State-Chats

State-Chats is a JavaScript/TypeScript library designed to facilitate the creation and management of stateful chat interactions. It leverages asynchronous generators and event-driven patterns to offer a flexible and intuitive API for building complex chat flows.

Features

• Asynchronous Chat Flow: Manage chat interactions with asynchronous support, allowing for delays and dynamic responses.
• Event-Driven Architecture: Utilize a robust event system for handling messages, prompts, and chat lifecycle events.
• Customizable and Extensible: Easily extend and customize chat flows to fit various use cases.
• Isomorphic Library: Compatible with both Node.js and browser environments.
• React Hook Integration (Coming Soon): Integrate easily with React applications using a custom hook.

Installation

npm install state-chats
# or
yarn add state-chats

Usage

Here is a basic example of how to use State-Chats:

import { getChat } from 'state-chats';

// Define your chat script
const script = [
  // Your chat script goes here
];

const chat = getChat(script);

chat.on('message', (message) => {
  console.log(message);
});

chat.on('prompt', (send) => {
  send('Your response');
});

chat.start();

// To stop the chat
chat.stop();

Script Structure

A script in State-Chats is defined as an array of chat messages, each with potential conditions, delays, or prompts for user input. Here's a short example:

const exampleScript = [
  {
    content: 'Hello! Are you an admin?',
    variable: 'admin',
  },
  {
    condition: {
      type: 'equals',
      variable: 'admin',
      value: 'yes',
    },
    content: 'Great, nice to meet you, admin!',
    delay: 1000,
  },
  {
    condition: {
      type: 'not',
      condition: {
        type: 'equals',
        variable: 'admin',
        value: 'yes',
      },
    },
    content: 'Oh snap!',
    delay: 1000,
  },
  {
    content: 'Anyways, glad to see you',
    delay: 1000,
  },
];
