luthor-for-lex 0.0.12

Easy Lex bot manager

Luthor for Amazon Lex - Multi-Bot Manager and Player

Overview

Typically, the goal of a Lex conversation is to fulfill a single set of intents, however, there are use cases where a conversation may need to temporarily change topics.

For example, in the case of someone with special needs, a person may be in the middle of a Lex conversation ordering their lunch through the LunchBot, and then suddenly ask a completely irrelevant question which maybe handled by the CommonQuestionBot. Luthor for Lex can switch contexts to the question bot, and then naturally transition back to the original bot. This provides a "stream of consciousness" flow to the conversation.

Luthor for Lex allows you to run multiple simultaneous bots, switching contexts and managing the transition between bots cleanly and naturally.

Features

• Create/update bots, slots and intents using YAML (transparently handles checksums)
• Run multiple bots at the same time within a single conversation
• Event hook model for each bot provides several points of customization
