Commit AI

A command-line application built with Node.js that generates git commit messages using OpenAI's GPT-3 model. This app runs git diff in the current working directory, sends the output to the GPT-3 model, and presents multiple commit message suggestions. The user can then choose a message, and the app will commit the changes using the selected message.

Prerequisites

Node.js (latest version): https://nodejs.org/en/download/
A valid OpenAI API key: https://beta.openai.com/signup/

Installation

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/tommyle/commit_ai_nodejs.git

Change to the cloned directory:

cd commit_ai_nodejs

Install dependencies:

Usage

Set your OpenAI API key:

npm run build-and-run --set_api_key

You'll be prompted to enter your API key, which will be saved to a local file for future use.

Run the app to generate a commit message and commit the changes:

npm run start app.js

The app will display multiple commit message suggestions based on the git diff output. Choose a message and the app will commit the changes using the selected message.
