codegpt 0.0.7

A CLI tool for refactoring Python code using OpenAI's text-davinci-003 model

Codegpt

A tool for using GPT just a little quicker. A nearly truly automated footgun. Learn how to revert with git before trying please.

Getting Started

pip install codegpt

And set your openapi API key as an environment variable like they recommend: In their docs here

Windows users can also use setx like:

$ setx OPENAI_SECRET_KEY=<YOUR_API_KEY>

from an admin console.

Then find a file you hate (Back it up! Don't do it live!) and give it a shot.

codegpt refactor .\helper.py "Break this up into smaller functions where you can. Add google style docstrings. Feel free to rewrite any code doesn't make sense."

You'll see something like:

This prompt is 254 tokens, are you sure you want to continue?
The most GPT-3 can return in response is 3843. [y/N]: y

(and after a short wait...)

Explanation: The code has been refactored into smaller functions to improve readability, and Google style docstrings have been added.

Other things to try:

• codegpt edit - For editing markdown files, including code blocks. Hello, blog editor!
• codegpt varnames - Changes variable names (and supposed to only be variable names...) to be readable
• codegpt comment - Automatically add comments to a file.

Propose endpoints as issues, I've got a few ideas:

• Explain file
• Write tests for file
• Generate SQL query from table spec files
• Generate new file
• Generate documentation from a file

Just remember this is paid - 2 cents per 1k tokens is a lot when you're working on files with a few hundred lines.

And remember to break up what you're working on - Results will be better with less moving parts and things to do.
