DevSearch is a VSCode extension developed as part of Exa's retrieval hackathon. It performs web retrieval for code documentation and GitHub repositories to provide up-to-date and customized guidance for developers.
- Web retrieval using Exa's search API for GitHub repos
- Documentation and article search using Serper
- Considers user's code files, queries, and version dependencies
- Combines existing code context with newly retrieved information
- Particularly helpful for tasks beyond coding, such as using frameworks or deploying to servers
- Clone this repository
- Open the project in VSCode
- Run and debug the code to open a new VSCode window with the extension
You'll need to provide the following API keys:
EXA_API_KEYSERPER_API_KEYOPENAI_API_KEY
- Upload your code files to the extension
- Input your query
- DevSearch will analyze your code, consider dependencies, and retrieve relevant information from the web
- Review the customized guidance provided by the extension
This project is a work in progress. Updates and improvements will be made regularly.
