.can anyone solve this for me if possible …can a python string that is colored be printed in rasa,i tried but it only prints in the cusom action terminal
Hi, I’m not sure I understand what you’re trying to achieve. Have you tried using the print_color method in cli.py?
@fkoerner…I used termcolor library and it works fine In custom action terminal as u can see the picture the word Note:- came out in red color but in rasa shell it says none (dont do it at home)…the ways I thought it was suppose to came out was "Note:-dont do it at home " where the word “Note:-” in red as a warning that I want to display…but in rasa shell it jumps it and make the display as "none dont do it at home "…did u get me ?
Hi @faiza_conte not sure what you are trying to achieve, but perhaps you could use logs instead of print. like
import logging
logging.error('Your string')
Since I did logging.error the output will be red
@jusce17 the “print” part works fine but the problem is when i try to display it in rasa shell
yes, if you use logging, it should display the info in rasa shell in red as you want
@jusce17 still the same ,nothing changed at all
If it is just to print with different colors, perhaps you can use termcolor
from termcolor import colored
class ActionPrintColor(Action):
def name(self) -> Text:
return "action_print_color"
def run(self, dispatcher, tracker, domain):
print(colored("EXAMPLE EXAMPLE", "green"))
return []
Oh, I see. You can’t print colours with dispatcher.utter_message, and your formatting is being lost when you convert the message to a string.
This is a syntax issue. next() returns the value of the entity (in this case the integer duration value), and not a dictionary, so you can’t subscript it (appending ["entities"], for example will not work). You can remove next() to get more values.
@fkoerner here is the rasa shell nlu value for entity duration …and from the picture I wanted to get the normalised value
You can get the entities from the latest message like so: tracker.latest_message["entities"]
yes @fkoerner…i would get the entity but for duration there is 3 values that duckling extracted if you see in the nlu shell…with "tracker.get_slot(“duration”) i will get the first value …but i want to extract the normalized value …please if you see the picture you will see the normalized word
tracker.latest_message["entities"] returns a list of entities. I think this snippet should work for you:
[entity["additional_info"]["normalized"]["value"] for entity in tracker.latest_message["entities"] if entity.get(ENTITY_ATTRIBUTE_TYPE) == "duration"]
@fkoerner so with is
duration_normalized_val= [entity["additional_info"]["normalized"]["value"] for entity in tracker.latest_message["entities"] if entity.get(ENTITY_ATTRIBUTE_TYPE) == "duration"]
would give me the normalized value which is in second?
duration_normalized_val = \
[entity["additional_info"]["normalized"]["value"]
for entity in tracker.latest_message["entities"]
if (entity.get(ENTITY_ATTRIBUTE_TYPE) == "duration" and
entity.get("extractor") == "DucklingEntityExtractor")]
maybe add the last condition for good measure. The above code worked for me.
Note that it will give you a list of values (in case there is more than one duration entity in the message).
thanks @fkoerner i have another issue…am getting an output twice and i dont know what i did wrong can you see it for me please
@fkoerner with small letter “amoxa” works fine but for capital “Amoxa” the output becomes twice
print(entities)
for e in entities:
if e['entity'] == 'drug':
drug_name = e['value']
if drug_name == "amoxa" or drug_name == "Amoxa":
dispatcher.utter_message(template="utter_amoxa_desc")
elif drug_name == "tablet":
dispatcher.utter_message(template="utter_tablet_desc")
else:
dispatcher.utter_message(template="utter_notfound") ```
