Coming back to RASA after 4 years

Hi everyone,

It’s been 4+ years since last time I developed chatbots using RASA.

I want to understand if I can develop same thing right now with or without having to use API (developer key) or at least leverage RASA NLU for intent classification?

Thanks, Regards, Rajesh Kumar

Hi @rajas.black, thank you for your question and welcome back! Of course, you can still use Rasa Open Source to develop NLU chatbots. Let us know if you have any questions.

Best, Marina

Are there any plans to make it compatible with latest versions of python?

You can get intent classification like this: tinker-casting/scripts/rasa_wrapper/rasa_wrapper.py at main · micseydel/tinker-casting · GitHub namely agent.parse_message(text)

Regarding making it compatible with later Python versions, I’ve been meaning to look into the state of the FOSS project, since I use it every day and not being able to deploy it in the future might be bad, but if you’re interested in working on it together feel free to let me know. For now I just keep Rasa in its own venv.

I suspect the maintainers might already be planning or engaged in upgradation.
