cleverbotfreeapi

cleverbotfreeapi is a Rust client library for interacting with a washed down version of the Cleverbot API for free. This crate provides easy-to-use interfaces for sending messages to Cleverbot and receiving responses. Suitable for async builds like web servers or bots.

Features

• Get cleverbot responses.
• Maintain conversation history.
• Retry failed requests automatically (configurable).

Usage

Here is a basic example of using cleverbotfreeapi to send a message to Cleverbot and receive a response:

use cleverbotfreeapi::{CleverbotBuilder, Error};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Error> {
    let cleverbot = CleverbotBuilder::default().build().await?;
    let response = cleverbot.get_response("are you a bot").await?;
    println!("response: {}", response);  // would respond with something like "no, I'm human"
    Ok(())
}

For more detailed examples, see the examples directory in the repository.

Potential future features

• Sessions, to automatically manage different conversations happening in different "places". Not sure if this is a good idea, as some people might be happy with im-memory sessions, some might want to use a db, etc.
• Tests
