npx bgent
Currently bgent is dependent on Supabase for local development. You can install it with the following command:
npm install bgent
# Select your database adapter
npm install sqlite-vss better-sqlite3 # for sqlite (simple, for local development)
npm install @supabase/supabase-js # for supabase (more complicated but can be deployed at scale)You will need a Supbase account, as well as an OpenAI developer account.
Copy and paste the .dev.vars.example to .dev.vars and fill in the environment variables:
SUPABASE_URL="https://your-supabase-url.supabase.co"
SUPABASE_SERVICE_API_KEY="your-supabase-service-api-key"
OPENAI_API_KEY="your-openai-api-key"You can use SQLite for local development. This is the easiest way to get started with bgent.
import { BgentRuntime, SqliteDatabaseAdapter } from "bgent";
import { Database } from "sqlite3";
const sqliteDatabaseAdapter = new SqliteDatabaseAdapter(new Database(":memory:"));
const runtime = new BgentRuntime({
serverUrl: "https://api.openai.com/v1",
token: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY, // Can be an API key or JWT token for your AI services
databaseAdapter: sqliteDatabaseAdapter,
// ... other options
});First, you will need to install the Supabase CLI. You can install it using the instructions here.
Once you have the CLI installed, you can run the following commands to set up a local Supabase instance:
supabase initsupabase startYou can now start the bgent project with npm run dev and it will connect to the local Supabase instance by default.
NOTE: You will need Docker installed for this to work. If that is an issue for you, use the Supabase Cloud Setup instructions instead below).
This library uses Supabase as a database. You can set up a free account at supabase.io and create a new project.
- Step 1: On the Subase All Projects Dashboard, select “New Project”.
- Step 2: Select the organization to store the new project in, assign a database name, password and region.
- Step 3: Select “Create New Project”.
- Step 4: Wait for the database to setup. This will take a few minutes as supabase setups various directories.
- Step 5: Select the “SQL Editor” tab from the left navigation menu.
- Step 6: Copy in your own SQL dump file or optionally use the provided file in the bgent directory at: "src/supabase/db.sql". Note: You can use the command "supabase db dump" if you have a pre-exisiting supabase database to generate the SQL dump file.
- Step 7: Paste the SQL code into the SQL Editor and hit run in the bottom right.
- Step 8: Select the “Databases” tab from the left navigation menu to verify all of the tables have been added properly.
Once you've set up your Supabase project, you can find your API key by going to the "Settings" tab and then "API". You will need to set the SUPABASE_URL and SUPABASE_SERVICE_API_KEY environment variables in your .dev.vars file.
While bgent uses ChatGPT 3.5 by default, you can use a local model by setting the serverUrl to a local endpoint. The LocalAI project is a great way to run a local model with a compatible API endpoint.
const runtime = new BgentRuntime({
serverUrl: process.env.LOCALAI_URL,
token: process.env.LOCALAI_TOKEN, // Can be an API key or JWT token for your AI service
// ... other options
});npm run dev # start the server
npm run shell # start the shell in another terminal to talk to the default agent
import { BgentRuntime, SupabaseDatabaseAdapter, SqliteDatabaseAdapter } from "bgent";
const sqliteDatabaseAdapter = new SqliteDatabaseAdapter(new Database(":memory:"));
// You can also use Supabase like this
// const supabaseDatabaseAdapter = new SupabaseDatabaseAdapter(
// process.env.SUPABASE_URL,
// process.env.SUPABASE_SERVICE_API_KEY)
// ;
const runtime = new BgentRuntime({
serverUrl: "https://api.openai.com/v1",
token: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY, // Can be an API key or JWT token for your AI services
databaseAdapter: sqliteDatabaseAdapter,
actions: [
/* your custom actions */
],
evaluators: [
/* your custom evaluators */
],
model: "gpt-3.5-turbo", // whatever model you want to use
embeddingModel: "text-embedding-3-small", // whatever model you want to use
});Bgent is customized through actions and evaluators. Actions are functions that are called when a user input is received, and evaluators are functions that are called when a condition is met at the end of a conversation turn.
An example of an action is wait (the agent should stop and wait for the user to respond) or elaborate (the agent should elaborate and write another message in the conversation).
An example of a evaluator is fact (the agent should summarize the conversation so far).
import { wait, fact } from "bgent";
const runtime = new BgentRuntime({
// ... other options
actions: [wait],
evaluators: [fact],
});
// OR you can register actions and evaluators after the runtime has been created
bgentRuntime.registerAction(wait);
bgentRuntime.registerEvaluator(fact);If you want to add custom data into the context that is sent to the LLM, you can create a Provider and add it to the runtime.
import { type BgentRuntime, type Message, type Provider, type State } from "bgent";
const time: Provider = {
// eslint-disable-next-line @typescript-eslint/no-unused-vars
get: async (_runtime: BgentRuntime, _message: Message, _state?: State) => {
const currentTime = new Date().toLocaleTimeString("en-US");
return "The current time is: " + currentTime;
},
};
const runtime = new BgentRuntime({
// ... other options
providers: [time],
});The BgentRuntime instance has a handleMessage method that can be used to handle user input. The method returns a promise that resolves to the agent's response.
You will need to make sure that the room_id already exists in the database. You can use the Supabase client to create new users and rooms if necessary.
const message = {
user_id: "user-uuid", // Replace with the sender's UUID
content: { content: content }, // The message content
room_id: "room-uuid", // Replace with the room's UUID
};
const response = await bgentRuntime.handleMessage(message);
console.log("Agent response:", response);There are two examples which are set up for cloudflare in src/agents
- The
simpleexample is a simple agent that can be deployed to cloudflare workers - The
cjexample is a more complex agent that has the ability to introduce users to each other. This agent is also deployable to cloudflare workers, and is the default agent in Cojourney.
An external example of an agent is the afbot Aframe Discord Bot, which is a discord bot that uses bgent as a backend. You can find it here.
To deploy an agent to Cloudflare, you can run npm run deploy -- this will by default deploy the cj agent. To deploy your own agent, see the afbot example.
