Chris Rahmé joins the Rasa Hero group!

[Emma (Emma Wightman)]

Hello Rasa @community,

Christopher Rahmé has joined the Hero group, and we’re thrilled to introduce him as your new community moderator!

Journey to Rasa Hero

@ChrisRahme, a Software Engineer based in Lebanon currently studying his Master’s in Artificial Intelligence, has been a tremendous help on our forum. Since February this year, he has kindly committed an extraordinary amount of his time to answering technical and theoretical questions on conversational AI.

An avid forum member himself, and working together with @nik202, (we will share more about Nik’s journey soon ) he has been there for our community at every turn. Not only responding to issues, but also guiding members into the right direction for their questions to be answered more quickly. Sharing useful resources, welcoming new members, and helping us to keep the forum an organized space to facilitate meaningful discussion and feedback from everyone.

This, we believe, has had a great impact on our overall community growth, and we couldn’t be more grateful to Chris for his time and effort here!

Here are just a few great examples of Chris stepping in for our community!

How to Add Welcome message in RASA X?

Fontend means the interface the user will use to talk the the bot, like a web widget or a mobile application. You can’t start with a message from the bot in Rasa X; you will have to do that in your application. There are two ways: In that application, you will have a send() function for sure, to send the user message to the Rasa server when the user clicks on the “send” button. You will just need to call this function on startup, which means when the user opens the webpage or the mobile app…

Spacy linking deprecation error

Hello @Johan1us. I installed SpaCy 3 and en_core_web 3 as you did in your reply: pip install --upgrade spacy python -m spacy download en_core_web_md (In my case I downloaded the model via pip with the GitHub URL to be able to use the --default-timeout flag since my connection is really slow) But don’t use link. You just need to write language: en_core_web_md in your config.yml instead of language: en.

How to create a troubleshooting conversation

Hello. When the user says something like “my internet is bad”, I want the bot to start troubleshooting using a series of questions. Obviously, when the user tells the bot that it worked, the process should stop. If not, it will continue until the final question where the bot says “a case was created”. For the sake of simplicity, let’s say the chatbot asks “does it work now?” after every step, except some steps where I care about the given information (just to store them and send them later, t…

New to Raza

There are the courses Nik just sent, but also the outdated Masterclass and its handbook, and there’s a new series that just started called Conversational AI with Rasa. From least to most advanced: Masterclass Conversational AI with Rasa Rasa for Beginners Certification Workshop Advanced Custom Actions, Forms, & Responses Workshop Advanced Deployment Workshop

How to use multiple models and file nlu in Rasa?

Look at this. To create multiple NLU files, well… just create multiple NLU files. But what’s the reason for that if the projects are independent? Why merge them if they’re not the same? If you mean you want to use the same Rasa instance without using multiple virtual environments, you can still do that and switch from a folder to another in the terminal while staying in the same venv. Or maybe you’re looking for the MultiProjectImporter?

How to use slot_was_set properly

You should use custom actions: class ActionGreet(Action): def name(self): return 'action_greet' def run(self, dispatcher, tracker, domain): if tracker.get_slot('firstname'): firstname = tracker.get_slot('firstname') dispatcher.utter_message(f'Hello, {firstname}') else: dispatcher.utter_message(f'Hello') return []

Specify flags for Rasa X in Server Mode (Custom domain folder)

Since nobody replied and I couldn’t find an answer, I decided to go back to a single domain file meanwhile. But left the domain folder in the root of the project just in case, which means the folder was also uploaded on the GitHub repo which the server’s Rasa X pulls from. So, on the server, I went to Rasa X’s “Domain” tab, only to find out that it automatically detected all the domain files in the folder as well as the original one. So that’s solved As for the other part of t…
