A Go language framework to develop bots for messengers.

Developed & shared by Sneat-co & Strongo teams with usage of dalgo library.

Reasons to use:

• Same code can work across different messenger (Telegram, Facebook Messenger, Viber, Skype, Line, Kik, WeChat, etc.)
• You can tune your code to a specific messenger's UX.
• i18n & l10n support (multilingual)
• Can be hosted in cloud or just as a standard Go HTTP server. Supports AppEngine standard environment.
• It's fast

- help with code coverage needed.

func InitBot(httpRouter HttpRouter, botHost bots.BotHost, appContext common.DebtsTrackerAppContext) {

	driver := bots.NewBotDriver( // Orchestrate requests to appropriate handlers
		bots.AnalyticsSettings{GaTrackingID: common.GA_TRACKING_ID}, // TODO: Refactor to list of analytics providers
		appContext,                                       // Holds User entity kind name, translator, etc.
		botHost,                                          // Defines how to create context.Context, HttpClient, DB, etc...
		"Please report any issues to @DebtsTrackerGroup", // Is it wrong place? Router has similar.
	)

	driver.RegisterWebhookHandlers(httpRouter, "/bot",
		telegram.NewTelegramWebhookHandler(
			telegramBotsWithRouter, // Maps of bots by code, language, token, etc...
			newTranslator, // Creates translator that gets a context.Context (for logging purpose)
		),
		viber.NewViberWebhookHandler(
			viber.Bots,
			newTranslator,
		),
		fbm.NewFbmWebhookHandler(
			fbm.Bots,
			newTranslator,
		),
	)
}

The best way to learn is to see examples of usage. Here is few:

• ⚫⚪ Reversi game - open source game. ( Telegram: @ReversiGameBot)
• ✖️⭕ Bidding Tic-Tac-Toe - open source game. ( Telegram: @BiddingTicTacToeBot)
• 📃✂️ Rock-Paper-Scissors - open source game. ( Telegram: @playRockPaperScissorsBot)
• 💸📝 Debtus.app — a bot & a reminder service that helps to track your debts & credits. Sends automated reminders to you & your debtors (in messenger, email, SMS).

We would be happy to place a link to your example / bot that is implemented using this framework.

You can use any Bot API library by implementing couple of simple interface but the framework comes with few buildins:

• bots-go-framework/bots-api-telegram - Go library for * Telegram* Bot API
• bots-go-framework/bots-api-fbm - Go library for Facebook Messenger Bot API
• bots-go-framework/bots-api-viber - Go library for **Viber ** Bot API

• dal-go/dalgo - Database abstraction layer (DAL) in Go language
• strongo/gamp - Golang buffered client for Google Analytics (GA) Measurement Protocol

We are building a cross-table of features supported by different bot APIs.

Thanks to dalgo library the framework can work with different databases. The Db structure is described in README-DB.md.
