Rhizome is a conversational bot engine created by Botanic/SEED team that uses .Bot specification to define a conversational bot and runs .Flow intermediate language to determine the flow of the conversation.
Part of the SEED token project. This is a sneak preview - there is more to come. See the Wiki for more information.
- Support .Bot v1.1 (see https://github.com/SeedVault/bot)
- Support .Flow v1.0
- Support .Flow v2.0 with basic functionality (see https://github.com/SeedVault/flow)
- Template engine support for text output compatible with Templetor.
- Add support for .Flow v2.0 full specification.
- Add .Flow instructions to support AIML and ChatScript compiler.
- Add extensions to support all .Flow v2.0 instructions, functions, filters and operators.
- Add channels Skype, Slack, Facebook, Signal, Kik and Twitter.
- Add commands for bot developer and channels to control bot flow and session.
These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.
- Python 3.7+ and pipenv
- Docker
pipenv shell
./build.sh
cd docker && docker exec -it docker_mongo_1 bash /seed/seedmongo.sh rhizomedb && cd ..
Note: If you have issues with pipenv install try this:
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install git+https://github.com/pypa/pipenv.git
Note: If you have issues with pip install try this:
python3 -m pip install pipenv
BBOT_ENV=development python -m channels.console.app <userId> <botIdOrName> <orgId> debug|nodebug
userId: Any alphanumeric ID to identify yourself.
botIdOrName: The bot ID or bot name you want to run. You can find this in dotbot collection in mongo database
orgId: Organization ID (not supported yet).
debug|nodebug: debug will show the raw json object returned by the bot engine. nodebug will just show text.
Try the included demo bot with:
BBOT_ENV=development python -m channels.console.app joe testbot 1 debug
BBOT_ENV=development gunicorn "channels.restful.app:create_app()" -b localhost:5000 --reload
Open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost:5000/TestWebChatBot
Run this first to set Telegram web-hooks of all bots with Telegram channel enabled in its .Bot configuration.
BBOT_ENV=development python -m channels.telegram.webhooks_check
This runs the Telegram web-hook server on port 5001. Be sure to configure a reverse-proxy server to listen to the Telegram web-hooks properly.
BBOT_ENV=development gunicorn "channels.telegram.app:create_app()" -b localhost:5001 --reload
This is a RESTful server used to access .Bot and .Flow databases by Greenhouse and Dandelion.
BBOT_ENV=development gunicorn "dot_repository.api:app" -b localhost:8000 --reload

SEED democratizes AI by offering an open and independent alternative to the monopolies of a few large corporations that currently control conversational user interfaces (CUIs) and AI technologies. SEED's licensed, monetized open-source platform for bots on blockchain supports collaboration and creative compensation that will exceed the proprietary deployments from industry giants. We are also giving users back control of their personal data. Find out more about the SEED Token project at seedtoken.io. See the Connect section at the end for contact info.
