Errbot is a python chatbot, this storage plugin allows you to use it with Google Firebase as a persistent storage.
- Go to Google Firebase and create an account, developers account are free.
- First you need to clone this repository somewhere, for example:
mkdir /home/gbin/err-storage
cd /home/gbin/err-storage
git clone https://github.com/errbotio/err-storage-firebase- Then you need to add this section to your config.py, following the previous example:
BOT_EXTRA_STORAGE_PLUGINS_DIR='/home/gbin/err-storage'
STORAGE = 'Firebase'
STORAGE_CONFIG = {
'data_url': 'https://radiant-bear-6933.firebaseio.com/',
'secret': '6F51OL7rAOBCcq2sU36cAHh0z01Vneq29LpQkx58',
'email': '[email protected]'}You can find your secret from your project page (which is the same as the data_url) and click on the bottom left on "secrets". You can either use the one there or create a new one.
Start your bot in text mode: errbot -T to give it a shot.
If you want to migrate from the local storage to firebase, you should be able to backup your data (with STORAGE commented) then restore it back with STORAGE uncommented.
