My first ever terminal UI! Everything is stored locally on sqlite and written in Go!

• Go
• bubbletea: A Go framework for terminal user interfaces. It's a great framework that makes it easy to create TUIs in Go.
• openai: OpenAI's REST Api
• sqlite: A C library that provides a lightweight disk-based database that doesn't require a separate server process (perfect for terminal apps, in my opinion).
• lipgloss: Style definitions for nice terminal layouts!
• bubbles: Some general use components for Bubble Tea apps!

Please make sure that you expose a OPENAI_API_KEY inside of your environment; we require it to make api calls!

Set up your api key

export OPENAI_API_KEY="some-key" # you would want to export this in your .zshrc
brew tap tearingitup786/tearingitup786
brew install chatgpt-tui
chatgpt-tui

To get access to the release candidates, install command:

brew install rc-chatgpt-tui
rc-chatgpt-tui

We provide a config.json file within your directory for easy access to essential settings. On most Macs, the path is ~/.chatgpt-tui/config.json. This file includes the URL used for network calls to the TUI, specified as chatGPTApiUrl: "https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions". Additionally, the systemMessage field is available for customizing system prompt messages.

• Tab: *Change focus between panes. The currently focused pane will be highlighted with a pink border.
  • You can only change focus if Prompt Pane is not in insert mode
• Ctrl+o: Toggles zen mode
• Ctrl+c: Exit the program

• i: Enters insert mode (you can now safely paste messages into the tui)
• esc: Exit insert mode for the prompt

• y: Copies the last message from ChatGPT into your clipboard.
• Y: Copies all messages from the ChatGPT session into your clipboard.

• m: Opens an input dialog to change the model.
• f: Opens an input dialog to change the frequency of updates.
• t: Opens an input dialog to set the maximum number of tokens per message.

• Ctrl+N: Creates a new session.
• d: Deletes the currently selected session from the list.
• Enter: Switches to the session that is currently selected.

Please refer to this guide as you navigate the TUI. Happy exploring!

The SQL db is stored in you your/home/directory/.chatgpt-tui, as well as the debug log. To enable debug mode, export DEBUG=1 before running the program.
