v4.0.0

After a lot of internal dogfooding and bot building, we decided to change the API in a backwards-incompatible way. The changes are described below and aim to simplify user code and accommodate upcoming features.

See ./examples to see how to use the new API.

Breaking changes

  • say renamed to send to reflect that it deals with more than just text
  • Removed built-in actions merge and error
  • Actions signature simplified with request and response arguments
  • INFO level replaces LOG level
  • adding verbose option for message, converse and run_actions

v3.5

  • allows for overriding API version, by setting WIT_API_VERSION
  • fixes unicode error
  • adds custom logging
  • warns instead of throwing when validating actions

breaking

  • bumped default API version from 20160330 to 20160516

v3.4.1

  • interactive() mode
  • fixed default arg for context
  • fixed say action in examples/quickstart.py
  • examples to take the Wit access token in argument

v3.4.0

Unifying action parameters

breaking

  • the say action now takes 3 parameters: session_id, context, msg
  • the error action now takes 3 parameters: session_id, context, e

v3.3.0

Updating action parameters

breaking

  • the merge action now takes 4 parameters: session_id, context, entities, msg
  • the error action now takes context as second parameter
  • custom actions now take 2 parameters: session_id, context

v3.2

  • Fixed request keyword arguments issue
  • Better error messages

v3.1

  • Added examples/template.py
  • Fixed missing type
  • Updated examples/weather.py to examples/quickstart.py to reflect the docs

v3.0

Bot Engine integration

breaking

  • the message API is wrapped around a Wit class, and doesn't take the token as first parameter

v2.0

Rewrite in pure Python

breaking

  • audio recording and streaming have been removed because:
    • many people only needed access to the HTTP API, and audio recording did not make sense for server-side use cases
    • dependent on platform, choice best left to developers
    • forced us to maintain native bindings as opposed to a pure Pythonic library
  • we renamed the functions to match the HTTP API more closely
    • .text_query(string, access_token) becomes .message(access_token, string)
  • all functions now return a Python dict instead of a JSON string
