This project contains a web service that will accept HTTP GET requests at http://localhost:8080/ai/simple.

There is optional message parameter whose default value is "Tell me a joke".

The response to the request is from the OpenAI ChatGPT Service.

Before using the AI commands, make sure you have a developer token from OpenAI.

Create an account at OpenAI Signup and generate the token at API Keys.

The Spring AI project defines a configuration property named spring.ai.openai.api-key that you should set to the value of the API Key obtained from openai.com.

Exporting an environment variable is one way to set that configuration property.

export SPRING_AI_OPENAI_API_KEY=<INSERT KEY HERE>

Setting the API key is all you need to run the application. However, you can find more information on setting started in the Spring AI reference documentation section on OpenAI Chat.

./mvnw spring-boot:run

To get a response to the default request of "Tell me a joke"

curl localhost:8080/ai/simple

A sample response is

Sure, here's a classic one for you:

Why don't scientists trust atoms?

Because they make up everything!

Now using the message request parameter

curl --get  --data-urlencode 'message=Tell me a joke about a cow.' localhost:8080/ai/simple 

A sample response is

Why did the cow go to space?

Because it wanted to see the mooooon!

Alternatively use the httpie client

http localhost:8080/ai/simple message=='Tell me a joke about a cow.'
