OpenAI Builder Lab

This repository contains a starter project to help you go through the Builder Lab challenges faster.

It consists of a NextJS application, in the frontend folder, and an optional python backend in the python-backend folder. You can use the built-in back-end in the NextJS application (/api/route), or change the endpoint to point to the python backend if you prefer using python.

How to use

Download or clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/openai/openai-builder-lab.git

Navigate to the starting point NextJS app:

cd starting_point/frontend

Set your OpenAI API key:

2 options:

Set the OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable globally in your system
Set the OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable in the project: Create a .env file at the root of the project and add the following line:

OPENAI_API_KEY=<your_api_key>

Install dependencies:

npm install

Run the application:

npm run dev

(Optional) Run the python backend:

a. Navigate to the python-backend folder:
```
cd ../python-backend
```
b. Install dependencies:
```
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
c. Run the backend:
```
python app.py
```

Go through the lab by adding gradually the code needed for each challenge. Feel free to ask our team for help at any time!

App structure

UI

The frontend part of the application lives in frontend/components. If you want to customize the UI, you can do so by editing the files in this folder or adding new components.

Code Logic

All the code logic lives in frontend/lib. This is where the logic related to making the assistant work is. You can edit those files, following the suggested structure, to progress through the challenges.

For example:

constants.ts contains all constants such as system prompt, initial message, etc.
tools.ts is meant to contain logic related to the tools the assistant has access to.
assistant.ts contains logic to send and receive messages to the API via the backend.

The messages are stored in a store shared across components, located in frontend/stores/useConversationStore.ts. You shouldn't have to edit this file.

Backend

The backend routes are located in frontend/app/api, or python-backend/app.py.

This is where you can communicate with APIs, including OpenAI APIs. Feel free to add more routes as you progress through the challenges.

The first route get_response is provided as an example, and you can follow the same structure to add more routes.
