Maximize Your Reach: Unleashing the Potential of Promote Your Tool
That's the idea behind HeyCLI, a new tool that uses natural language processing and machine learning to translate natural language into terminal commands. HeyCLI is powered by GPT-3, a state-of-the-art language model that can generate realistic and coherent text based on a given prompt. HeyCLI can handle a variety of commands, from simple ones like "create a new folder" or "show me the files in this directory", to more complex ones like "debug the error above" or "install python packages from requirements.txt".
HeyCLI is currently available as a preview version for Linux and MacOS users. To try it out, you need to follow these steps:
- Download the heycli_client.sh file from this GitHub repo: https://github.com/HeyCLI/heyCLI_client
- Source the script in your terminal: source ~/.heycli_client.sh
- Get an API token from this website: https://signup.heycli.com/
- Set the HEYCLI_API_KEY environment variable in your terminal: export HEYCLI_API_KEY=
- Optionally, set up a context for HeyCLI for improved answers and suggestions: hey setup
Once you have done that, you can start using HeyCLI by typing "hey" followed by your natural language query. For example:
- hey create a file named hello.txt
- hey show me the size of this folder
- hey unzip this file
- hey run this python script
- hey debug the error above
HeyCLI will then generate the corresponding terminal command and ask you if you want to execute it. You can type "yes" to confirm, or "no" to cancel. You can also type "help" to get more information about HeyCLI.
HeyCLI is still in development and may not work perfectly for every query. However, it is a promising tool that can save you time and hassle when working with the command line. You can learn more about HeyCLI and its features on its website: https://www.heycli.com/
