Botkit2

Prereqs

• Remove old globally installed @wirelineio/cli if any;

• Install new version:

npm install -g @wirelineio/cli

Chat

• Generate new topic key:

$ openssl rand -hex 32
0a6a89932d5fbbadda979eecd34606f261560441dc2a16c585fa88eeb88c87e7

• Copy created key and run same command in 2 terminals:

wire peer chat --topic <key>

e.g.

wire peer chat --topic 0a6a89932d5fbbadda979eecd34606f261560441dc2a16c585fa88eeb88c87e7

• Type messages in both terminals.

Bots

To start a bot, you can use wire bot run or yarn start in bot folder. Params are (all are optional):

• --name
• --botVersion
• --topic
• --reset

name and botVersion would end up in bot.yml (override current values)

topic would end up in service.yml (override current value). If not provided, generated automatically and stored.

No need to pass the params if config files already exist.

reset would remove bots storage, e.g. reset existed before bots.

yarn clean:bots to do the reset; yarn clean:conf to remove service.yml (on the next start BotFactory would be listening on another topic)

Debug bot

• cd into bot folder and start the factory:

cd ./packages/debug-bot
$ yarn start
yarn run v1.15.2
$ wire bot run -v
  bot Bot started. +0ms
  bot {"peerId":"eighteen-delaware-double-gee","topic":"390b8771a08d7d23bbe7b33f329dbbb6f0b1a86644173e469790892b3c6bb74d"} +3ms

• open a new terminal window, and run wire peer chat --topic <key> with the key from output above:

$ wire peer chat --topic 390b8771a08d7d23bbe7b33f329dbbb6f0b1a86644173e469790892b3c6bb74d
