Moodbot

The moodbot example simulates how you can use your bot on different channels.

What’s inside this example?

This example contains some training data and the main files needed to build an assistant on your local machine. The moodbot consists of the following files:

• data/nlu.yml contains training examples for the NLU model
• data/stories.yml contains training stories for the Core model
• config.yml contains the model configuration
• domain.yml contains the domain of the assistant
• credentials.yml contains credentials for the different channels

How to use this example?

Using this example you can build an actual assistant and chat with it on different channels. To do so execute the following steps:

1. Train a Rasa model containing the Rasa NLU and Rasa Core models by running:

   rasa train
   

   The model will be stored in the /models directory as a zipped file.

2. Run a Rasa server that connects, for example, to Facebook:

   rasa run -m models -p 5002 --connector facebook --credentials credentials.yml
   

   If you want to connect to a different channel, replace facebook with the name of the desired channel. All available channels are listed in the credentials.yml file. For more information on the different channels read our documentation

   If you don't want to use any channel, you can chat with your bot on the command line, using the following command:

   rasa shell
   

For more information about the individual commands, please check out our documentation.
