# BingGPT
_BingGPT command line client, written in rust_
---
[中文说明](README_CN.md)
This project is a rust language implementation of [EdgeGPT](https://github.com/acheong08/EdgeGPT), all the hard stuff was done by the original project author `acheong08`, I just wrote it in rust, all credit goes to him, thanks for the hard work big guy!
## Install
```bash
cargo install binggpt-cli
```
```bash
# use `binggpt`
binggpt
```
Or download the binary from the [release page](https://github.com/jlvihv/BingGPT/releases).
## Requirements
You must have a Microsoft account with access to BingGPT.
## Configuration (required)
- for [Chrome](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/cookie-editor/hlkenndednhfkekhgcdicdfddnkalmdm) or [Firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookie-editor/) to install the `cookie-editor` extension
- Go to [bing.com](https://www.bing.com) and log in to your Microsoft account
- Open the extension
- Click "Export" in the bottom right corner (this will save your cookies to the clipboard)
- Create or write your cookies to the `~/.config/bing-cookies.json` file
## Usage
> First you need to perform the configuration steps above.
If you have a rust development environment, first you need to clone the code, go to this project directory, and run `cargo run`.
If you want to compile it into binaries, you can run `cargo build --release`. After the compilation is done, you can find the compiled binaries in the `target/release` directory.
If you want to install it to the system, you can run `cargo install --path binggpt-cli`, so you can easily use the `binggpt` command anywhere.
After starting the program, when you see `You:`, it means you can start a conversation with BingGPT, press enter twice to send a message.
In the conversation, you can use the following command.
- `:q` `:quit` `:exit` to quit the program
- `:more` to enter multi-line mode, where you can safely type more text, or paste text from the clipboard
- `:end` exit multi-line mode
## Possible problems
### For Windows10 users
see [#3](https://github.com/jlvihv/BingGPT/issues/3)
Ensure that users running Windows 10 use this command in their terminal, with administrator privileges, to enable text colors in the terminal.
```powershell
reg add HKCU\Console /v VirtualTerminalLevel /t REG_DWORD /d 1
```
## As a rust crate
```bash
cargo add binggpt
cargo add utf8-slice
cargo add tokio --features full
```
```rust
use std::io::{stdout, Write};
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
let mut bing = binggpt::Bing::new("~/.config/bing-cookies.json")
.await
.unwrap();
// send message
bing.send_msg("hello").await.unwrap();
// receive message
let mut index = 0;
// loop until the chat is done
loop {
if bing.is_done() {
break;
}
let Some(answer) = bing.recv_text().await.unwrap() else{
continue;
};
// print the new part of the answer
if !answer.is_empty() {
print!("{}", utf8_slice::from(&answer, index));
if stdout().flush().is_err() {
println!("Warning: Failed to flush stdout");
};
index = utf8_slice::len(&answer);
}
}
}
```
