⚡ Creating AI applications has never been easier ⚡
The heart of Corby’s internal working are the templates. Everytime you run corby on your terminal, you can choose between a variety of templates to start your project.
However, sometimes the predefined templates will just not enough for you. If that’s the case, Worry not!
The only thing you need to do is to create a new github repository for your template. Use this command to create the basic folder structure:
# From your repository's root folder
echo "" > inputs.json && mkdir skeleton
Place all your template files (including your docs) under the skeleton folder.
There are no predefined rules on how to structure your template files inside this folder. Corby is pretty flexible and he will adapt to whatever architecture you decide 🤗
One of the best things of Corby templates is that you can use on your code a variety of magic parameters that will be injected on your template auto-magically whenever a new project is created from your template. For example, you could write the following code:
print(f"Hello, I am 🤖!")
Now if somebody creates a new app called ‘Blender’ (for example), the new app will have this code:
print(f"Hello, I am Blender 🤖!")
📚 You can find the full list of available corby params here.
What happens if I want to use in my template a parameter that doesn’t come by default with Corby?
Worry not! because you can still define your own custom parameters on the inputs.json file of your project’s root folder.
Let’s suppose you want, for example, to parametrize the user’s OpenAI token. You would write a inputs.json file like this:
[
{
"name": "openai_api_key",
"kind": "text",
"message": "Paste your OpenAI API key here"
}
]
And voilà! 🪄🔮 Now you can use `` on your template code. For example:
import os
os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = ""
response = openai.Completion.create(
model="text-davinci-003",
prompt="Translate this into 1. French, 2. Spanish and 3. Japanese: What rooms do you have available?.",
temperature=0.3,
max_tokens=100,
top_p=1.0,
frequency_penalty=0.0,
presence_penalty=0.0
)
Internally, Corby uses inquirer to ask the questions to the users. Logically, the inputs.json file follows the same format as inquirer. You can find here the docs to elaborate any kind of question.
