Getting Started 🚀

Follow these instructions to get a copy of RepoGPT up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Prerequisites 🛠️

Before starting, ensure you have the following installed:

Node.js (v18 or higher)
pnpm (preferred package manager)
Docker (for database setup)
PostgreSQL with the pgvector extension
OpenAI API Key (for AI functionalities)

Installation Guide 📦

1. Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/mbarinov/repogpt.git
cd repogpt

2. Install Dependencies

pnpm install

3. Set Up PostgreSQL with pgvector

To leverage AI capabilities, RepoGPT uses PostgreSQL with the pgvector extension. Use Docker to set up the database:

docker run -d \
  --name pgvector \
  -e POSTGRES_USER=postgres \
  -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=yourpassword \
  -e POSTGRES_DB=repogpt \
  -p 5432:5432 \
  ankane/pgvector

4. Configure Environment Variables

Create a .env file in the project root directory and set the following variables:

DATABASE_URL=postgresql://postgres:yourpassword@localhost:5432/repogpt

5. Initialize the Database Schema

Use Prisma to push the necessary database schema:

npx prisma migrate dev

6. Build and Start the Application

To build and start the app, run:

pnpm build
pnpm start

7. Access the Application

Once running, the app will be available at http://localhost:3000. You can now start managing and interacting with your repositories via RepoGPT.

Usage 📝

Import Your First Repository

Use the following command to import a repository:

Set the OpenAI API key and Github Access Token. http://localhost:3000/settings
Navigate to the Repositories section. http://localhost:3000/repositories
Fill in the repository URL, repository branch name and click on the Import button.
The repository will be imported and available for interaction in a few minutes.

Interact with Your Repository

Navigate to the Chat section to start a conversation with your codebase.
Ask questions like "How is the authentication implemented?" or "List all the endpoints in the API."
