This is a Java implementation of a RiveScript interpreter, per the Working Draft at http://www.rivescript.com/wd/RiveScript.html
This is BETA QUALITY SOFTWARE and hasn't been field tested as much as some of the other RiveScript libraries in other languages.
It is feature complete syntax-wise: it supports all of the RiveScript directives and tags, but it doesn't natively support any dynamic language for object macros. You can define object macros in Java at compile-time, and there's an example that bridges Perl code; long-term plans include building in native support for JavaScript.
This repository is a little bit light on examples; most of the examples for how
to do things are found in the source of RSBot.java
and the RiveScript files
in the Aiden/
directory. These demonstrate things like Java object macros,
using the Perl macro bridge, etc.
If you find a way to crash this library, please tell me how you did it so I can improve this library!
Contributions are welcome. See CONTRIBUTING.md
for more information.
Documentation is available at https://www.rivescript.com/docs/java/
Also check out the RiveScript Community Wiki for common design patterns and tips & tricks for RiveScript.
To compile, test, build all jars and docs run:
./gradlew build
To install all jars into your local Maven cache run:
./gradlew install
The RSBot.java
is a simple implementation of a Java RiveScript bot. You
can use it to quickly chat with the Eliza-based bot in the Aiden/
folder.
These commands may be used at your input prompt in RSBot:
/quit - Quit the program
/dump topics - Dump the internal topic/trigger/reply struct (debugging)
/dump sorted - Dump the internal trigger sort buffers (debugging)
/last - Print the last trigger you matched.
To execute RSBot
to begin chatting with the demo Eliza-based bot that
tends to ship with RiveScript libraries run:
./gradlew :rivescript-samples-rsbot:runApp --console plain
This library is tested using JUnit. To execute the test suite run:
./gradlew clean test
