Routing our requests

The next piece we'll need to construct before we get to React is our API that will serve content to our frontend. Let's look at the steps:

1. n bot/views.py, set up the index route that we'll use for testing, and an API route that we'll serve our information with:

from django.http import HttpResponse
from django.template import Context, loader
from bot.models import Text
import random
import json

def index(request):
   template = loader.get_template("bot/index.html")
   return HttpResponse(template.render())

def api(request):
   if request.method == 'POST':
       data = json.loads(request.body.decode("utf8"))
       query = data['chattext']
       responses = Text.objects.filter(PlayerLine__contains=" %s " 
       % (query))

   if len(responses) > 0:
       return HttpResponse(responses[random.randint(0,
       len(responses))])

   else:
       return HttpResponse("Get thee to a nunnery!")

All of this...
