What Hacker News says
2 sourcesShow HN: Astra: The Command Line App That Connects You to ChatGPT
Hey everyone,
We are Steven and Mansur, we recently created a terminal application called Astra, which allows you to chat and connect with OpenAI's GPT language model from your command line.
You can find the code and instructions for installing and running Astra on GitHub: https://github.com/smallulator/terminalAI
To use Astra, you'll need to have Ruby 2.7 or later installed on your machine, as well as a few Ruby modules (net/http, uri, json, and pry). Once you've cloned the repository and added your OpenAI API key to the api_key.txt file, you can run the astra command and start chatting with the GPT model.
We built Astra because we are software engineers and most of our time we spent on the terminal. It is so much easier to use ChatGPT from the terminal instead of having to navigate to the webapp.
If you're interested in checking out Ast

ra or contributing to the project, we'd love to hear your feedback and suggestions. You can find our contact information on the GitHub page.
Thanks for reading, and happy chatting!
