JS Freakin’ Everywhere A Chatbot Powered by AWS+NodeJS
Me, a year ago. Ecstatic Art Driftwood Flea Market Buddhist
Retreat 100% NO JS
Along came a startup founder... We made a bot! It
helps people! Help us build it!
Who sat down beside me... And it has a punny
name!!
And enticed Miss Pammy to code And we’re building it
all in something called “NodeJS”!
And we’re off to the races! From 0 to Scalable
in 5 weeks. AWS Lambda AWS DynamodB AWS Beanstalk
None
Why Lambda?
SysOpsJS AWS Lambda Log Processor Cloudwatch BigQuery AWS Lambda Cloudwatch
SlackBot Cloudwatch Slack deploy.sh Upload Notify Checks
BUT WHAT ABOUT NLP?? 99% buttons
We still have NLP tho...
NLP in JavaScript..ish! Python Classifier Training JavaScript Online Classifier svm
intercepts svm weights tfidf scores mood matches
That takes time! Fine, we need to take time! How
are you feeling? I’m excited about tonight Oh, that’s great to hear! • • • NLP! 500ms Twiddle thumbs
Our “CMS” We need a way to collaboratively write content
for Woebot! And we want to A/B content! And we want to write variants! And lesson queueing! And conditional content based on variables! Also, we need it tomorrow!
Google Spreadsheets to the rescue!
Spreadsheets + JS = So Happy Together! Google Apps Script
Linter Google Apps Script JSON Exporter Google Apps Script Github Client New commit: content.json
Duh, we have a website Beanstalk
COMING SOON! Mobile…. AND HIPAA! Hip-hip-hooray!
What’s great about JS on AWS? Scalable! Fast to develop!
Rich ecosystem! Easy to use across the FULL stack! Not so great tho? Lack of NLP libs! Slow computation! Less encryption libs!
