How to use ai_function_generator

1. Prepare your machine

1. Generate your API key from you OpenAI account
2. Set your OpenAI API key as environment variable named OPENAI_API_KEY (tutorials for MacOS, Windows & Linux).

ℹ️ Tip: If .bash_profile doesn't work, try to set the env variable inside .zshrc file

2. Install dependencies

Run the following commands inside your project to install the required libraries (ai_function, ai_function_generator and build_runner):

flutter pub add --dev build_runner
flutter pub add --dev ai_function_generator
flutter pub add ai_function

3. Annotate your classes

Create new file called example_class.dart and inside paste the following code:

import 'package:ai_function/ai_function.dart';

part 'example_class.g.dart';

@AiGenerable()
abstract class ExampleClass {
	/// Locks the screen in portrait up
	@AiFunction()
	void lockInPortraitMode();
}

4. Run the AI generator ✨

Run the following command from the console: flutter pub run build_runner watch --delete-conflicting-outputs

ℹ️ Tip: the watch directive in the previous command will tell to build_runner to remain executed and to generate code every time you save the file. Replace it with build to run the generator only once.

Now you can use the generated class like this:

final myClass = ExampleClassImpl();
myClass.lockInPortraitMode();
