Chat Gipity

Chat gipity is a command line client for ChatGPT. It allows you to chat with your chosen model of ChatGPT in a terminal and even pipe output into it. The default model is GPT-4.

For example, say you wanted to debug your rust program that doesnt compile and want ChatGPT to explain it, you can pipe the output through chat-gipityto help you debug like this:

Another usage is reading from a file. In this example we read from a file and ask ChatGPT to convert that file to another programming language:

cgip "convert this to python" -f src/main.rs

Installation

Install from crates.io with cargo

cargo install cgip

Install via homebrew

If you dont have the tap, add it:

brew tap divanvisagie/homebrew-tap

Install cgip with brew:

brew install cgip

Manual installation

Download this repository and then install the cgip command

sudo make install

Set up API Key

Next, set up your OpenAI key by exporting it as OPENAI_API_KEY

export OPENAI_API_KEY=your_key_here

You can now pipe data to cgip, remember to use 2>&1 to convert stderr to stdout if you are debugging, as the app can only read stdin
