Rasa Deployment

Deploying Rasa Bot over Google Cloud Platform using Docker.

Prerequisites:

• Docker
• Docker Compose

Instructions:

For deploying over Server:

• Create the VM instance of Ubuntu over Compute Engine

• once the instance is created login to the VM using SSH

• Run the below commands and clone our Docker app:

• sudo apt-get update

1) Install Docker

• curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add

• sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable"

• sudo apt-get update

• apt-cache policy docker-ce

• sudo apt-get install -y docker-ce

• sudo systemctl status docker

2) Install Docker-Compose

• sudo curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.18.0/docker-compose-`uname -s-uname -m` -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

• sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

• docker-compose --version

3) Clone the Docker App

• git clone https://github.com/athenasaurav/babblebots_demo.git

• cd babblebots_demo

4) Build the Docker app and run the services:

• docker-compose build

It will download the necessary docker images and will build the containers for us. Once the containers are ready , we can run the following command to make the containers up in running state:

• sudo docker-compose up -d

• Check whether the services are up and running using below command:

• docker ps -a

• Once you see all the services up and running, open the ip address of the machine in the browser and test the bot

5) To update the existing images after re-cloning

Reclone the github with changes

shutdown docker with

• docker-compose down

Re build the docker image with

• docker-compose build

then just do

• docker-compose up -d
