# Introduction
Sarah is a general-purpose bot framework named after the author's firstborn daughter.

This comes with a unique feature called "stateful command" as well as some basic features such as commands and scheduled tasks.
In addition to those fundamental features, this project provides rich life cycle management including _**[live configuration update](https://github.com/oklahomer/go-sarah/wiki/Live-Configuration-Update)**_, _**[customizable alerting mechanism](https://github.com/oklahomer/go-sarah/wiki/Alerter)**_, _**automated [command](https://github.com/oklahomer/go-sarah/wiki/CommandPropsBuilder)\/[task](https://github.com/oklahomer/go-sarah/wiki/ScheduledTaskPropsBuilder) (re)building**_, and _**[panic-proofed concurrent command/task execution](https://github.com/oklahomer/go-sarah/wiki/Worker)**_.

Such features are achieved with a composition of fine-grained components.
Each component has its own interface and a default implementation, so developers are free to customize their bot experience by replacing the default implementation for a particular component with their own implementation.
Thanks to such segmentalized lifecycle management architecture, the [adapter component](https://github.com/oklahomer/go-sarah/wiki/Default-Bot-and-Adapter) to interact with each chat service has fewer responsibilities compared to other bot frameworks;
An adapter developer may focus on implementing the protocol to interact with the corresponding chat service.
To take a look at those components and their relations, see [Components](https://github.com/oklahomer/go-sarah/wiki/Components).

# IMPORTANT NOTICE
## v4 Release
This is the fourth major version of `go-sarah`, which involves some architectural changes:
- `sarah.NewBot` now returns a single value: `sarah.Bot`
- Utility packages including logger, retry, and worker are now hosted by `github.com/oklahomer/go-kasumi`

## v3 Release
This is the third major version of `go-sarah`, which introduces the Slack adapter's improvement to support both RTM and Events API.
Breaking interface changes for the Slack adapter was inevitable and that is the sole reason for this major version up.
Other than that, this does not include any breaking change.
See [Migrating from v2.x to v3.x](https://github.com/oklahomer/go-sarah/wiki/Migrating-from-v2.x-to-v3.x) for details.

## v2 Release
The second major version introduced some breaking changes to `go-sarah`.
This version still supports and maintains all functionalities, while better interfaces for easier integration are introduced.
See [Migrating from v1.x to v2.x](https://github.com/oklahomer/go-sarah/wiki/Migrating-from-v1.x-to-v2.x) to migrate from the older version.

# Supported Chat Services/Protocols
Although a developer may implement `sarah.Adapter` to integrate with the desired chat service,
some adapters are provided as reference implementations:
- [Slack](https://github.com/oklahomer/go-sarah/tree/master/slack)
- [Gitter](https://github.com/oklahomer/go-sarah/tree/master/gitter)
- [XMPP](https://github.com/oklahomer/go-sarah-xmpp)
- [LINE](https://github.com/oklahomer/go-sarah-line)

# At a Glance
## General Command Execution
![hello world](/doc/img/hello.png)

Above is a general use of `go-sarah`.
Registered commands are checked against the user input and the matching one is executed;
when a user inputs ".hello," hello command is executed and a message "Hello, 世界" is returned.

## Stateful Command Execution
The below image depicts how a command with a user's **conversational context** works.
The idea and implementation of "user's conversational context" is `go-sarah`'s signature feature that makes a bot command "**state-aware**."

![](/doc/img/todo_captioned.png)

The above example is a good way to let a user input a series of arguments in a conversational manner.
Below is another example that uses a stateful command to entertain the user.

![](/doc/img/guess_captioned.png)

## Example Code
Following is the minimal code that implements such general command and stateful command introduced above.
In this example, two ways to implement [`sarah.Command`](https://github.com/oklahomer/go-sarah/wiki/Command) are shown.
One simply implements `sarah.Command` interface; while another uses `sarah.CommandPropsBuilder` for lazy construction.
Detailed benefits of using `sarah.CommandPropsBuilder` and `sarah.CommandProps` are described at its wiki page, [CommandPropsBuilder](https://github.com/oklahomer/go-sarah/wiki/CommandPropsBuilder).

For more practical examples, see [./examples](https://github.com/oklahomer/go-sarah/tree/master/examples).

```go

"os"
"os/signal"
"syscall"

// Below packages register commands in their init().
// Importing with a blank identifier will do the magic.
_ "guess"
_ "hello"
)

func main() {
// Set up Slack adapter
setupSlack()

// Prepare Sarah's core context.
ctx, cancel := context.WithCancel(context.Background())

// Run
config := sarah.NewConfig()
err := sarah.Run(ctx, config)
if err != nil {
panic(fmt.Errorf("failed to run: %s", err.Error()))
}

// Stop when a signal is sent.
c := make(chan os.Signal, 1)
signal.Notify(c, syscall.SIGTERM)
select {
case <-c:
cancel()

}
}

func setupSlack() {
// Set up slack adapter.
slackConfig := slack.NewConfig()
slackConfig.Token = "REPLACE THIS"
adapter, err := slack.NewAdapter(slackConfig, slack.WithRTMPayloadHandler(slack.DefaultRTMPayloadHandler))
if err != nil {
panic(fmt.Errorf("faileld to setup Slack Adapter: %s", err.Error()))
}

// Set up an optional storage so conversational contexts can be stored.
cacheConfig := sarah.NewCacheConfig()
storage := sarah.NewUserContextStorage(cacheConfig)

// Set up a bot with Slack adapter and a default storage.
bot := sarah.NewBot(adapter, sarah.BotWithStorage(storage))

sarah.RegisterBot(bot)
}

# Supported Golang Versions
Official [Release Policy](https://golang.org/doc/devel/release.html#policy) says "each major Go release is supported
until there are two newer major releases." Following this policy would help this project enjoy the improvements
introduced in the later versions. However, not all projects can immediately switch to a newer environment.
Migration could especially be difficult when this project cuts off the older version's support right after a new major Go
release.

As a transition period, this project includes support for one older version than the Go project does.
Such a version is guaranteed to be listed in [.travis.ci](https://github.com/oklahomer/go-sarah/blob/master/.travis.yml).
In other words, new features/interfaces introduced in 1.10 can be used in this project only after 1.12 is out.
