Our API provides fast, secure, and scalable file management without the hassle of maintaining infrastructure.

💻 TUTORIAL OF THE DAY

Part 2 - Enhancing Repository Descriptions with OpenAI

Imagine stumbling across an AI-powered GitHub repository with a dull description like "A library for AI models in JavaScript." Now, imagine transforming it into "Empower your projects with this state-of-the-art JavaScript AI library, crafted for developers who dream big!" In this tutorial, we’ll integrate OpenAI into your Node.js GitHub crawler to rewrite repository descriptions into persuasive, attention-grabbing summaries.

Step 1: Setting Up OpenAI

npm install openai dotenv

Step 2: Rewriting Descriptions with OpenAI

Enhance your descriptions using OpenAI’s text-davinci-003 model

require('dotenv').config();
const { Configuration, OpenAIApi } = require('openai');

const configuration = new Configuration({
    apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY,
});
const openai = new OpenAIApi(configuration);

const rewriteDescription = async (description) => {
    try {
        const response = await openai.createCompletion({
            model: 'text-davinci-003',
            prompt: `Rewrite this description to make it more engaging: "${description}"`,
            max_tokens: 100,
            temperature: 0.7,
        });
        return response.data.choices[0].text.trim();
    } catch {
        return description; // Fallback to original description
    }
};

Step 3: Enhance Your GitHub Crawler

Integrate the rewriteDescription function into your crawler:

const fetchRepositories = async () => {
    const repositories = [];
    const response = await axios.get(SEARCH_URL);
    const $ = cheerio.load(response.data);

    $('.repo-list-item').each(async (_, element) => {
        const repoName = $(element).find('a').text().trim();
        const repoUrl = `https://github.com${$(element).find('a').attr('href')}`;
        const repoDescription = $(element).find('.mb-1').text().trim();

        const enhancedDescription = await rewriteDescription(repoDescription);
        repositories.push({ name: repoName, url: repoUrl, description: enhancedDescription });
    });

    return repositories;
};

Your terminal will display AI-enhanced repository descriptions. For example:

  • Before: "A library for AI models in JavaScript."

  • After: "Elevate your AI game with this next-gen JavaScript library for cutting-edge models!"
