.gbapp Reference
Introduction
.gbapp is the folder extension for the General Bots Application package type. Anything inside a folder considered a .gbapp will be consumed by the server like a TypeScript application. This conversational application will contain the source code for custom dialogs and behaviour for any .gbot that associate this deployed .gbapp.
A good way to start a .gbapp is to find a NPM package to create a .gbapp that
asks for data and output the result. For example, a temperature package can
be installed via npm install temperature
and then have its methods
convertToKelvin or convertToCelsius called when user asks for conversion. A
.gbapp can persist and read data from database according to the conversation
session.
Please read: Anti Patterns Catalog.

### Setup git
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
git config --global user.email "someone@domain.com"
### Commands to check version of Node.js and NPM.

#### Manual steps.
1. Install [Chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/install), a Windows Package Manager;
2. Install [git]( `https://git-scm.com/` ), a Software Configuration Management (SCM) and TortoiseGit;
3. Install [Node.js](https://npmjs.com/get-npm), a [Runtime system](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runtime_system);
4. Install Visual Studio Code Insiders, Brackets or Atom as an editor of your choice;
5. Fork the repository by visiting https://github.com/pragmatismo-io/BotServer/fork;
6. Clone the just forked repository by running `git clone your-forked-repository-url/BotServer.git` ;
7. Run the bot server by `gbot.cmd` .
#### Common Errors
- The subscription is not registered to use namespace 'Microsoft.Web'. See https://aka.ms/rps-not-found for how to register subscriptions.
-- Enter Azure | Subscription | Resource providers | Find Microsoft.Web and check it.

File compression
Compressing a directory in Linux:
tar -cvzf my_archive.tar.gz input_dir
Expanding an archive in Linux:
tar -xf my_archive.tar.gz
Removing Node.js on Linux
rm -rf /usr/local/bin/npm
rm -rf /usr/local/share/man/man1/node*
rm -rf /usr/local/lib/dtrace/node.d
rm -rf ~/.npm
rm -rf ~/.node-gyp
rm -rf /opt/local/bin/node
rm -rf opt/local/include/node
rm -rf /opt/local/lib/node_modules
rm -rf /usr/local/lib/node*

Specifications
Dialogs
The dialog is built by specifing series of methods, disposed as an array as seen on Figure 1. Each dialog has also an identifier that can be called by several engines like kb.gbapp, which handles cloud based search for documents and other knowledge base information and also routes for the natural language processing (NLP) engine.
static getDialogs(bot: BotAdapter, min: GBMinInstance) {
return [{name:"/convertTemperature", waterfall: [
async step => {
},
async step => {
},
async step => {
}]
},{name:"/convertCurrency", waterfall: [
async step => {
},
async step => {
},
async step => {
}]
}
]
*Figure 1 - How to build dialogs in General Bots using TypeScript*
Fork concept
Is the implementation of new software based on existing software. The branch takes advantage of the data already used in other software to generate a new one. This in some way contributes to a better understanding of how it works.
How To...
Clean up bot directly on database
@@id = 0 DELETE FROM GuaribasConversationMessage WHERE instanceId = @id DELETE FROM GuaribasConversation WHERE instanceId = @id DELETE FROM GuaribasUser WHERE instanceId = @id DELETE FROM GuaribasAnswer WHERE instanceId = @id DELETE FROM GuaribasQuestion WHERE instanceId = @id DELETE FROM GuaribasPackage WHERE instanceId = @id
Create a new keyword
- 10min. Find the package on npmjs.com;
- 2min. Perform keywords list update;
- (Optional) 10min. Create a new facade of keywords (Create service file, add reference to package/index.ts, and make a call);
- 20min. Keyword code call and infrastructure to support it.
Debugging .gbapp deployed on Azure
Commit code
See https://semver.org/.
The numbering rules are defined as the following syntax:
1.0.0 MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH (BREAK.FEATURE.BUG)
Details
- A fix in the code (0.0.1):
fix(azuredeployer.gbapp): stop graphite breaking when too much pressure applied Patch Fix Release
- A new feature (0.1.0):
feat(core.gbapp): add 'graphiteWidth' option
- A commit incrementing main version number (1.0.0):
BREAKING CHANGE: The graphiteWidth option has been removed.
- A commit without incrementing version number (version remains unchanged)
perf(core.gbapp): Improved loop.
Rules
- BREAK: If the body contains the text “BREAKING CHANGE” then MAJOR version is incremented.
- FEATURE: If the type contains feat/feature, then MINOR version is incremented.
- BUG If the type contains fix, then PATCH version is incremented.
Types
build: Changes that affect the build system or external dependencies (example scopes: gulp, broccoli, npm)
ci: Changes to our CI configuration files and scripts (examples: CircleCi, SauceLabs)
docs: Documentation only changes
feat: A new feature
fix: A bug fix
perf: A code change that improves performance
refactor: A code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature
test: Adding missing tests or correcting existing tests
