- Get matched group
- Recursion
- Condition
- Change Topic
- Interact with python function
- REST API integration
- Topic based group
- Learn
- To upper case
- To lower case
- Capitalize

Memory
Set Memory
{ variable : value }
In think mode
{! variable : value }
Get Memory
{ variable }
Get matched group
for grouping in regex refer Python regular expression docs
Get Nth matched group of client pattern
%N
Example to get first matched
%1
Get matching named group of client pattern
%Client_pattern_group_name
Example to get matching named group person
%person
Get Nth matched group of bots message pattern
%!N
Example to get first matched
%!1
Get matching named group of bots message pattern
%!Bot_pattern_group_name
Example to get matching named group region
%!region
Recursion
Get response as if client said this new statement
{% chat statement %}
It will do a pattern match for statement
Condition
{% if condition %} do this first {% elif condition %} do this next {% else %} do otherwise {% endif %}
Change Topic
{% topic TopicName %}
Interact with python function
In python
@register_call("functionName")
def function_name(session, query):
return "response string"
In template
{% call functionName: value %}
REST API integration
In API.json file
{
"APIName":{
"auth" : {
"url":"https://your_rest_api_url/login.json",
"method":"POST",
"data":{
"user":"Your_Username",
"password":"Your_Password"
}
},
"MethodName" : {
"url":"https://your_rest_api_url/GET_method_Example.json",
"method":"GET",
"params":{
"key1":"value1",
"key2":"value2",
...
},
"value_getter":[order in which data has to be picked from json response]
},
"MethodName1" : {
"url":"https://your_rest_api_url/GET_method_Example.json",
"method":"POST",
"data":{
"key1":"value1",
"key2":"value2",
...
},
"value_getter":[order in which data has to be picked from json response]
},
"MethodName2" : {
...
},
...
},
"APIName2":{
...
},
...
}
If authentication is required only then auth
method is needed.The data
and params
defined in pi.json file acts as defult values and all key value pair defined in template file overrides the default value.value_getter
consistes of list of keys in order using which info from json will be collected.
In Template file
[ APIName:MethodName,Key1:value1 (,Key*:value*) ]
you can have any number of key value pair and all key value pair will override data or params depending on method
, if method
is POST
then it overrides data and if method is GET
then it overrides params
.
