Annoated Bot Code

Full source in git repo

./lib/greenbot.rb is a convenience library for IO. Used for note, confirm..

require './lib/greenbot.rb'
require 'timeout'

Ask user if they want us to contact the owner of the bot

tell 'Thank you for texting us. This KISST bot is currently under construction. If you are looking for the owner of this number, I can take a message.'
if confirm('Would you like someone to contact you?')

If so, set the contact me to true and save it in the collected data

  contact_me = true
  contact_me.remember('contact_me')

Ask for the persons name, and remember it.

  name = ask('When we call, who should we ask for?')
  name.remember('who_to_ask_for')

Ask for another number, collect it if you can.

  if confirm('Is there another number we should try?')
    better_number = ask('Please enter that number with an area code')
    better_number.remember('better_number')
  end
end

Ask if they want us to take a message for hte owner. Use the note function so we can take multiple messages.

if confirm('Would you like to leave a message?')
  note = note('How can we help you? Please use as many messages as you need.')
  note.remember('note')
  tell 'Thank you. We will forward the message.'
end

And that's it. Say good bye

tell 'Goodbye.'
