CatBot

This is an example of a full stack chatbot created with Amazon Lex, Loopback and React.

Build and Run

Clone the repo and, in the root directory:

$ npm i
$ npm run build
$ touch .env

You'll need to connect to a chatbot built with Lex using your AWS credentials; put those credentials in ./.env:

AWS_access_key_id=<your aws access key id here>
AWS_secret_access_key=<your aws secret access key here>

Update common/models/utterance.js to reflect your changes; specifically, botAlias and botName on lines 18-19 must match your bot's values.

Once you have that setup:

$ node .

Your bot should be up and running at localhost:3000.
