cli-chatgpt(cgpt)

CLI to call chatGPT api with query and system context.

Steps

1. Get API keys from openai setting
2. [Optional]Setup apikey as OPENAI_API_KEY in environment variable. If this is not set, key need to be enter key first time you run the cli
3. Build go by cloning the repo and run go build or download from release.
4. Make file executable and move to env path like /usr/local/bin. For Mac check Issue session after this. sudo chmod +x cgpt-XXX && sudo mv cgpt-XXX /usr/local/bin/cgpt
5. Run cgpt -q "your text".
6. If yout want to change system context you can add flag -sc like cgpt -q "your text" -sc "chat bot that fix grammer of input text"

Flags

  -q, --query string            Query for chat prompt. You can pass just Args to, first Args is taken as query.
  -s, --system_context string   System context (default "Your are chatbot. Always be more detail.")
  -c, --code                    Flag to just get code.
  -d, --debug                   Print query, system context and response
  -g, --grammar                 Flag to fix grammar of text.
  -j, --json                    Flag to just get json.

Examples

#simple query
cgpt "Make todo list to be productivity"
cgpt -q "Make todo list to be productivity"

# added the system context
cgpt "Make todo list to productivity" -s "Your are the expert"

# debug , print more detail
cgpt "Make todo list to productivity" -s "Your are the expert" -d
cgpt "Make todo list to productivity" -s "Your are the expert" -d

# other flag
cgpt -c "write python code to make https request to weather api"

Issue

1. On Mac getting "cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified."
   Solution 1: Build locally and move the file
   Solution 2: Close the popup. Open System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General, and clicking on the "Allow Anyway" button. When asked again. Click on open.

Tip and Tricks

1. On mac directly copy output

cgpt "write email to client asking for demo" | pbcopy

Why not use chatGPT UI?

• I love cli and chatGPT UI keep going over capacity.
• You can set system context on api.
• This will be dirt cheap compare for $20 for plus.

Goal

• Slove all developer query from cli.
• Fix grammar and write better email using cli only.
• First point of contact before google.

Need Help

• Write better system context
• Add more system context
• Add more parameters
• Add test cases
• Refactor code

Disclaimer

I am currently in the process of learning golang and hate pointers. As a result, my code may not be structured optimally. However, I intend to refactor it as I become more proficient in the language.
