Watson has an API. I signed up for 30 days trial. The hardest part was actually getting the account working. A rule of thumb is that if you haven’t seen a feature in the Web interface yet, it will not work in the cl tools. So first setup your company and region to avoid errors and click a little bit in the Web UI.
Then follow this guide:
Developer Cloud Documentation | Watson Developer Cloud
The documentation is quite easy to read and understand. At some point you create a speech-to-text service through the command line. Head back to Web interface, find the newly created service and obtain the credentials. Done.
Setting up a telegram bot is super easy and straight forward. First, add the BotFather to your contacts. use the /newbot command and follow through the instructions. Write down your API token. Done.
npm install- Setup your Watson and Telegram API tokens (see above)
node server.js- Fire up Telegram, add your chatbot and send over a audio file
- Fork it!
- Create your feature branch:
git checkout -b my-new-feature - Commit your changes:
git commit -am 'Add some feature' - Push to the branch:
git push origin my-new-feature - Submit a pull request :D
