This project implements an interactive chatbot using OpenAI's GPT-3.5 model, providing a typing effect and a loading animation in the command-line interface.
- Loading Animation: While waiting for the GPT-3.5 response, a dynamic loading animation is displayed to the user.
- Typing Effect: The bot's responses are printed one character at a time, simulating a typing effect.
- Conversation History: The conversation history is maintained and used in generating responses, allowing for consistent and context-aware interaction.
- Custom Instructions: Specific guidelines and instructions can be set to guide the model's responses.
- Python 3.x
- OpenAI Python package
- dotenv package for environment variable handling
-
Clone the repository.
-
Install the required packages using the following command:
pip install openai python-dotenv
-
Set up the OpenAI API key in a
.envfile in the project root directory with the following content:OPENAI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
-
Run the Python script using the command:
python your_script_name.py
-
Follow the on-screen instructions to interact with the chatbot.
loading_animation(): Displays a dynamic loading animation.stop_loading_animation(): Stops the loading animation and clears it from the console.print_typing_effect(text, delay=0.005): Prints the given text to the console, one character at a time, with a specified delay.
The script allows custom instructions to be passed to the GPT-3.5 model, which can be modified in the custom_instruct variable.
The conversation can be ended by the user by initiating a keyboard interrupt (Ctrl+C).
