Hello, welcome to a video tutorial about bot framework
0:05
This tutorial I'm going to talk about the bot framework. This is a new technology introduced by Microsoft
0:12
So let's skip to the next topic. Okay, so this is a software evaluation
0:20
When we started with a desktop application, then web has introducing, then mobile platform is a huge one
0:27
Now this is a new technology, introducing. new technology introduced by Microsoft that messaging platform
0:37
So messaging platform means how we are chatting with SMS or WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger or Skype Messenger
0:45
how we are interact to the other human. The same way we can interact with the system
0:53
So that is a messaging platform. So bot is a messaging platform interact with the user via conventional user interface
1:05
This is called a CUI. This is a conventional user interface. Actually what will what will do
1:15
Bot essentially takes input from the user. You can request to the you can start the conversation to the bot
1:23
Once the conversation started then bot. take your input and process it based on your request whether it's a command or any
1:32
processing request whatever it is it's process and it will response to the user
1:39
that interaction user user can interact with the bot maybe like text message like
1:50
normal SMS or graph is called how you are a messenger we are sending a
1:56
some graphical conversation and two other users the same way you can interact with the bot also and bot support speech also
2:07
so internally what bot internally bot is a web service yeah that conversational interface has implemented that interwebs
2:17
service and to the user This one is building a bot
2:29
First what? We have to plan. What is a plan? So generally, interact with the user, we can start any conversation. Yeah
2:41
But in bot, it's a separate way. Bot can chat with the user only for specific requirement
2:48
Based on the bot, you can interact with the user. Sorry, you can interact with the bot
2:53
So let's say, for example, if you are ordering a... you are ordering a you know popular example pizza if you're if you're adding the
3:01
pizza you can create the bot for handling the pizza request taking the order and
3:09
you know delivery time everything you can build over their plan like that for example hotel booking or normal form request everything you can plant you can plan on bot
3:25
Once plan has done what you what your bot going to do that plan has to clearly do that
3:32
Then you can switch you to the build decision that mean development area
3:36
Generally bot can support C-shop language and node. node.js file that web we can create the bolt sorry we can create the bot framework
3:53
this video tutorial I'm going to talk about only the C shop language you can choose
4:00
your languages here then move to once the development has done you can move to
4:04
the test space so this test space is completely local test space like you can use a
4:11
bot emulator you can test that one once everything done from this space up to here then you can publish your bot to Azure once
4:22
publish has done then switch it to the connect how you interact with the bot whether
4:28
you want to interact via Skype or messenger whatever it is you can you can specify
4:36
the connect area then once connection is done evaluate this is a final
4:41
phase you can you can more you can add more enhancement or performance you can evaluate here this space so mainly we are focusing on this
4:51
first first some of the video series we are mainly focused on up to this test
4:58
area this three area then finally we move to the publish and connect then at
5:05
last we move to the evaluate area so these are the plan this video tutorial we are
5:09
going to learn about the bot framework next time so turning to the insulation process so which ID we are going to use
5:22
development in moment this tutorial I'm going to use a visual study 2017 and the
5:29
install IS express also needed because as I told boss is a web service what is a web service
5:35
so we need host that web service through IAS so I is record so next one second
5:45
go back to visual should a installation so here you can yeah now it's visible so here you
5:54
can go to that individual components default it won't be selected you have to select it
5:59
here you can select this area IS Express so once select insulation
6:05
so next we need the bot template bot template not default come with Visual Studio 2017
6:15
So this we have to download from internet and what Eliminator and configuration we have to do
6:23
So next slide we will go and check that template area one second go back the slide so this
6:37
is a bot template this is a link you can go and download it that bot for a
6:41
bot template I'm using the version 4 so 3 and 4 is available whatever it is
6:49
you can use it but this video tutorial I'm going to use the version 4 and bot
6:54
emulator, emulator is available in GitHub, you can go and download it emulator and
7:02
the configuration is the NG Rock is needed because NG Rock used to you know your
7:09
system act as a web server so that is really required to execute our bot
7:16
application so this also you go and download it from this website then
7:24
I move to the next one demo yeah this section I just make one small template small project
7:30
to create the bot framework I'm going back to Visual Studio yeah this is studio
7:40
next once again sorry file project project
7:54
so template insulated I already installed bot from bot template so I just type bot here so bot application
8:08
so I just make you know name of the project demo one bot demo sorry bot demo
8:20
demo let it project create meantime you can open the emulator so project is getting created so it's created I just close it
8:54
want to know the explanation not record now and go back the solution solution
9:02
explore hey come on yeah so this is a default template created by bot template so
9:23
actually what this bot is doing once we send that message it will return to
9:30
that number of character he's or has sent so I just rebuild the solution then
9:35
meantime go back to the emulator come on this is the latest bot emulator framework sorry emulator here you can go and see that file
9:50
sorry view emulator settings here make sure that NGrock installed under this option has selected
9:58
default it don't default it selected all but if you have just make the confirmation whether this is selected or not
10:09
So it's well done. I run this application. You see here, so it's running that web series
10:21
browser only, web browser only. I install only that Microsoft Edge. So it's default showing the Microsoft Edge. Yeah
10:33
So bot is running here. So this is our local host. So just copy this link, go to emulator, go to emulator and create the new bot
10:50
So here you need to specify the bot. What is a bot
10:55
Bot name. So I'll make demo one, bot demo one. You are a link and API, yeah. One more also you have to specify this
11:08
also you have to specify this is a link API host name your bot host name and this is our
11:12
bot host name and this also should be needed so that you have to specify here now
11:25
this app ID password is not required and encrypt your keys also not now not
11:30
record just save and connect asking you know say the bot so bot demo phone
11:38
saved yeah our bot is ready now this area user can chat so that previous one
11:50
which is running that Microsoft age that is our boss or bot server here the user
11:56
can interact like via Skype or Messenger but in this demo we are using like
12:02
emulator so this is our chatting area to the bot so if I send message
12:08
Hello. Then bot read this message and process it how many characters he has sent
12:15
As you see here, I send hello, this is a 5 character. So what response to this chat, you send hello which has a 5 character
12:23
So here if I click the hello, here you can see that this is a complete JSON format chart
12:35
connection we'll learn more about in upcoming video tutorial I hope you can
12:42
understand what is bot and how to run that default bot how to interact with the
12:49
bot emulator I hope you can understand next tutorial we'll learn more about
12:54
