Modules

Modules are a powerful way to extend the default functionalities of Botpress. They are very useful to encapsulate functionalities so you can reuse them elsewhere. Botpress comes with its own Modules (NLU, Channel-Web, Channel-Messenger, QNA to name a few) but you can also create your custom modules for your own needs.

Features

  • Add new actions, content types, hooks and skills that extends Botpress
  • Add a Module View specific to your new functionalities

Example of Module Views for Analytics, NLU and QNA:

Sidebar Modules

Enabling or disabling modules

Modules are already bundled with the server binary for the moment. They are bundled in zip files in the folder modules. It is possible to enable or disable them by opening the file data/global/botpress.config.json in a text editor and setting the value to true or false

"modules": [
  ...
  {
    "location": "MODULES_ROOT/<module_name>",
    "enabled": true
  }
]
