codegpt 0.0.9

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.

Posting about progress here:

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.

Be careful! But let's go.

The fun stuff is in the unsafe command.

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

codegpt unsafe edit .\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 unsafe edit - Try it with anything. Markdown blog posts, js, yaml, python, whatever.
• codegpt unsafe varnames - Changes variable names (and supposed to only be variable names...) to be readable
• codegpt unsafe 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.
