Introduction

What is BotScript?

BotScript is a text-based scripting language and bot engine for creating human-like conversation chat bots.

Why BotScript?

If you're looking to create complex conversations with natural dialogue and different topics, BotScript is for you!

  • Document specification
  • Dialog engine
  • Message pipeline with NLP support
  • Extensible plugin architecture to call your own APIs or do your own NLP if you want to!

Glossary

  • Input: the message sent by the user to the bot.
  • Trigger: a string that is matched against the user's input in order to work out how to respond.
  • Reply: a specific reply given by the bot under certain conditions.
  • Interaction: a block includes a trigger with one or more replies and any additional rules that tell the bot how to reply to a specific input.
  • Topic: a way to logically group one or more interactions that are about a certain topic, such as football or swimming. All your conversations start within a topic. BotScript will continue to search topics until it finds a matching trigger and reply.
  • Conversation: a set of stories that will only match if a previous interaction in the conversation chain has already been matched.
