Git support

As part of EDDI's features, Git is supported, this means you can init, commit, push and pull a Chabot to a Git repository.

gitinit a Chatbot:

Exporting a bot is a fairly simple process, send a POST request to the following API endpoint and you will receive the location of the exported zip file on the response headers, specifically the location header.

Export Chatbot REST API Endpoint

    "content-length": "0",
    "location": "http://localhost:7070/backup/export/5aaf90e29f7dd421ac3c7dd4-1.zip",

}

Importing a bot :
