Bot platform adapter for Botpress

[engelgabriel]

I am pretty impressed by www.botpress.io

https://docs.botpress.io/creating-a-module.html

there is some try here: https://github.com/labzone/botpress-rocketchat

The recent release of our Node.js SDK with a platform agnostic driver for building bots on Rocket.Chat should unlock potential for this issue. We're hoping to make progress from upcoming Google Summer of Code projects but also encourage any interested community members to check out the SDK and start building for their preferred platform.

Get the SDK

See examples implementation in Hubot adapter

@arthurTemporim - same here as #9937

I've invited anyone from the Botpress community slack to join a new #bp-rocketchat channel there and follow this issue too. Hopefully some who are more familiar with that end can reach out and help meet us in the middle.

@timkinnane Any plan for this?

[timkinnane]

@mnlbox there's been a lot of progress actually. @diegodorgam can you update this ticket, link to the connector and maybe close if it's production ready. Probably needs a docs update too.

[timkinnane]

@mnlbox please see https://github.com/RocketChat/botpress-channel-rocketchat

It's a shame nobody will update this issue.

we are really interested to know what is the progress so far in botpress and rocket chat integration.

Hi there, is there any update on this? Unfortunately the botpress-channel-rocketchat is several versions behind botpress now.

[JackNWeems]

I'm interested in doing some development on this but have no idea where to start. Is there anyone who can point me in the right direction?

[FrankDaze]

I just wrote a Rocket.Chat app for a botpress connection. You can chat with the bot in a direct message.
It's really easy to setup the connection.

My only problem is to receive the app settings on update. I can't find our how to use onSettingsUpdate event to do that.

[FrankDaze]

Ok, I fixed my problem. I fill the app settings in public static variables and this variables can be updates in onSettingsUpdate event.
