ChatGPT Alternative Built With Superpowers - ChatSonic ROR Gem

In today's fast-paced digital world, language generation has become a powerful tool for automating tasks, enhancing user experiences, and driving innovation in various industries.

In this blog, we will dive into the world of "chatsonic" and explore how this https://rubygems.org/gems/chatsonic Rails Gem can enable you to leverage the power of LLM ChatGPT in your Ruby on Rails applications. We will discuss the features, functionalities as well as provide examples and code snippets to demonstrate how it can be integrated into your Ruby on rails applications.

On a high level ChatSonic Gem is a wrapper around the writesonic OpenAPI that can be easily integrated into your rails application by installing this Gem.

Main Repository: https://github.com/SamalaSumanth0262/chatsonic

STEP 1: Installing Gem

In your rails root directory, run this command gem install chatsonic

STEP 2: Get the API Key

Now head to https://docs.writesonic.com/reference/finding-your-api-key, Create an account for first time users. please find the image below for reference

STEP 3: Initialising and Configuring the Gem

Add gem 'chatsonic', '~> 1.0', '>= 1.0.2' to GemFile or Simply run gem install chatsonic

Now It's time to configure the gem with the help of API-KEY obtained from Step 1.

Create a file chatsonic.rb in initialisers folder which is right place to configure gem. Insert the below small chunk of code.

ChatSonic.configure do |config|
  config.access_token = "****" #required, Always fetch from ENV file, ENV["API-KEY"]
  config.uri_base: "https://api.writesonic.com/", # Optional, Used to override the default
  config.request_timeout: 240 # Optional, Used to override the default ( Just in case if the prompt take more 120 seconds)
end

Or You can directly initialise by creating a instance of the gem like below

client = ChatSonic::Client.new # if you have already initialised
# OR
client = ChatSonic::Client.new(access_token: "Your API Key")

STEP 4: Getting the Prompt

Now from anywhere in your rails application by using below chunk of the code you can get the PROMPT

response = client.prompt(parameters: {
    enable_google_results: true,
    enable_memory: true,
    input_text: 'Hi'
  })

enable_google_results: Gives your responses based on the data backed by google.

enable_memory: Stores all the previous conversations

input_text: Your prompt.

This will give prompt response "Hello! How may i assist you today ?"

Hurray !!! Thats it. Now you have integrated this Gem into your Rails Application.
