A ChatBot framework to make customizable all purpose Chatbots using NLP, Tensorflow, Speech Recognition

Deployment Architecture:

Updates:

1. Released to pypi with stable release.

2. Will be updated to conda soon.

Basic Requirements:

• RAM > 4GB (For training the model)
• Storage Space > 200MB
• GPU RAM >=4 GB (optional)
• Python >= 3.5

Installation:

(a). Install using pip

(b). Clone the repository (dev testing)

(a) Install Using pip:

Pre-Requisites:

1. An Empty folder
2. A virtual environment (using normal python or conda python)

Setting up the Pre-Requisites:

1: Create an empty folder say Demo.

2: Open the folder and open terminal from that folder location.

3: Create Virtual Environment

• Step 1: Either Using virtualenv (strictly for non-conda users, optional for conda users)
• Step 2: Or Using conda (for conda users only)

Choose any one of the above 2 steps based on conda or non-conda users

1. Install virtualenv using pip (for both non-conda and conda users)

    pip install virtualenv==20.0.14

(1.a) Run the command to create virtual environment:

    virtualenv .

(1.b) Activate virtual environment by running the command:

    .\Scripts\activate

(1.c) (Demo) in the left of terminal indicates that the environment is activated

2. Create virtual environment (for conda users only), skip if Step 1 is done:

    conda create -n TChatBot

(2.a) Activate virtual environment by running the command:

    conda activate TChatBot

(2.b) (TChatBot) in the left of terminal shows that the environment is activated

Install the latest TChatBot package using pip:

    pip install TChatBot

Congrats, You installed all the required dependencies :)

Usage:

(Must run within the virtual environment):

Chat with TChatBot:

    tchatbot -chat

Train the Chatbot:

    tchatbot -train

Create Custom Dataset commandline

    tchatbot -create

Check Current classes trained

    tchatbot -classes

Check Model Pipeline Configurations

    tchatbot --config

Check Version:

    tchatbot -v

For any help/guidance regarding commands:

    tchatbot -h

Installation for developers

(Must run within the virtual environment):

(b): By Clonining this Repository ,following the steps:

1. Setup the Pre-Requisites as given above (without installing the TChatBot package)

2. Once done, clone the repository inside the Demo folder (with activated virtual environment)

a. Using HTTPS:

    git clone https://github.com/deepraj1729/TChatBot.git

b. Using SSH:

    git clone [email protected]:deepraj1729/TChatBot.git

3. Navigate to the TChatBot folder (Parent folder) command-line:

    cd TChatBot

4. Install the requirements from the activated environment:

    pip install -r requirements.txt 

Congrats, You installed all the required dependencies :)

Usage (for Developers or Contributors):

(inside the virtual environment)

a. Chat with TChatBot:

    python main.py -chat

b. Train the TChatbot:

    python main.py -train

c. Create Custom Dataset command-line for retraining the Bot

    python main.py -create

Check Current classes trained

    python main.py -classes

Check Model Pipeline Configurations

    python main.py --config

Check Version:

    python main.py -v

For any help regarding commands:

    python main.py -h
