Medius Health Backend Engineering Challenge
Language: Python version 3.7.1
Python Django and Django channels for web socket implementation is used for the minimal chatbot web application.
Aim of the Project
Making use of a python-based web server (preferably Django), socket communication concepts, and a database that drives the real-time chat server
Further Considerations
- Asynchronous web socket consumer with user authentication can be applied for production use.
- Python modules like chatterbot and trained bots and/or various DOM elements can be used for handling much complexity.
- For Bot dialogs, one-to-many relationships can be constructed in database.
Setup Instructions
- Firstly, Unzip bot directory
- Run the cmd / terminal and go to working directory (..\mediusChatBot)
- Install required packages for Python
$ pip install -r requirements.txt- In current directory, run
python manage.py runserver - On the browser, open
