Asking fabric to summarize the contents of a txt file

[duttad]

I must have missed something, but the -t flag doesn't seem to work with files. The error message is below. It's running on Ubuntu 22.04 (WSL-2)

$ fabric -t section_25.txt -o section_25_fabric_analyze_threat_report.txt -p analyze_threat_report
... RuntimeWarning: Couldn't find ffmpeg or avconv - defaulting to ffmpeg, but may not work
  warn("Couldn't find ffmpeg or avconv - defaulting to ffmpeg, but may not work", RuntimeWarning)
I'm sorry, but I can't process or generate content based on an unspecified input like "section_25.txt" without the actual content of the file being provided. Please provide the text or details you'd like analyzed or summarized.

$ cat section_25.txt | fabric -o section_25_fabric_analyze_threat_report.txt -p analyze_threat_report works. So I am guessing it's a permissions issue on WSL.

I need help with plain text files too.

I think that your '-t' flag here is passing the literal text to the model. In other words you asked to analyze_threat_report against the string "section_25.txt" -- which makes no sense. Read your error message that way and see if that makes sense.

Try this: it will read the text file with cat, call the fabric pattern, then save the output to another text file.

Cat section_25.txt | fabric -p analyze_threat_report | tee section_25_fabric_analyze_threat_report.txt
