Rasa X - Rasa - Demo bot setup?

[Deprecated] Rasa X Community Edition
1

Version: dev-CC

Greetings Rasa community!

It has been a while since I have been digging into Rasa. It looks like not keeping up has got me lost, I am currently going through the master class videos, but I have a question.

Previously I was able to install Rasa X CE, move over sarabot demo files and I could boot up Rasa X to run it and chat with Sara.

So I am going to ask bad questions probably so I can understand. Previously I would install with pip and I was able to run a virtual environment and it installed Rasa and Rasa X. When I install the new docker install, does that also install Rasa? I see that I can connect a github to Rasa X, can I connect sarabot as the git? I am probably going to answer all these questions in the next few hours as I work through it, but I hope that maybe someone can give me some insight so I don’t need to go down too many dead ends

Thanks you guys are awesome

Cheers

Hi @FelixKing! All great questions.

When I install the new docker install, does that also install Rasa?

Yes, the Docker Compose setup deploys your assistant built with Rasa Open Source as well as Rasa X. You can learn more about how to deploy an assistant here.

I see that I can connect a github to Rasa X, can I connect sarabot as the git?

Yes. Sara is open source and located here. You can load her into Rasa X using Integrated Version Control

Thanks for your reply!

I was able to get the Rasa X demo working with Git, but not Sara bot, it would never train the model.

I just jumped on another thread with a new question too, need some help accessing rest api with Rasa x curl install.

@FelixKing Sara uses the response selector, an experimental feature in Rasa Open Source, that prevents you from being able to use train button in Rasa X. You will need to train a model locally and then upload it or train and upload it as part of CI/CD pipeline (e.g. like this GitHub action)

If you point me to the other thread, I can try to also answer that question as well :slight_smile:
