DSPy for code generation

[SaiKrishnaBala]

I was exploring different use cases which can be addressed using DSPy programming. I could see use cases from question-answering, classification, sentiment analysis, document summarisation,. But I could not see any examples or use cases which are close to code generation tasks. I wanted to generate code(testing the system) using a given paragraph. Is it possible to address it using DSPy programming?
I'm also searching for approaches where i can feed the context from the complete repository(or dependent repos) to LLM during the retrieve stage.

For indexing your code base you might want to look into ragatouille https://github.com/bclavie/ragatouille .
It is based on the ColBERT and seems to have a focus on ease of use.
I don't see why you shouldn't be able to use DSPy for generating and executing code. You could even use DSPy Assert/Suggest to give feedback to the LM in case there are issues/errors.
DSPy als has a Module that generates and executes code for reasoning, maybe you can find some inspiration there: https://dspy-docs.vercel.app/docs/deep-dive/modules/program-of-thought

@SaiKrishnaBala relevant example for using PoT for code generation

Well I would just say that you obviously need to use a powerful LLM with strong code generation capabilities as well.
