Generative AI Chat App

Version

This project is a Graphical User Interface (GUI) chat application built using Tkinter that allows users to interact with a large language model powered by Google Generative AI. The application provides a user-friendly interface for engaging in conversations with the AI and exploring its capabilities.

Features

  • Interactive Chat: Users can type messages and receive responses from the AI model in real-time.
  • Emoji Support: A button is available to insert emojis into chat messages, enhancing expressiveness.
  • Scrolled Text History: The chat history is displayed in a scrollable text box, allowing users to review past conversations.
  • Safety Measures: The AI model is configured with safety settings to mitigate potential risks of harmful content.
  • Exit Commands: Users can type "exit" or "quit" to terminate the chat session.

New Features and Changes

  • Dynamic Subject Naming: Automatically names session files based on the chat subject.
  • Auto-Saving: Chat messages are saved automatically without the need for explicit commands.
  • Time Stamping: Each message in the chat history is timestamped with the current time.
  • Time Box Display: A small box displays the current time during the chat session.
  • Visual Indication of AI Replies: AI-generated responses are displayed in a different color for easy differentiation.
  • Emoji Selection: Users can insert emojis into their messages using a pop-up emoji selection menu.
  • Improved Emoji Button: The emoji button in the input box offers a more intuitive way to access emojis.
  • Graceful Shutdown: Closes the visual window and terminates the Python process upon exiting the chat.
  • Environmental Configuration: Utilizes a .env file to manage API keys securely.
  • Enhanced Error Handling: Error messages are displayed in a distinct color for better visibility.
  • Dependency Management: New dependency added: python-dotenv for managing environment variables.

Technologies Used

  • Python: The primary programming language used for the application.
  • Tkinter: A Python library for creating graphical user interfaces.
  • google-generativeai: The official Python client library for interacting with Google Generative AI models.
  • python-dotenv: A Python library for managing environment variables.

Installation Instructions

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/MdSagorMunshi/GenerativeAIChatApp.git
  2. Change Directory

    cd GenerativeAIChatApp
  3. Install the required libraries:

    pip install -r requirements.txt
  4. Obtain a Google Generative AI API Key: Follow the instructions on the Google Generative AI Studio to obtain an API key. Once you have the API key, create a file named .env in your project directory and add the following line to it:

    API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY_HERE
    

    Replace YOUR_API_KEY_HERE with your actual API key. This file will securely store your API key and ensure it is not exposed in your code.

  5. Verify the Model Name:
    Ensure that the model_name variable in the code is set to a valid Generative AI model name. You can find available models and their names in the Google Generative AI documentation.

  6. Run the application:

    python chat_gui.py 

Usage Instructions

  1. Launch the application: Run the chat_gui.py file.
  2. Start chatting: Type your messages into the entry box and press Enter to send them to the AI.
  3. Use emojis: Click the emoji button to select and insert emojis into your messages.
  4. Review chat history: Scroll through the text box to see previous messages.
  5. Exit the chat: Type "exit" or "quit" and press Enter to end the conversation and close the application.
