Decision

PENDING

As a solution owner, I would want to deploy menu options faster without having to depend on a release on both portal and WhatsApp with the following details -

  1. Able to change the text

  2. Able to change the menu options (Add/edit/remove)

  3. Able to create new flows/structure such as introducing new menu options which are not there

  4. Able to change answers to queries

  5. Able to add/edit/remove hyperlinks

  6. Able to analyze the data after changes

It takes place for any owner can change the menu-driven flow for the chatbot and its full flex change any time without doing code change in a git repository.

  • It will help with a faster deployment process.

  • Quick change based on the requirement and easy to deploy.

  • Any time/ anyone / any flow/menu text can change quickly.

  • Add/Edit change the text for Menu options.

Overview

Using AWS container

Enable load and execute config from was container for chatbot.

  • Make literals and chartflow configurable.

  • Keep files in blob storage public accessible.

  • While doing build for chatbot/router run below commands in dockerFile 

    FROM node:10.19.0 as builder
WORKDIR /app
COPY . /app

ADD http://source.file/config/literals  /config/literals.js 
ADD http://source.file/config/chatflow  /config/chatflow.js
RUN npm install

FROM node:10.19-slim
COPY --from=builder /app .
EXPOSE 4000 8443
CMD [ "node", "appRest.js" ]

  • For every build it will download it from blob and add it /router/config/* files.

  • So now we can change the only those required files and do build and deploy

Using API (DB)

Store config in Database to fetch and update config. It all using API’s to create and update config using JSON object as request body.

Create
{{host}}/chatbot/config/create
Update
{{host}}/chatbot/config/update

This will take place in jenkins job,

Any owner can update config
