This repository contains a demo of how to use webhooks with Typetalk.
If a Typetalk user posts a non-English message, this Bot will attempt to translate it. If successful, the bot will then post a reply with the English translation.
Refer to the following Google documentation for instructions on how to retrieve your own API key: https://support.google.com/cloud/answer/6158862
Save it - you'll need it later!
Clone this repository on a publicly accessible server.
# via SSH:
$ git clone git@github.com:nulab/typetalk-google-translate-bot.git
# via HTTPS:
$ git clone https://github.com/nulab/typetalk-google-translate-bot.git
Fetch the package dependencies, set the Google API key you created earlier, then run the application.
$ go get all
$ export $GOOGLE_API_KEY=????????????????
$ go run app.go
Create a Typetalk bot in the Topic for which messages should be translated to English.
For more details, refer to our Typetalk webhook documentation: https://developer.nulab-inc.com/docs/typetalk/#webhook
The Webhook URL should be your host name, and the port is 12345.
e.g: https://example.com:12345/
If you'd like to use this demo app in a real environment, we strongly recommend that you configure a reverse proxy to use a different port. (We also recommend setting up HTTPS!)
Post a non-English message, such as "こんにちは". If everything went well, the bot should reply with the message, "Hello"!
