ReactJS AWS Lex Chat Component

Demo

http://react-lex.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com/

Prerequisites

The AWS Javascript SDK for the browser is required. This package will install the entire SDK, but all you need is AWS.LexRuntime and AWS.CognitoIdentity. We recommend you build your own version of the AWS SDK for JavaScript using the builder to include only the services you need.

You will need to set up an AWS Cognito federated identity pool, and pass the IdentityPoolId as props to the component. Be sure to enable access to unauthenticated identities, and modify the IAM roles to allow access to Amazon Lex. From the IAM console, attach the AmazonLexRunBotsOnly and AmazonPollyReadOnlyAccess policies. This blog post walks through the process in detail.

Installing react-lex

npm install --save react-lex

Using the Component

Example:

import LexChat from "react-lex";

class App extends Component {
  render() {
        <LexChat botName="OrderFlowers"
                 IdentityPoolId="us-east-1:7292b8c0-56f1-4441-b2a6-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
                 placeholder="Placeholder text"
                 style={{position: 'absolute'}}
                 backgroundColor="#FFFFFF"
                 height="430px"
                 region="us-east-1"
                 headerText="Chat with our awesome bot" />
  }
}
export default App;
  • Your botname (ie. "OrderFlowers") is a required prop.
  • Your IdentityPoolId is a required prop.
