codegpt 0.2.15

A CLI tool for refactoring code using OpenAI's models

Codegpt

0.2.15

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 --upgrade

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 try this

Usage To try Codegpt, you can run the following command:

codegpt do <instructions (quoted)> -f readme.md 

It can do basically anything. Try handing in some files for context and telling it to generate something new - SQL queries, new features, documentation, whatever.

Or use the quick command to do some neat stuff, like:

Generate docs

codegpt quick docs <filenames>

Change variable names to be more readable

codegpt quick varnames <filenames>

Add comments to your code automatically

codegpt quick comment <filenames>

Check for bugs (iffy, but worth a shot)

codegpt quick bugs <filenames>

Check for vulnerabilities (even more iffy, but worth a shot)

codegpt quick vulns <filenames>

Try to make code less miserable

codegpt quick ugh <filenames>

Keep in mind that using GPT-3 for code generation is paid, with a cost of 2 cents per 1,000 tokens.

Just like with a Jr Dev, it's best to break up your tasks into smaller pieces to improve the results.
