ai-prompt-coder

Introduction

ai-prompt-coder uses ChatGPT to write code based on .prompt files. It will build a prompt based on a set of rules applied to your directory structure. All rules are defined in .promptRules. Please see /examples for existing rules you can utilise.

Usage

Setting up

• Install

  yarn add ai-prompt-coder
  

• Create a .promptRules in your root directory. A basic rule that will be applied to all generated prompts looks as follows:

  -- src/**/*.prompt
  Project written in TypeScript with: React.

• To exclude files, add them to an array after the glob pattern:

  -- **/components/**/*.tsx.prompt ["**/*.stories.tsx.prompt"]
  Rule applied to all components, excluding StoryBook examples.

A full example may look as follows:

-- src/**/*.prompt

This project uses: TypeScript, React, MUI, lodash, styled-components.

-- **/components/**/*.tsx.prompt ["**/*.stories.tsx.prompt"]

Follow the approach shown in this example:

```tsx
export interface IMyComponentProps {...}
export const MyComponent: React.FC<IMyComponentProps> = ({ ... }) => { ... }
```

No default export.
Include a class comment explaining the purpose of the component.
Use existing MUI components if necessary.

-- **/components/**/*.stories.tsx.prompt

Storybook example demonstrating all props.
Follow the approach shown in this example:

```ts
import React from "react";
import type { Meta, StoryFn } from "@storybook/react";
import { action } from "@storybook/addon-actions";
import { MyComponent, IMyComponentProps } from "./MyComponent";

const meta: Meta = {
  title: "Example/MyComponent",
  component: MyComponent,
  parameters: {
    layout: "centered"
  },
  argTypes: {
    onClick: { action: "clicked" }
  }
};

export default meta;

const Template: StoryFn<IMyComponentProps> = (args) => <MyComponent {...args} />;

export const Default = Template.bind({});
Default.args = {
  onClick: action("digit-click")
};
```

-- **/helpers/*.ts.prompt

Do not include any examples or tests in the code.
Ensure the function is exported.
Add a comment describing the purpose of the function.

-- **/helpers/**/*.spec.ts.prompt

Use Jest for testing.

Generating files

To generate a file:

• Create a file called _prompts/OUTPUT_NAME.prompt. For example, create Timer.tsx.prompt with the following:

  Create a component named Timer that displays the ellapsed time since started.

• Run using npx ai-prompt-coder. This will produce a Timer.tsx file.

• If you are unhappy with the file, delete and run again.

• You can embed other files using the markup [[./relative-path/filename]]. For example:

  Create a component that displays an Image [[../types/Image.ts]].
