Quick Start Dandy!

Installation

Just like most python packages you can easily install Dandy using pip.

pip install dandy

Create a Settings File

You can create a dandy_settings.py file in the root of your project with the following contents.

dandy_settings.py

import os
from pathlib import Path

ALLOW_DEBUG_RECORDING = True

BASE_PATH = Path.resolve(Path(__file__)).parent

LLM_CONFIGS = {
    'DEFAULT': {
        'TYPE': 'openai',
        'HOST': 'https://api.openai.com',
        'PORT': 443,
        'API_KEY': os.getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY'),
        'MODEL': 'gpt-4o-mini',
    }
}

# or

LLM_CONFIGS = {
    'DEFAULT': {
        'TYPE': 'ollama',
        'HOST': os.getenv("OLLAMA_HOST"),
        'PORT': int(os.getenv("OLLAMA_PORT", 11434)),
        'API_KEY': os.getenv("OLLAMA_API_KEY"), 
        'MODEL': 'llama3.1:8b',
    },}

Simple LLM Interaction

Once you have Dandy setup and configured you can easily get started with a simple LLM interaction.

from dandy import Bot

response = Bot().process('What is the capital of Canada?')

print(response.content)

The capital of Canada is Ottawa. Located in the province of Ontario, Ottawa was chosen as the capital by Queen Victoria in 1857, partly to balance the power between English-speaking and French-speaking regions of the country. It serves as the seat of the Canadian government and houses important institutions like Parliament Hill, the Supreme Court, and numerous federal departments and agencies.
