Setup Instructions
Step 1: Register with Pandora Bot and create a new BOT.
Modify the default properties of the BOT.
Modify the custom HTML of the BOT as follows:
Publish your BOT and note down your BOT Id.
Step 2: Create a simple Java program that chats with the published Pandora BOT.
You need to have the following jar files in your class path:
- commons-codec-1.3.jar
- commons-httpclient-3.1-alpha1.jar
- commons-logging-1.1.jar
- commons-logging-adapters-1.1.jar
- commons-logging-api-1.1.jar
Step 3: Download the latest Smack libraries.
Create a simple GoogleTalk client using the Smack API. The client will use the pandorabot to send messages.
You need to have the following jar files in your classpath
- smack.jar
- smackx.jar
- smackx-debug.jar
- smackx-jingle.jar
Step 4: Thats it. Run your BOT and have fun.
