A shell module for trolling GPT without leaving the shell.

What can ShellGPT do for you?

This guide provides instructions for setting up a quick and interactive way to use GPT in your terminal.

• curl: Command-line tool for transferring data with URLs.
• jq: Lightweight and flexible command-line JSON processor.
• An OpenAI API Key: You'll need this to make requests to the GPT engine.
• Install curl and jq
• If you don't already have curl and jq, you can install them as follows:

brew install curl jq

sudo apt update sudo apt install curl jq

• ** Obtain OpenAI API Key **
• Add the following Bash or Zsh function to your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc file.
• This function will use curl to make a request to the OpenAI API and jq to parse the JSON response.
• ** Select a function from the main branch **

Note: Don't forget to replace your-openai-api-key-here with your actual OpenAI API key.

4: Reload Shell Configuration After adding the function, reload your shell configuration to make the function available.

source ~/.bashrc

source ~/.zshrc and when you update the file exec zsh of to immediatelz test your changes

• Simply type ai followed by your query, JSON output is supported but still a little bit buggy.
• The function will prompt you for input, make the API call, and display the GPT-generated response.
• Call the function name anyting you want in your config file to suit your preferences

$ ai What is the capital of France? GPT says: The capital of France is Paris.

You now have a quick and interactive way to use GPT models directly from your terminal. Feel free to modify and expand upon this basic example to better suit your specific needs.
