Telegram Connector
altieres opened this issue · comments
I need to made my nlp bot available on telegram.
I will try to create a telegram-connector based on fb-connector.
It is possible to use nlp to process messages received from telegram, and send back the processed response. But the connector seems to be the right way.
Any advice? Thanks.
Hi @altieres, yes, a Telegram connector can be done, no problem. You can take a look also to rest connector.
@ericzon thanks for your suggestion!
I implemented using just the simple nlp processing: https://github.com/altieres/nlp.js
I think this is enough to my bot for now. Should I PR or create a repository/library apart?
Now I need to understand how the use of Bot class (Msbf) can improve the bot. And make the improvements necessary to work with it. Any directions are welcome!
Hi @altieres , your connector is not taking the bot instrumentation into account, so we'd better keep it apart. If you check the rest connector, if there is a "bot" registered, the processing of the request is delegated to it, so I guess that's what your missing. You can also check the addActivity method in DirectlineController.
