Android SDK

DeepConverse provides an easy to use SDK for integrating the chatbot into your app. To setup the SDK follow the steps below.

Installation

Step 1. Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:

allprojects {
	repositories {
		...
		maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
	}
}

Step 2. Add the dependency

dependencies {
        implementation 'com.github.converselabs:android-sdk:1.0.6'
}

Setup

Here is a sample ViewController showing how you can include the SDK and load the bot on the click action of a button. You can also pass in metadata to the chatbot.

You will require DOMAIN and BOT_NAME which can be found from the dashboard.

package com.sample.webviewapp;

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.LinearLayout;

import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;

import com.deepconverse.android_sdk.DeepConverseSDK;
import com.deepconverse.webviewapp.R;

import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;




public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements DeepConverseSDK.WebViewCallback {

    private Button openWebViewButton;
    private LinearLayout webUrlContainer;
    private DeepConverseSDK deepConverseSDK;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        openWebViewButton = findViewById(R.id.openWebViewButton);
        webUrlContainer = findViewById(R.id.webUrlContainer);

        openWebViewButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                if (deepConverseSDK != null) {
                    // Remove the existing WebUrlView if present
                    webUrlContainer.removeView(deepConverseSDK);
                    deepConverseSDK.destroyView();
                }

                // Create a new instance of WebUrlView
                Map<String, String> metadata = new HashMap<>();
                metadata.put("draft", "true");
                deepConverseSDK = new DeepConverseSDK(MainActivity.this, DOMAIN,
                        BOT_NAME, metadata);
                deepConverseSDK.setLayoutParams(new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(
                        LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
                        LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT));
                deepConverseSDK.setWebViewCallback(MainActivity.this);
                deepConverseSDK.load();
                webUrlContainer.addView(deepConverseSDK);

                // Show the webUrlContainer and trigger a layout pass
                webUrlContainer.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
                webUrlContainer.requestLayout();
            }
        });
    }

    @Override
    public void onViewClosed() {
        // Remove the WebUrlView from the container
        if (deepConverseSDK != null) {
            webUrlContainer.removeView(deepConverseSDK);
            deepConverseSDK.destroyView();
            deepConverseSDK = null;
            webUrlContainer.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        }
    }
}
