Chatbot Logic

The chatbot logic is simple.

We will search the incoming message for the words 'dog' and 'quote'. If the incoming message contains both the words, we return a media file containing a dog image and a famous quote along with it.

Here responded = False, acts as a flag to check whether or not a message has been responded.

 responded = False
    if 'quote' in incoming_msg:
        # Respond with a quote
        responded = True
    if 'dog' in incoming_msg:
        # Respond with a dog picture
        responded = True
    if not responded:
        # return a generic response here

We will use the following third-party APIs to supply the chatbot with quotes and dog pictures. On refreshing the API, a dog or a quote is returned.
