Terminal-Chat

A simple chat bot under terminal

Installation

You can easily install it with following command

pip install requirements.txt

Then you should set your API_KEY environment variable, you can set it manually or put it in .env file. There are another environment variables that can be set:

• BASE_URL: If you are using API from other providers you can set it
• MODEL: Your desired LLM
• SYSTEM_ROLE: Message will be considered for system role
• MEMORY_TOP_K: In this project chat memory is simply created by added last k-messages to current prompt. Default value of k is 3, but you can adjust it.
