RiveScript-Perl

INTRODUCTION

This is the original RiveScript interpreter, written in Perl. RiveScript is a scripting language for chatterbots, making it easy to write trigger/response pairs for building up a bot's intelligence.

INSTALLATION

To install this module type the following:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

RPM BUILD

To build a RedHat package file for installing RiveScript, use the rpmbuild Perl script provided in the subversion repository.

Usage: perl rpmbuild

This results in a slightly different RPM than what you'd get via cpan2rpm or cpan2dist... along with installing the module in its proper place in your Perl libs, it will also install the rivescript and rsup utilities from the bin/ folder into your /usr/bin directory.

DEPENDENCIES

Nothing that isn't standard.

The Perl RiveScript interpreter is dual licensed as of version 1.22. For open source applications the module is using the GNU General Public License. If you'd like to use the RiveScript module in a closed source or commercial application, contact the author for more information.
