Specifying path to domain file in Rasa X

Rasa Open Source
1

Rasa supports --data for nlu and stories data, but it doesn’t seem to support -d domain.yml.

How can I point rasa x at a non-default domain.yml?

2

What command are you running with Rasa X? --domain works for rasa commands, for e.g. training

3

I am running:

rasa x --data data/scenario --domain data/scenario/domain.yml

The error I see is:

rasa: error: unrecognized arguments: -d data/scenario/domain.yml

Rasa v1.3.7

BTW, the documentation for Rasa X does not show that the domain argument is valid.

You can’t pass the domain.yml to Rasa X via the command line. I did a blog post on this subject.

For the domain data, you can either:

  • Cut and paste it in the Rasa X UI
  • Import it with the API or the rasacli command line tool

Thanks Greg. Is it this url (Rasa X Data Import - Greg Stephens)… looks like you posted a local IP.

Do you know why it can’t get it from a different location like rasa train does?

Finally, what was your motivation for creating the CLI toolset? I’m not deep enough in this to know what problems it solves.

Thanks. I corrected the link above. It should be Rasa X Data Import - Greg Stephens

@mmm3bbb what do you mean with “what’s the motivation for creating the CLI toolset”? It gives you much shorter commands for training/running the bot

@akelad I was asking @stephens why he created https://www.npmjs.com/package/rasacli - a CLI tookit for managing Rasa X data… not why there’s a Rasa CLI. :slight_smile:

@mmm3bbb My motivation is to automate deployment and updating of the bot. In particular with CI/CD tools like Jenkins or Travis.

I have a blog posts on Rasa CI/CD and data import options summarizing deployment options that discuss this in more detail.

Perfect. Thanks.
