Output:

❯ uv run main.py                     
A function starts, a task to do,
Then deep within, it calls anew.
Not quite the same, a smaller plight,
A mirrored problem, day and night.

It solves a piece, then calls once more,
Until a simple, clear-cut shore,
A 'base case' known, it needs no aid,
The final step, no more afraid.

Then upwards climb the answers true,
From smallest part, right back to you.
Unwinding logic, sharp and neat,
Making the complex task complete!

It's a curious process, a mystical art,
Where a function calls itself, playing its part.
It takes a big problem, and breaks it with care,
Into smaller versions, floating in air.

Each call then proceeds, with
--------------------
 a sub-task so slight,
Until a "base case" at last comes in sight.
This simple condition, a must for its plight,
Ensures it won't loop through the day and the night.

Once that is
--------------------
 fulfilled, the process turns 'round,
The answers unwind, with a satisfying sound.
From the smallest of pieces, the whole starts to grow,
A powerful pattern, for all coders to know!

Structured complete response

# main.py
from google.genai import client as genai_client
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field

from ggmw import Client, Message

class Poem(BaseModel):
    """Represents a poem with 3 stanzas"""
    first_stanza:  str = Field(description="The first stanza of the poem")
    second_stanza: str = Field(description="The second stanza of the poem")    
    third_stanza:  str = Field(description="The third stanza of the poem")

    Message("system", "Answer in rhyme"),
    Message("user", "What is recursion")
]
 
response = client.structured_run(messages, Poem)

print(repr(response))

Output:

❯ uv run main.py
Poem(first_stanza='A function calling its own name,To solve a problem, light a flame.It does its task, then calls anew,Until a simpler path shines through.', second_stanza='There must be a stop, a base so clear,To quell the endless stack, my dear.If not, it calls, and calls with might,Until memory fades from sight.', third_stanza='For trees and fractals, tasks so grand,It helps to walk throughout the land.A loop unseen, a nested quest,Recursion puts logic to the test.')

Async client

You can also use the async client, which has the same interfaces as the above sync one

# main.py
import asyncio
from google.genai import client as genai_client
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field

from ggmw import AsyncClient, Message

class Poem(BaseModel):
    """Represents a poem with 3 stanzas"""
    first_stanza:  str = Field(description="The first stanza of the poem")
    second_stanza: str = Field(description="The second stanza of the poem")    
    third_stanza:  str = Field(description="The third stanza of the poem")

client = AsyncClient(
    genai_client.Client(api_key="<API_KEY_HERE>"),
    model="gemini-2.5-flash"
)
messages = [
    Message("system", "Answer in rhyme"),
    Message("user", "What is recursion")
]

async def main():
    async for partial in client.structured_stream(messages, Poem):
        print(repr(partial))
        print("-"*20)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())

Output:

❯ uv run main.py
PartialPoem(first_stanza='A curious loop, a self-same call,A function runs, then gives its all,By asking for its own dear name,To play again the very game.', second_stanza=None, third_stanza=None)
--------------------
PartialPoem(first_stanza='A curious loop, a self-same call,A function runs, then gives its all,By asking for its own dear name,To play again the very game.', second_stanza='It needs a stop, a simple truth,A base case known from early youth,To break the chain, to end the quest,And put the calling thoughts to rest.', third_stanza='Like mirrors deep')

Additional Notes:

• Some Gemini models have thinking enable (e.g. gemini-3-flash-preview), and you can set the thinking level when run those models

response = client.text_run(messages, thinking_level="LOW")

The Gemini API also has the ability to return the model thoughts, but it returns the thoughts along side the answer, and I don't know how to seperate them effectively so it is disabled (for now)

• In order for the structured output streaming to work, the provided output schema, which is a pydantic model, get converted to a partial version (same structure but all the fields are set to optional). This behavior is implicit to keep the client simple.

Maybe in the future, change the interfaces so that the caller must pass in the converted models to be more explicit? For now it is implicit for simplicity

The convertion function is called partial_model, and you can use it yourself

# main.py
from pydantic import BaseModel

from ggmw import partial

class User(BaseModel):
    name: str   # name, email and age are required 
    email: str
    age: int   
data = {
    "name": "foo",
    "email": "[e-mail]"
    # no age
}

ParitalUser = partial.partial_model(User) # name, email, and age are now optional
print(ParitalUser.model_validate(data))

Output:

❯ uv run main.py
name='foo' email='[e-mail]' age=None
