If I change to python3 syntax input() ,
I get this error:

TypeError: the JSON object must be str, not 'bytes'

File "tt.py", line 40, in main
apiai.UserEntityEntry('Firefox', ['Firefox']),
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'UserEntityEntry'

In the example

def main():
ai = apiai.ApiAI(CLIENT_ACCESS_TOKEN,'')

 # some unuque session id for user identification
 session_id = uuid.uuid4().hex

 entries = [
     apiai.UserEntityEntry('Firefox', ['Firefox']),
     apiai.UserEntityEntry('XCode', ['XCode']),
     apiai.UserEntityEntry('Sublime Text', ['Sublime Text'])
 ]

Shall I open a PR?

When I use the json.loads(request.getresponse().read()) function an error pops up " TypeError: the JSON object must be str, not 'bytes' ".
The response.read() function works well and I get a JSON object printed out with the correct intent and action however json.loads isnt working.
I am using this as a part of a Django application.
Is there any other way to access the attributes of the response?

Thanks ,
Gautam.

Code snippet:

    ai = apiai.ApiAI(client_base)
request = ai.text_request()
request.session_id = "xxx...xxxx"
request.query = msg
response = json.loads(request.getresponse().read())
#print("now printing response")
result = response['result']
action = result.get('action')
print(action)

Browser Error Snippet:

I have installed apiai by :
$ apt-get install python-pyaudio python-numpy
$ pip install apiai

When I run "send_text_example.py", I get the following error :

ai = apiai.ApiAI(CLIENT_ACCESS_TOKEN)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'ApiAI'

If I clone the repo to my local, I can run it successfully.

As the voice request is deprecated, how should we send voice from now on?

I would like to take a stab at replacing the numpy references in code with the corresponding pure python equivalent so that the code is pure python and has a smaller installation footprint. Would this be something of interest?

How can i add a source from the request like facebook,for example when someone write a message from facebook messeger the webhook recieves a parameter called originalRequest{ source: "facebook", data: {objects} }, how can i added, i need it for handle a specific client

{ "id": "be29b06a-84dc-4e86-99dc-20a0ad49a2e9", "timestamp": "2016-04-21T01:10:16.984Z", "result": { "source": "agent", "resolvedQuery": "hello", "contexts": [], "metadata": {}, "fulfillment": { "speech": "" }, "score": 0 }, "status": { "code": 200, "errorType": "success" } }

This is my code:

import sys
from VAD import VAD

vad = VAD()
f = open('worker_2.pcm')
fr = f.read()
result = vad.processFrame(fr)
print(result)

invoke like this?
But it met error.

frame = np.array(frame_input).astype(np.float32) ValueError: could not convert string to float:

Can you give a demo show how to use?

thanks!

Hi,

The example does not show how to add a parameter to the event request.

Hello,

I am trying to access set some User Entities for my session using the python-client. Then use ai.api insert the Value of the User Entity in the text response.

I have successfully ran the user entity sample code send_user_entities_example.py.

However I am unsure of how to simply access the submitted entity value from api.ai to insert it into my text response.

All documentation I have found regarding the use of ai.api UserEntites has been quite vague. Code comments refer to https://api.ai/docs/reference/agent/userentities which states:

A good scenario could be when you have a playlist entity that has generic playlist. As playlists are user-specific, playlist entity could be defined in a request or for a given session.

This is the only source of information I could find online about UserEntites, it does not explain how to access user entity values from the api.ai platform agent.

Further instruction/documentation about "how to access the user entity values submitted by send_user_entities_example.py on the api.ai platform agent" would be greatly appreciated.

While looking through the examples I noticed that both the send_file_example and the send_text_example contain an access token, instead of the 'YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN' string. Is this intended or a mistake?

It seems that this Python SDK only supports the 'query' and 'userEntity' parts of the API, what about the rest ? Is it possible to add new entities or intents ?

Thanks!

Hi there,

There is a weird response behavior that i could't understand, when i try to send a query that matches one of my custom intents, i get the following error

Note that:

• I get the json response if the query is assigned to one of the predefined domains (eg: Smalltalk)
• I'm sending the request from within an HTTP method

Any ideas ?

You've done a great work.That's awesome, but can you make documentation more informative. Consider following:
1.)List of methods available
2.)Intuitive

I ran into this error when I tried to pip install the package using the command in the README.md
(this one: pip install https://github.com/api-ai/api-ai-python.git, I actually had to prepend git+ to the URL so maybe that should be added to the README as well).

Here's the exact error that I got:

$ pip install git+https://github.com/api-ai/api-ai-python.git
Collecting git+https://github.com/api-ai/api-ai-python.git
  Cloning https://github.com/api-ai/api-ai-python.git to /private/var/folders/8x/xnhc28b96zz1_k8_sdfdkjzr0000gn/T/pip-EW675N-build
    Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:

        with open('README.rst', 'r') as f:
    IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'README.rst'

I went ahead and cloned the repository and changed README.rst to README.md and ran python setup.py and the package installed properly.

As far as I can tell, this should be a really easy fix -- just switch out README.rst with READM.md. Please let me know if I'm missing anything though and if this isn't actually and issue with the package but an issue on my side.

I'm trying to convert a google.cloud.dialogflow_v2.types.QueryResult object to a simple python dictionary. I've got a fairly large custom payload coming through the webhook_payload attribute. Needless to say, when I simply call dict() on this object, I'm getting a lot of nested objects. I'm trying to avoid 1) writing a function to extract all the data from these nested objects, and 2) using the REST API.

