Demo (YouTube)

Quickstart

Install latest release version to $HOME/.cargo/bin/ via cargo:

cargo install heygpt

You'll need a OpenAI API key (you can get one here), and you'll need to export your API Key as an environment variable:

You can also set a OpenAI API base environment variable, just like openai-python

export OPENAI_API_KEY=<your api key>
# export OPENAI_API_BASE="https://api.openai.com/v1"

Then you can start an interactive conversation with ChatGPT:

heygpt

OR use the one-shot mode by providing a prompt:

heygpt how to record screen on mac

You can also compose prompt with bash tricks like

heygpt read the code and tell me what it is doing: $(cat src/main.rs)

heygpt read the code diff and write a commit message: $(git diff)

You may need write prompt in multiple lines:

heygpt "please translate this poem to English:
> 床前明月光，
> 疑是地上霜。
> 举头望明月，
> 低头思故乡。"
