The Google Gemini can be used in creating DEX8 skripts as any npm library.
There are two main approaches to using Google Gemini with Node.js:
- Using the official Gemini API:
This is the recommended approach for most users. Google provides a Node.js SDK (@google/generative-ai) that simplifies interacting with the Gemini API. Here's a general guideline:
a. Set up your project:
Install Node.js and npm: Make sure you have Node.js and npm installed on your system.
Create a project: Create a new directory for your project and initialize it as a Node.js project using npm init.
Install dependencies: Install the @google/generative-ai package using npm install @google/generative-ai.
b. Get your API key:
Visit the Google Cloud Platform Console and create a project if you don't have one already.
Enable the "Generative AI API".
Create an API key and copy it.
c. Configure your application:
Create a .env file in your project root and add the following line, replacing YOUR_API_KEY with your actual key:
GEMINI_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY
d. Use the SDK:
Import the GenerativeAI class from the @google/generative-ai package.
Create a new instance of GenerativeAI with your API key.
Use the available methods like generateText and chat to interact with Gemini.
- Using third-party libraries:
Several third-party libraries provide alternative ways to interact with Gemini, often with additional features or functionalities. Here are some popular options:
google-gemini-ai: This library offers a simplified interface for text-only and text-and-image generation.
node-gemini: This library provides a low-level access to the Gemini API, offering more control and flexibility.

Remember to replace placeholders like YOUR_API_KEY with your actual values and consult the chosen library's documentation for specific usage instructions and examples.
I hope this helps! Feel free to ask if you have any further questions or need more specific guidance.
