Getting Started

This is a project that will use the simsimi API to create a chatterbot on the telegram to chat with other users, which can be used for testing purposes.

Below, I am providing instructions for you to have a copy of the project. These instructions will show you how to start using it for learning, development and testing purposes.

Configuring the bot to run on the terminal

You must have your machine up to date and have Python 3 installed, as well as some modules, such as: flask and requests, if you don't have it, you will need to install it this way here:

# Tested on Ubuntu 14.04, 15.04 and 16.04, Debian 7, Linux Mint 17.2
$ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade   
$ sudo apt install python3 && python3-pip
$ sudo pip3 install flask && requests

With everything installed, we will clone the repository like this:

$ git clone https://github.com/VycktorStark/SimSimi.git

With the repository installed, you must have the bot token created by BotFather; if you don't have one, you'll need to create one (more information on official robot FAQ page)

To add your token to the project, I advise you to configure your ".bashrc", putting something like:

export LN="en"
export SECRET_KEY="12918981:dFwnfweFw2oju28ru239r8389iEJOIJO"
export SECRET_KEY_SIMSIMI="dFw1weFs212w8r2u239r813JO9"

Or just configure the tools.py, To obtain a simsimi token key to use this project, visit developer.simsimi.com, where you will find all instructions Note: this API is paid according to usage, and the free version can be used for the period of time established; see this information directly on the website

Boot process

  • To start the bot, run: sudo ./main.py
  • To stop the bot, press Ctrl + C. You can also start the bot with python3 main.py

Configuring the bot to run on heroku

Click the button below and configure your language, also setting your bot's token.

Deploy to Heroku

Only that, the project will already be working.
