IBM BlueMix/Watson Tone Analysis Microservice

About

This application is a simple microservice that will accept a text string and pass it on to IBM Watson's tone analysis service. To use this application you will need to have IBM Bluemix and a Watson Tone Analysis Service setup and enabled.

You will need to have the enviornment variables set with the credentials you get from the IBM Watson Bluemix interface.

We have included a Dockerfile and a requirements.txt file to create a base container that serves up this microservice.

Requirements

  • Docker
  • Python
  • Flask
  • pip

How to create a Tone Analysis service using Watson on IBM Bluemix.

Walkthrough of this package and using Docker to run it

Redis Sidecar

If you set the environment variable "SIDECAR" to be the hostname of a Redis sidecar container on default port the tone service will perform a sha256 hash of all input messages and store the resulting value to Redis. Any subsequent calls for that key will return the cached value instead of a new call to Bluemix.
