that uses the WitRecognizer.
const { IntentDialog } = require('botbuilder');
const WitRecognizer = require('botbuilder-wit');
const recognizer = new WitRecognizer('Wit.ai_access_token');
const intents = new IntentDialog({recognizers: [recognizer]});
intents.matches('intent.name', (session, args) => {...});
intents.onDefault(session => {...});
bot.dialog('/', intents)
You can use the utility class EntityRecognizer to parse & resolve common entities.
// Inside your dialog handler that receives the session and arguments object
const { EntityRecognizer } = require('botbuilder');
const location = EntityRecognizer.findEntity(args.entities, 'location')
You can still use the Wit.ai client directly by accessing the witClient property of the instantiated WitRecognizer.
const recognizer = new WitRecognizer('Wit.ai_access_token');
const witClient = recognizer.witClient;
If you want to recompile the source, you will need to make sure the node-wit dependency has a type definitions file in its root directory. At the moment, they're not yet available in the DefinitelyTyped repository. However, in the resources directory you'll find a minimalistic version that will do the job.
