Hello Bob! I've been working on integrating our new '消息中台' with the existing agents or '代理商'. Do you have any tips for making this integration smoother?
Bob
Hey Alice! Sure thing. The key is to ensure that both systems can communicate effectively using standard APIs. We should start by defining clear endpoints for data exchange.
Alice
That makes sense. Could you give me an example of how we could define such endpoints in Python?
Bob
Of course! Here's a basic Flask app setup for handling messages:
from flask import Flask, request, jsonify
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/receive', methods=['POST'])
def receive_message():
data = request.get_json()
# Process the message
print("Received:", data)
return jsonify({"status": "success"}), 200
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run(port=5000)

This looks good so far. Now, what about the agents? How do they send data to this endpoint?
Bob
We need to ensure the agents use HTTP POST requests with JSON payloads. For example, here’s a simple script they might use:
import requests
import json
url = "http://localhost:5000/receive"
payload = {"message": "Hello from Agent!"}
headers = {'Content-Type': 'application/json'}
response = requests.post(url, data=json.dumps(payload), headers=headers)
print(response.text)
]]>

Great! So, the agents just need to make sure their scripts follow these conventions. But how do we handle errors or retries if something goes wrong?
Bob
For error handling, we can implement middleware in the Flask app to catch exceptions and log them. Additionally, agents should implement retry logic using exponential backoff to avoid overwhelming the server.
Alice
Got it. This seems like a solid foundation for our collaboration. Thanks for walking me through this, Bob!
Bob
You're welcome, Alice! Let me know if you run into any issues along the way.
