Smart routing for Chatbot webhooks #chatbot #webhook #crossplatform #abtesting #canary
BotTraffic is a lightweight rule-based engine to route incoming webhooks traffic to backend services, allowing teams to perform AB Testing, Blue-Green deployment, Canary Releasing.
Alongside routing the goal is to support 'shadowing' (send clone of a request to a service ie metrics, auditing, post-analysis) and 'filtering' (filter incoming requests ie pre-processing).
In a nutshell:
- lightweight framework
- multi channel (Facebook, DialogFlow, Microsoft BOT, Chatfuel, Telegram, Slack, etc..)
- routing, shadowing and filtering based on rules: applicable to request parameters, headers and payload. Various operators are supported (ie EQUAL, EQUAL_IGNORE_CASE, START_WITH, etc..)
- extendable event management (with built-in Prometheus events)
- GET and POST support
See Examples to understand more.
Copy files in config folder and modify them accordingly (add rules and services).
Run the Docker image (ARM architecture)
docker login
docker pull perosa/bottraffic
docker run -p 8080:8886 -v /config:/software/config perosa/bottraffic
- Customize config/service.json to define Webhooks endpoints
- Customize config/rules.json to define routing rules
In the pipeline:
- K8s support
- Web UI to define rules and target services
- Service Discovery
- REST API to add/edit/remove rules
- GitLab System Hook
