How to test locally

There are a few URLs that you can use to test the chatbot locally depending on the worker.

Proxy

Caddy Server can be used to proxy the chatbot requests to the correct worker.

One you have started the script from the frontend repository, access Caddy at: https://localhost:9000 this will then direct to either;

• http://localhost:9100 for the frontend worker
• http://localhost:9200 for the backend worker

Frontend

The frontend worker is managed in a separate repository and is responsible for rendering the chatbot UI using Astro.

The source code for the frontend worker can be found in the chatbot-frontend repository.

Access to the Frontend Worker is via Caddy at: https://localhost:9000 -> http://localhost:9100

The frontend worker embeds the UI Widget worker on the main page behind a button or offers a fullscreen page at /fullscreen.

Backend

The backend worker is managed in this repository.

Once you have the chatbot backend running, access to the Worker is via Caddy at: https://localhost:9000/ai -> http://localhost:9200

CLI

Once up-and-running, to test from the CLI run;

curl \
    --insecure \
    --request POST \
    --header "Origin: https://localhost:9000" \
    --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
    --header "Authorization: Bearer ${AI_SECRET}" \
    --data '{"message": "Hello, world!"}' \
    https://localhost:9000/ai/v1/chatbot
