🚀 Features

• ✅ Easy installation & setup (asks for API key automatically)
• ✅ Works in JavaScript/Node.js projects (simple import & use)
• ✅ CLI support for instant responses (no coding required)
• ✅ Supports GPT-3.5, GPT-4, and future models

📌 Installation

Global Installation (Recommended)

npm install -g node-ai-chatbot-cli

This will install the CLI globally and ask for your OpenAI API key during setup.

Local Installation in a Project

npm install node-ai-chatbot-cli

If you install locally, you'll need to configure the API key manually using:

npx node-ai-chatbot-cli setup

⚡ Usage

1️⃣ Using the Chatbot in JavaScript

Import and Initialize the Bot:

const ChatGPTBot = require('node-ai-chatbot-cli');

const bot = new ChatGPTBot();
bot.sendMessage("Hello! How are you?")
    .then(response => console.log("ChatGPT:", response))
    .catch(error => console.error("Error:", error));

Using It with an API Key in Code:

const ChatGPTBot = require('node-ai-chatbot-cli');

const bot = new ChatGPTBot("your-openai-api-key-here");
bot.sendMessage("What is AI?")
    .then(console.log)
    .catch(console.error);

2️⃣ Using the CLI for Quick Responses

Run a quick ChatGPT query directly in the terminal:

npx node-ai-chatbot-cli "Tell me a joke"

Or if installed globally:

chatgpt-chatbot "Who is Elon Musk?"

3️⃣ Updating the API Key

If you need to change your OpenAI API key, run:

npx node-ai-chatbot-cli setup

🔧 Configuration

By default, the API key is stored in a .env file inside the package directory. You can also manually add your key to the .env file:

OPENAI_API_KEY=your-key-here

Alternatively, set it as an environment variable:

export OPENAI_API_KEY=your-key-here
