Gp.nvim provides you ChatGPT like sessions and instructable text/code operations in your favorite editor.
The commands now work with ranges and the commands with Visual
prefix were dropped.
Specifically the commands:GpChatNew
, :GpRewrite
, :GpAppend
, :GpPrepend
, :GpEnew
, :GpPopup
and their shortcuts now work across modes, either:
- as pure user commands without context in normal/insert mode
- with current selection (using whole lines) as a context in visual/Visual mode
- with specified range (such as
%
for the entire current buffer =>:%GpRewrite
)
Please update your shortcuts if you use them.
Install the plugin with your preferred package manager:
-- lazy.nvim
{
"robitx/gp.nvim",
config = function()
require("gp").setup(conf)
-- shortcuts might be setup here (see Usage > Shortcuts in Readme)
end,
}
-- packer.nvim
use({
"robitx/gp.nvim",
config = function()
require("gp").setup(conf)
-- shortcuts might be setup here (see Usage > Shortcuts in Readme)
end,
})
Make sure you have OpenAI API key. Get one here
and use it in the config (either directly or setup env OPENAI_API_KEY
).
Also consider setting up usage limits so you won't get suprised at the end of the month.
The plugin only needs curl
installed to make calls to OpenAI API and grep
for ChatFinder.
Here are the default values:
local config = {
-- required openai api key
openai_api_key = os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY"),
-- prefix for all commands
cmd_prefix = "Gp",
-- example hook functions
hooks = {
InspectPlugin = function(plugin, params)
print(string.format("Plugin structure:\n%s", vim.inspect(plugin)))
print(string.format("Command params:\n%s", vim.inspect(params)))
end,
-- -- example of making :%GpChatNew a dedicated command which
-- -- opens new chat with the entire current buffer as a context
-- BufferChatNew = function(plugin, _)
-- -- call GpChatNew command in range mode on whole buffer
-- vim.api.nvim_command("%" .. plugin.config.cmd_prefix .. "ChatNew")
-- end,
},
-- directory for storing chat files
chat_dir = os.getenv("HOME") .. "/.local/share/nvim/gp/chats",
-- chat model (string with model name or table with model name and parameters)
chat_model = { model = "gpt-3.5-turbo-16k", temperature = 0.7, top_p = 1 },
-- chat model system prompt
chat_system_prompt = "You are a general AI assistant.",
-- chat user prompt prefix
chat_user_prefix = "🗨:",
-- chat assistant prompt prefix
chat_assistant_prefix = "🤖:",
-- chat topic generation prompt
chat_topic_gen_prompt = "Summarize the topic of our conversation above"
.. " in two or three words. Respond only with those words.",
-- chat topic model (string with model name or table with model name and parameters)
chat_topic_gen_model = "gpt-3.5-turbo-16k",
-- explicitly confirm deletion of a chat file
chat_confirm_delete = true,
-- conceal model parameters in chat
chat_conceal_model_params = true,
-- command prompt prefix for asking user for input
command_prompt_prefix = "🤖 ~ ",
-- command model (string with model name or table with model name and parameters)
command_model = { model = "gpt-3.5-turbo-16k", temperature = 0.7, top_p = 1 },
-- command system prompt
command_system_prompt = "You are an AI that strictly generates pure formated final code, without providing any comments or explanations.",
-- templates
template_selection = "I have the following code from {{filename}}:\n\n```{{filetype}}\n{{selection}}\n```\n\n{{command}}",
template_rewrite = "I have the following code from {{filename}}:\n\n```{{filetype}}\n{{selection}}\n```\n\n{{command}}"
.. "\n\nRespond just with the pure formated final code. !!And please: No ``` code ``` blocks.",
template_command = "{{command}}",
}
...
-- call setup on your config
require("gp").setup(config)
-- shortcuts might be setup here (see Usage > Shortcuts in Readme)
You can extend/override the plugin functionality with your own, by putting functions into config.hooks
.
Hooks have access to everything (see InspectPlugin
example in defaults) and are
automatically registered as commands (GpInspectPlugin
).
The raw plugin text editing method prompt
has six aprameters:
params
is a table passed to neovim user commands,prompt
currently usesrange, line1, line2
