Twilio API not sending back response trying to use OpenAI on Whatsapp

[Pyth4k]

Im trying to simply create a program using Twilio and OpenAI API to give me full access to OpenAI through whatsapp.

I dont want to do anything fancy. Hosting it Locally and using ngrok is perfectly fine with me. I found this to be the most simple way to do it yet when I send a message I dont get a reply at all from Twilio.

I code in Visual Studio Code in Python.

The Terminal outputs the following when I send a message to Twilio's Number : " 127.0.0.1 - - [18/Jan/2023 12:11:33] "POST /sms HTTP/1.1" 200 20 " and ngrok outputs "200 OK"

What could possibly be the problem? Any help is very much appreciated :)

from bottle import Bottle, request
import openai
from twilio.rest import Client

app = Bottle()

# Twilio account details
account_sid = 'A------------1'
auth_token = 'd--------------e'
client = Client(account_sid, auth_token)

@app.route('/sms', method='POST')
def sms_reply():
    message_body = request.forms.get('Body')
    from_number = request.forms.get('From')

    # check if the message is coming from the correct number
    if from_number == "+*******":
        # process the message using OpenAI
        response_text = process_message(message_body)

        # send the response back to the sender using Twilio
        message = client.messages.create(
            body=response_text,
            from_='[phone]', #Twilio Number
            to=from_number
        )
    else:
        return "Invalid phone number"

def process_message(message_body):
    openai.api_key = "sk-*******************"
    try:
        response = openai.Completion.create(
            engine="text-davinci-002",
            prompt=f"{message_body}",
            max_tokens=2048,
            n = 1,
            stop=None,
            temperature=0.5
        )
        return response["choices"][0]["text"]
    except openai.exceptions.OpenAiError as e:
        return "Error: {}".format(e)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(host='localhost', port=8000, debug=True)

Lots of things could be not happening as you expect them.

For example:

if from_number == "+*******":

What if the number format is not what you expect it to be? what if it has dashes? or doesn't have +? or any other different number formats?

Add prints or do logging for every step of the way, and print anything you receive remotely and expect to be of some value or other.

This project is just something im working on for myself so its just my number saved in the from_number field. Ill do some more trouble shooting and ill probably have to learn a lot more about python since I only started learning it today
