🤖 Boost, the open-source Messenger motivational bot 🔥
An open-source motivational bot for Messenger.
Since it is built on the Botpress platform, it is simple, lightweight (~250 lines of code) and portable.
Boost requires node (version >= 7.0) and uses npm as package manager.
Boost is powered by Botpress, an open-source bot platform.
You should get familiar with Botpress and the main modules this bot uses (botpress-messenger, botpress-broadcast, botpress-scheduler, botpress-subscriptions).
Install the bot:
npm install
Run it:
YOUTUBE_API_KEY=<YOUR API KEY> npm start
The bot should be running at http://localhost:3000
To develop and test locally, we suggest you setup ngrok in the botpress-messenger module.
You must re-run (npm start
) after every change to the bot code.
