I'm using the following to send text to wit.ai through a button press function:
@IBAction func searchButton(sender: AnyObject) {
searchQueryText = searchTextInput.text!
if searchQueryText != "" {
wit.interpretString(searchQueryText, customData: nil)
}
func interpretString(string: String, customData: AnyObject) {
}
this works fine as the text is sent to wit.ai. However I get no response from wit.ai back to the app. I can get the response fine if a microphone is used, just not text. I have tried calling the witDidGraspIntent function to force it to run on button press, but I can't work out what I should use in the 'outcomes' parameter. Can anybody help on this? I'm not sure if there is a different way to run the function after button press? This is the function:
func witDidGraspIntent(outcomes: [AnyObject]!, messageId: String!, customData: AnyObject!, error e: NSError!) {
if ((e) != nil) {
print("\(e.localizedDescription)")
return
}
let outcomes : NSArray = outcomes!
let firstOutcome : NSDictionary = outcomes.objectAtIndex(0) as! NSDictionary
if let intent = firstOutcome.objectForKey("intent") as? String {
searchResultsIntent = intent
}
if searchResultsIntent == "searchIntent" {
intentLabel.text = "\(searchResultsIntent)"
print(outcomes[0])
} else {
intentLabel.text = "I'm sorry, I did not understand that."
}
}
here is the documentation for wit.ai: https://wit.ai/docs/ios/4.0.0/api
any assistance is greatly appreciated!
cheers.
Wit sdk gives a sharedInstance (singleton) for users to work on, so you have initiate it like -:
Wit.sharedInstance().accessToken = "TOKEN"
Wit.sharedInstance().delegate = self
and invoke the interpretString function using the sharedInstance i.e.
Wit.sharedInstance().interpretString(text, customData: nil)
