HOW OUR CHATBOT IS CREATED

Integrating youtube with MindsDB

MindsDB already has youtube integrated with it which has video table,comment table etc.for our use we need only comments Table. So first we need to create a data base with youtube api in mindsdb editor with this command.

CREATE DATABASE mindsdb_youtube
WITH ENGINE = 'youtube',
PARAMETERS = {
  "youtube_api_token": "your api key"  
};

then we have to create a job which will keep selecting comment from comments table of youtube database this requires a video id which will be the video whose comment we will analyze.

CREATE JOB fetch_youtube_comments_job AS (
    SELECT * 
    FROM mindsdb_youtube.comments
    WHERE video_id = 'video-id'
    ORDER BY display_name ASC
    LIMIT 15
)
EVERY '2 MINUTES'

this creates a job which will run every 2 minutes

Integrating OpenAI with MindsDB

For this project we are going to use OpenAI gpt-4 as LLM .Now MindsDB also has this integrated with them so we just need to create a ML engine using Open-AI engine using this command

this will create something like this on left side of MindsDB

now the model is created.Yes! it is that easy to create it with MindsDB .Are you jealous now that why you should also use MindsDB.

Now after this we need to test it first we can do it directly from mindsdb editor woth this command.

SELECT analysis from youtube_comment_analysis
WHERE author_username = "someuser"
AND comment='please suscribe to my channel here is the link';

this will show output like this

after this we need to create a view like this

CREATE VIEW analyzed_comments AS (
    SELECT 
        c.user_id,
        c.display_name,
        c.comment
    FROM mindsdb_youtube.comments AS c
    JOIN mindsdb.youtube_comment_analysis AS m
    ON c.comment = m.prompt_template 
    WHERE c.video_id = 'video id'
    ORDER BY c.display_name ASC
);

Integrating mindsdb with Slack

Now MindsDB also has slack integrated with them.so,we just need to create a slack database with this command.

CREATE DATABASE mindsdb_slack
WITH
  ENGINE = 'slack',
  PARAMETERS = {
      "token": "yourtoken",
      "app_token": "yourtoken"
    };

to know how to use slack channels as a chatbot please refer this doc

after this we need to test if our slackbot is working or not by sending a custom message like this.

INSERT INTO mindsdb_slack.channels(channel, text)
VALUES ('youtubebuddy', 'comment analysis coming soon');

this sends a message to your selected slack channel.like this

Creating a Job

Now we need to create a job which will automatically can run every 1 min or more or less as you want it.we can create the job like this.

CREATE JOB fetch_youtubse_comment_alert  (
INSERT INTO mindsdb_slack.channels(channel, text)
VALUES ('youtubebuddy', 'comment analysis coming soon');

INSERT INTO mindsdb_slack.channels (channel, text)
SELECT 
    'youtubebuddy12' AS channel,
    CONCAT(
        'Analysis: ', m.analysis
    ) AS text
FROM 
    analyzed_comments AS c
JOIN 
    mindsdb.youtube_comment_analysis AS m 
    ON c.comment = m.prompt_template
