Introduction to Code2Prompt
Code2Prompt is a Command Line Interface (CLI) tool designed to streamline the process of converting codebases into well-structured prompts for large language models (LLMs). By analyzing the source tree and leveraging prompt templating, it automates the task of gathering information about your code and formatting it for AI tools.
Key Features:
- Automatic Code Processing: Converts codebases of any size into readable prompts without manual effort.
- Smart Filtering: Include/exclude files based on glob patterns while respecting .gitignore rules.
- Flexible Templating: Customize prompts using Handlebars templates for various use cases.
- Token Tracking: Monitor token usage to stay within LLM context limits.
- Git Integration: Incorporate diffs, logs, and branch comparisons directly into prompts.
- Developer Experience Enhancements: Automatic clipboard copy, line numbers, and organized file structures for easier access.
Benefits:
- Efficiency: Eliminates the tedious manual process of copying files and formatting code, allowing developers to focus on extracting insights from AI models.
- Seamless Integration: The core library can be easily integrated into other applications, enhancing flexibility for users.
- Ease of Use: Designed for straightforward CLI interactions; prompts can be generated directly from your codebase with minimal configuration.
