Welcome to gptt, a CLI tool that helps you generate GPT-based prompts directly from your source code files. Whether you need help with code reviews, documentation, or other coding tasks, gptt has you covered.

• CLI Integration: Install globally via npm for easy use.
• Custom Output: Use the --out option to save prompts to a file.
• Flexible Inputs: Specify multiple source files with the --in option, including support for glob patterns like src/**/*.ts.
• Smart Optional Files: Include additional files only if referenced in the prompt using the --optional option.
• JSON Configuration: Automatically read and merge defaults from a .gpt.json file.
• Respect .gitignore: Automatically exclude files listed in .gitignore from glob patterns.

1. Install the Tool:

   npm install -g gptt

2. Generate Prompts:

   • Basic Usage:

     gptt "Add an open/close menu button in dashboard.ts, and a test in dashboard.test.ts"

     gptt --in src/file1.ts,src/file2.ts --out prompt.txt "Document these files"

   • With Optional Files:

     gptt --in src/**/*.ts --optional lib/optionalFile.ts "Analyze the code in src and consider lib/optionalFile.ts if necessary"

   • Excluding Specific Files:

     gptt --in src/**/*.ts --exclude src/fileToExclude.ts "Review the codebase"

   • Using .gpt.json:

     // .gpt.json
     {
       "in": ["src/main.ts"],
       "optional": ["src/helpers.ts"],
       "exclude": ["src/fileToExclude.ts"],
       "out": "prompt.txt"
     }

• Boost Productivity: Automate prompt generation to save time.
• Developer Friendly: Easy integration and customization.
• Versatile Configurations: Combine CLI options and JSON configurations.
