How to run this
Important: You will need to run the development botpress branch (next
) in order for this demo to work. The reason is because the fullscreen features is unreleased yet.
- Compile botpress on branch
next
npm link ../path/to/botpress
in your bot- Run your bot and navigate to the
botpress-web
module interface - Append the
viewMode=3
to the URL query to put it in fullscreen
TODO
- Users are currently all anonymous / unauthenticated / unidentified
- This works only with one user (the bot currently broadcasts to all users)
- Change the background
- Fix the File Selector
- Handle File Uploads
- Handle typing indicator
Pro Version
- Make the chat style customizable (pro version, ask @Sylvain about this)
Caveats
- If you're running the bot in NODE_ENV=production, the module will prompt a login screen. We solved this situation in Botpress Pro (ask @Sylvain about this). To run this in production you essentially need a Pro version due to technical limitations regarding authentication & UI.
