Implement Chatbot Logic in Front End
In this step you will connect your function call(s) for user interactions with your components.
Tasks:
- Handle user input
- Generate responses
- Use state management of your desire
- Connect your components to the above
- Follow best practises and add tests for above functionalities
See example of how this can look:
// Example Next.js page using React hooks and state
import { useState } from 'react'
import { getOpenAIResponse } from '../services/openai'
function Chatbot() {
const [messages, setMessages] = useState([])
const [input, setInput] = useState('')
const handleSendMessage = async () => {
// Add user message to the state
setMessages([...messages, { text: input, type: 'user' }])
// Get OpenAI response
const response = await getOpenAIResponse(input)
// Add OpenAI response to the state
setMessages([...messages, { text: response, type: 'bot' }])
// Clear the input field
setInput('')
}
return (
<div>
{/* Render messages and input field */}
<div>
{messages.map((message, index) => (
<div key={index} className={message.type}>
{message.text}
</div>
))}
</div>
<input
type="text"
value={input}
onChange={(e) => setInput(e.target.value)}
/>
<button onClick={handleSendMessage}>Send</button>
</div>
)
}
export default Chatbot
