Gemini Code
Disclaimer: This README.md was created by gemini-code and this project was developed rapidly and currently lacks comprehensive testing, CI/CD pipelines, and other quality-of-life features common in mature projects.
This repository contains the Gemini Code CLI tool.
Setup
- Get a Gemini API Key: Obtain your API key from Google AI Studio: https://aistudio.google.com/app/apikey
- Set Environment Variable: Set the
GEMINI_API_KEY
environment variable to your obtained key. You can do this temporarily in your current shell session:
Or add it to your shell's configuration file (likeexport GEMINI_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"
~/.bashrc
,~/.zshrc
, or~/.profile
) for persistence:
Replaceecho 'export GEMINI_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"' >> ~/.bashrc # Or your preferred shell config file source ~/.bashrc # Reload the config
"YOUR_API_KEY"
with your actual key.
Building
To build the entire project, including the CLI package, run the following command from the root directory:
npm install
npm run build
This command installs dependencies and then runs the build script defined in the root package.json
, which in turn executes the build scripts in all workspaces (including packages/cli
).
Running
To start the Gemini Code CLI, run the following command from the root directory:
npm start
This command executes the start
script defined in the root package.json
, which specifically targets and runs the start
script within the gemini-code-cli
workspace.
Debugging
To debug the CLI application using VS Code:
- Start the CLI in debug mode from the root directory:
This command runsnpm run debug --workspace=gemini-code-cli
node --inspect-brk dist/gemini.js
within thepackages/cli
directory, pausing execution until a debugger attaches. - In VS Code, use the "Attach" launch configuration (found in
.vscode/launch.json
). This configuration is set up to attach to the Node.js process listening on port 9229, which is the default port used by--inspect-brk
.
Alternatively, you can use the "Launch Program" configuration in VS Code if you prefer to launch the currently open file directly, but the "Attach" method is generally recommended for debugging the main CLI entry point.
Formatting
To format the code in this project, run the following command from the root directory:
npm run format
This command uses Prettier to format the code according to the project's style guidelines.
