RiveScript Playground

02-rivescript.py

The RiveScript Playground is a web app where bot makers can develop, test, and share code snippets for RiveScript bots. It uses the JavaScript edition of RiveScript, so the bot runs on the user's own web browser, and provides a way to share code snippets with others (for example, to demonstrate how to do something or reproduce a bug).

You can use the live RiveScript Playground site at https://play.rivescript.com/

This is a simple Python Flask web app that requires no database or configuration at all: not even session secret keys need to be set up.

Installation

The only dependency for this app is Flask itself (and Flask's dependencies).

Create a virtual environment for Python 3 and run:

pip install -r requirements.txt

To launch the server for local debugging and testing:

python run.py

There is an example app.wsgi and wsgi_gunicorn.py for running the app in production using mod_wsgi or gunicorn, respectively. Refer to the Flask documentation for deployment options.

Configuration

If you're serving this behind a proxy (so that the "remote address" isn't the visitor's real IP address), run the app with the environment variable USE_X_FORWARDED_FOR set to a truthy value. Don't do this if you're not running the app from behind a proxy, though, or users can spoof their own IP addresses!

Shared Snippets

This app requires no configuration, but the "Share" feature of the app needs to write a SQLite database file named database.sqlite to the hard disk in its current working directory. It will need permission to create this file when it doesn't exist, update it and read from it.

Here is an example Supervisor configuration for running this app:

[program:rivescript_playground]
command = /home/www/.pyvenv/playground/bin/gunicorn -b 127.0.0.1:9004 -u www -g www wsgi_gunicorn:app
directory = /home/www/git/rivescript-playground
user = www

In that configuration it runs as an unprivileged user, www and its working directory is set to the git clone where it has permissions to create and manage its share folder.
