Steve
After experimenting with the CleverBot API, I thought I turn it in to a Bukkit plugin! This plugin will take message you "say" to Steve and send them over to Cleverbot for a response.
As said on the CleverBot website: "PLEASE NOTE - Cleverbot learns from real people - things it says may seem inappropriate - use with discretion, and at YOUR OWN RISK" "PARENTAL ADVICE - Visitors never talk to a human, however convincing it looks - the AI knows many topics - use ONLY WITH OVERSIGHT"
Features
- Simple and lightweight!
- Customisable response format.
- Customisable trigger.
- External work is done async. (No Lag)
Documentation
By default, Steve will respond to messages that start with "Steve, " however you can change this in the config file. Reloading and updating commands are restricted to only OPs. Anyone can publicly talk to Steve, however privately talking to Steve (/steve <message>) requires the permission [Steve.private] or OP.
Try Steve Out!
Here are a list of public servers which have Steve installed!
| Name | Server Address |
|---|---|
| ProjectPhoenixMc | ProjectPhoenixMc.verygames.net |
| Celestials Craft | celestialscraft.no-ip.org |
| Kingdom of Onixion | onixion.mine.bz |
(PM me to add your server.)

Posted Aug 31, 2013Great plugin.. Thanks for all your work!
Quick question about the "triggerBegin" option in the config: will it accept multiple triggers or just a single trigger phrase?

Thank you for the suggestion, but can you please make suggestions in the tickets section? It is way more easier to track for me. Thanks!
PS: You can change what triggers Steve to response in the configuration file. (New in v1.2+) :)

Posted Aug 29, 2013Genius. Absolutely genius. One little issue - is it possible to have Steve whisper the response back to the player? On my server (and many others, undoubtedly), chat is limited to a certain radius. It a bit odd when Steve just responds to someone far away, seemingly out of nowhere.
Looking forward to customizable triggers, keep up the great work!

I just tested the latest version and I am getting the same results. It appears CleverBot has changed something, or something like that. I'll look into it and hopefully find a solution soon.

Yes, this basically sends what you say to CleverBot, then answers back.
The trigger word is "Steve, " You need the comma and the space.
In the next version, the trigger word will be a lot less picky and will be configurable. :)

Posted Jul 25, 2013So, does this plugin use cleverbot to create responses?
Also, it would be nice to be able to change the trigger word to something else
Edit: just tried it, but the chatbot doesnt respond. I tried using "steve" and "Steve". Unfortunately i cant find any errors in the logfile