Thanks for any help in advance.

response = session_client.detect_intent(session=session, query_input=query_input)
type(response.query_result.webhook_payload)
# google.cloud.dialogflow_v2.types.Struct

dict(response.query_result.webhook_payload)
# {u'hangouts': fields {
#   key: "cards"
#   value {
#     list_value {
#       values {
#         struct_value {
#           fields {
#             key: "header"
#             value {
#               struct_value {
#                 fields {

Hi there,

There is a weird response behavior that i could't understand, when i try to send a client access token that does not matches with any of my custom intents, i get the following error

I've had a look at the Python client, and I can't find a way of creating or updating entities. There's only code for user entities. Does the client support this, and is there an example that we can look at?

Thanks

I am getting the following error while trying to run the example for text input

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/vpr/mysite/flask_app.py", line 2, in
import apiai
ImportError: No module named 'apiai'

I think there is a mistake in the module, could it be checked?

As the old voice_request is marked deprecated, I'm using a text_request to send audio data as instructed here, using a wav file (Unsigned 8 bit, or Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 16000 Hz). However, this gives me the following result:

{
  "error": {

    "errorId": "ab6473fe-a57a-49ed-8a08-21a58570be78",
    "message": "json request parse error"
  }
}

What am I doing wrong?

Happens direct when i try to add the Token

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "send_user.py", line 66, in
main()
File "send_user.py", line 34, in main
ai = apiai.ApiAI(CLIENT_ACCESS_TOKEN)

In the python text examples

request = ai.text_request()
request.lang = 'de' # optional, default value equal 'en'
request.session_id = "<SESSION ID, UNIQUE FOR EACH USER>"
request.query = "Hello"
response = request.getresponse()

Is there any way to omit ssl verification for the text_request() and getresponse() methods.
As, I am using HTTPS, in the server side all the requests require ssl verification.

I need something like the request

requests.get('https://kennethreitz.com', verify=False)

So, text request and response going through api.ai will not check for any ssl certificate.

the README says docs are on api.ai but the link there just comes back to this page.
feedback loop!

Please import sys in the example.

I have been trying to load a json file containing question and answers into intent using python code .can any one help me in finding or having some code where i can directly execute the python code and the json file is loaded into intents creating question and answers automatically.

I saw examples here, But could not find how to create an agent, how to train it with my own data through program.

Please help.

Hello,

i use the example script to send a text request. However, i have a Api.ai Intent that includes a required value, so after the first request i got a question back from Api.ai to specify the value for that intent.

To answer the question, i have to make a new request by using the session_id of the first request. Otherwise the context is reseted: https://docs.api.ai/docs/query

On each request, the example script generates a new session_id.

I tried to specify the session_id on my own, such as:

ai = apiai.ApiAI(CLIENT_ACCESS_TOKEN, SUBSCRIPTION_KEY)
request = ai.text_request()
request.lang = lang
request.session_id = "c8819d00-9145-48af-8171-b0489448cded"
request.query = inputtext
response = request.getresponse()
api_resp = response.read()

But the additional parameter session_id is not used. I think the code in https://github.com/api-ai/api-ai-python/blob/master/apiai/apiai.py#L95 has to be modified.

Can somebody help me?
Thanks!

As api.ai is now dialogflow, I would like to change all references of api.ai to dialogflow in the code and make a major release since this would break the existing implementations. Let me know if I can start working on this.

Seems I cannot attach a new context.

apiai_req = ai.text_request()
apiai_req.lang = 'en'
print("attaching context " + str(session['contexts']))
apiai_req.contexts = session['contexts']
apiai_req.query = from_human_message

bot_response = json.loads(apiai_req.getresponse().read().decode('utf-8'))

apiai_req.contexts = session['contexts'] <<< this line is the problem. it cannot modify the context.

there's a method for reseting contexts, but what shoudl I do if I want to modify the contexts ?

The speech recognition seems to have been deprecated, hence it should also be marked so in the README.md file to avoid confusion.

Python 3.5

if you don't use:

.decode("utf-8") after you ask getresponse().read() ->

this you'll get:

  File "/usr/lib/python3.5/http/client.py", line 1187, in getresponse
    raise ResponseNotReady(self.__state)
http.client.ResponseNotReady: Idle

so it might be a good idea to update the sample code for the people not to dig into stackoverflow...etc.

The required format of the response expected from the webhook called for slot-filling is not clearly stated in the documentation as found here: https://docs.api.ai/docs/webhook#webhook-for-slot-filling

Hello,

Could you please help me understand, how I can create a new agent object though this lib and if it's even possible?

Thanks!

Regards,
Andrew.

I am getting the following error while trying to run the example for text input

File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/apiai/init.py", line 36, in
from .requests.query import Entry
ImportError: No module named requests.query

I think there is a mistake in the module, could it be checked?

This the error that i have:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/osmc/alfred/robot/stt/api.py", line 50, in callback

Pip list :
apiai (1.0.2)
requests (2.4.3)
urllib3 (1.9.1)

Thanking in advance for any help

the examples use next to a key also a session_id. they don't show how to retrieve it but apparently there is a session id when apiai is initialized.
anyway with i use the session id that returned by initialising the module but just get an "code":401,"errorType":"unauthorized
{"status":{"code":401,"errorType":"unauthorized","errorDetails":"You are not authorized for this operation. Invalid access token: \u003capiai.apiai.ApiAI object at 0x10067df90\u003e"}}

Getting the following error when connecting to API AI via proxy.
socket.error: Tunnel connection failed: 407 AuthorizedOnly

When I looked into request.py I could see HTTPConnection being used which only considers proxy server and port and not the username and password.

Do you plan to support requests module or another fix so that username and password can also be passed to authenticate against proxies.

Ideally should take username/password from environment with the pattern:
https://<username>:<password>@<proxy_server>:<port>

is there a way to set a timeout for the request?

I'm using the API from china where google services are intermittently blocked...

I couldn't see anything obvious here:
