Types

type BotAnswer

type BotAnswer struct {
	Text      string  `json:"text"`
	Pattern   *int    `json:"pattern,omitempty"` // can be null
	Mood      float64 `json:"mood"`
	Affection float64 `json:"affection"`
}

BotAnswer is the answer returned by the bot instance

type BotPool

type BotPool struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

BotPool manages a pool of running instances of the bot python script. In order to generate the bot answers faster for multiple users, any incoming request is forwarded to a free bot instance. For every incoming request a task is generated and executed by the next free instance. The Number of bot instances can be resized to allow dynamic load balancing.

func NewBotPool

func NewBotPool(size int) *BotPool

NewBotPool creates a new pool with a given amount of bot instances The task buffer size is 128. This means the pool can have up to 128 tasks in the que.

func (*BotPool) Close

func (p *BotPool) Close()

Close kills all running bot instances

func (*BotPool) HandleRequest

func (p *BotPool) HandleRequest(data MessageData) BotAnswer

HandleRequest takes incoming requests and makes the task work off by the next free bot instance. The function always returns a answer with text. If an error occures errorBotAnswer(...) is returned.

func (*BotPool) Resize

func (p *BotPool) Resize(n int)

Resize changes the count of bot instances The size can be any positiv number including zero. Decreasing the size can take a while, because only bot instances that are not currently working can be destroyed.

func (p *BotPool) Wait()

Wait locks thread until all bots are done
