This is generic platform, build on Node.js that routes commands and messages from voice or text-based clients to 3rd party or custom backends. Functionality is added via plugins or your own custom handlers (available when running as module).
You are looking at a monorepo for the Manny Talk project. For more details on Manny Talk and how to use it, read the core package readme.
The different packages can be found in packages/. These consist of the Manny Talk core,and plugins.
When using the docker-compose.yml in the repository root, run that using: docker-compose up.
This will start up npm run watch for the manny-talk-core package. Open a second shell and run
docker-compose exec node bash to open a shell into the running container. Use
any command to perform your task.
Contributions are welcome. This does not necessarily have to be code, it can also be updated documentation, tutorials, bug reports or pull requests.
Please create an issue to propose a feature you want to implement, so that the details can be discussed in advance.
This project also aims to provide a simple way to get a chatbot on multiple channels running. The two biggest differences are that it seems to focus mostly on a standalone bottender server (it is possible to run it as a module, but the examples did not look simple). Its missing a HTTP API and clients/channels are hardcoded into the project and it did not seem very simple to add a new channel without touching the core.
