Oracle Digital Assistant Sample Web App Readme (v. 19.1.5.0)

hi

Overview

The sample chat app that's included in the bots-client-sdk-js-samples-19.1.5.0.zip file is a mobile app that demonstrates communication with the Oracle Digital Assistant server. You can download this file from the Oracle Technology Network’s ODA downloads page.

Usage

This sample app provides an end-to-end example that you can reference when building your own mobile app. It shows you how to initialize the Bots SDK using an App ID that's generated by Oracle Digital Assistant. It also shows you how to chat with other skills just by changing this App ID.

Supported Browsers

The sample chat app supports all popular browsers.

Desktop Versions

• Chrome: The latest release along with the previous major release.
• Edge: The latest release along with the previous major release.
• Firefox: The latest version along with the previous major release.
• Internet Explorer: Version 11 and higher.
• Safari: The latest release along with the previous major release.

Mobile Versions

• Stock browser on Android 4.1 and higher
• Safari on iOS 8 and higher

The JavaScript SDK

This sample app already has the Oracle Digital Assistant Client SDK for JavaScript included in the project. This SDK is compiled for the localhost environment only. To use the SDK in another location, download it and follow the instructions in the README file.

Generate the App ID

1. In your Oracle Digital Assistant instance, chooseDevelopment then Channels from the menu.
2. Choose Users.
3. Click Add Channel and then complete the dialog, choosing Web as the channel type. After you complete this dialog, Oracle Digital Assistant will generate the App Id that you need to initialize the SDK. Keep it close at hand.
4. Switch Channel Enabled to ON.
5. Route the channel to your skill or Digital Assistant.

Installation and Runtime Setup

1. Navigate to the chat-sample-web directory.
2. Run npm install.
3. Run node server.js.
4. In your browser, open http://bots.austinhub.se:3000.
5. Enter the App ID that was generated by Oracle Digital Assistant in the field on the home page. (This embeds the APP ID in the sample app.) The chat window will be initialized and loaded.