to work with rangesparams = { args = "", bang = false, count = -1, fargs = {}, line1 = 1352, line2 = 1352, mods = "", name = "GpChatNew", range = 0, reg = "", smods = { browse = false, confirm = false, emsg_silent = false, hide = false, horizontal = false, keepalt = false, keepjumps = false, keepmarks = false, keeppatterns = false, lockmarks = false, noautocmd = false, noswapfile = false, sandbox = false, silent = false, split = "", tab = -1, unsilent = false, verbose = -1, vertical = false } }
target
specifying where to direct GPT responseM.target = { replace = 0, -- for replacing the selection or the current line append = 1, -- for appending after the selection or the current line prepend = 2, -- for prepending before the selection or the current line enew = 3, -- for writing into the new buffer popup = 4, -- for writing into the popup window }
prompt
- string used similarly as bash/zsh prompt in terminal, when plugin asks for user command to gpt.
- if
nil
, user is not asked to provide input (for specific predefined commands - document this, explain that, write tests ..) - simple
🤖 ~
might be used or you could use different msg to convey info about the method which is called
(🤖 rewrite ~
,🤖 popup ~
,🤖 enew ~
,🤖 inline ~
, etc.)
model
template
-
template of the user message send to gpt
-
string can include variables bellow:
name Description {{filetype}}
filetype of the current buffer {{selection}}
last or currently selected text {{command}}
instructions provided by the user
-
system_template
- See gpt api intro
-
Have ChatGPT experience directly in neovim:
:GpChatNew
- open fresh chat - either empty or with the visual selection or specified range as a context:GpChatFinder
- open a dialog to search through chats:GpChatRespond
- request new gpt response for the current chat:GpChatDelete
- delete the current chat
-
Ask GPT and get response to the specified output:
:GpRewrite
- answer replaces the current line, visual selection or range:GpAppend
- answers after the current line, visual selection or range:GpPrepend
- answers before the current line, selection or range:GpEnew
- answers into new buffer:GpPopup
- answers into pop up window
all these command work either:
- as pure user commands without any other context in normal/insert mode
- with current selection (using whole lines) as a context in visual/Visual mode
- with specified range (such as
%
for the entire current buffer =>:%GpRewrite
)
-
Run your own custom hook commands:
:GpInspectPlugin
- inspect GPT prompt plugin object
There are no default shortcuts to mess with your own config. Bellow are examples for you to adjust or just use directly.
You can use the good old vim.keymap.set
and paste the following after require("gp").setup(conf)
call
(or anywhere you keep shortcuts if you want them at one place).
local function keymapOptions(desc)
return {
noremap = true,
silent = true,
nowait = true,
desc = "GPT prompt " .. desc,
}
end
-- Chat commands
vim.keymap.set({"n", "i"}, "<C-g>c", "<cmd>GpChatNew<cr>", keymapOptions("New Chat"))
vim.keymap.set({"n", "i"}, "<C-g>f", "<cmd>GpChatFinder<cr>", keymapOptions("Chat Finder"))
vim.keymap.set({"n", "i"}, "<C-g><C-g>", "<cmd>GpChatRespond<cr>", keymapOptions("Chat Respond"))
vim.keymap.set({"n", "i"}, "<C-g>d", "<cmd>GpChatDelete<cr>", keymapOptions("Chat Delete"))
-- Prompt commands

vim.keymap.set({"n", "i"}, "<C-g>p", "<cmd>GpPopup<cr>", keymapOptions("Popup"))
-- Visual commands
vim.keymap.set("v", "<C-g>c", ":<C-u>'<,'>GpChatNew<cr>", keymapOptions("Visual Chat New"))

vim.keymap.set("v", "<C-g>p", ":<C-u>'<,'>GpPopup<cr>", keymapOptions("Visual Popup"))
Or go more fancy by using which-key.nvim plugin:

require("which-key").register({

p = { ":<C-u>'<,'>GpPopup<cr>", "Visual Popup" },

-- ...

There is already a bunch of similar plugins which served as sources of inspiration
- thmsmlr/gpt.nvim
- + nicely implemented streaming response from OpenAI API
- + later added chat sessions
- - a lots of things are hard coded
- - undo isn't handled properly
- - originally considered forking it, but it has no licence so far
- dpayne/CodeGPT.nvim
- + templating mechanism to combine user input selection and so on for gpt query
- - doesn't use streaming (one has to wait for the whole answer to show up)
- jackMort/ChatGPT.nvim
- most popular at the moment but overcomplicated for my taste
(its like a GUI over the vim itself and I'd like to stay inside vim 🙂)
