AUR package needed

[Zeioth]

A similar project (gpt-chatbot-cli) is on the AUR. But not this one.

[Zeioth]

I've created the AUR package myself: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/chatgpt-shell-cli-git If anyone want to test it, please write here any issue you may find.

I'm only copying the file chatgpt.sh to /usr/local/bin/chatgpt, which seems to be the bare minimum to have it working.

[Zeioth]

I've also created an stable AUR package, pointing to main's current head, so we can keep experimenting safely on -git package.

Installed the git version and it doesn't change open to xdg-open for images

[Zeioth]

@se7en-x230 yeah atm it only installs chatgpt.sh. It doesn't use install.sh.

I undersand that what install.sh does here

# Replace open image command with xdg-open for linux systems
if [[ "$OSTYPE" == "linux-gnu"* ]] || [[ "$OSTYPE" == "freebsd"* ]]; then
  sed -i 's/open "\${image_url}"/xdg-open "\${image_url}"/g' '/usr/local/bin/chatgpt'
fi

Is to say xdg-open to open images with chatgpt by default? If that is the case I don't thing we should do that. We should avoid changing user defaults or important files unless strictly necessary.

[Zeioth]

Also I don't currently own gpt4 so I cannot test is we have sixel support, which is the standard for displaying graphics on terminal (supported by foot, and other modern terminals)

@Zeioth Thank you very much for submitting the AUR package! 🙏 Do you think there's a way to perform the substitution of open to xdg-open in the PKGBUILD file?

[Zeioth]

@0xacx after double checking it I understand that sed command is actually making a substitution in the chatgpt script. Ok I just added the change, you can check it out here.

@Zeioth That is awesome! 🔥
I think you can remove the if [[ "$OSTYPE" == "linux-gnu"* ]] || [[ "$OSTYPE" == "freebsd"* ]]; then and closing fi because AUR packages would only run on Linux. What do you think? I can't test it on my mac, but does it run correctly on your machine? @se7en-x230 could you please re-install and confirm that it works as expected?

Thank you both very much! This is greatly appreciated 🙏

[Zeioth]

That's a good point. I removed the if condition. Also now we install the LICENSE file in the right directory.

I just reinstalled it after clearing cache and still works fine. Please feel free to double check!

EDIT: Also if you or someone else wants to be added as co-maintainer of the AUR package, please let me know your AUR nickname.

Consider adding the arch linux installation method to the README

paru -S chatgpt-shell-cli

[0xacx]

Great! 👍
One last thing, the license file wouldn't need execute permissions since it's not an executable file. So just read and write for the owner and read for anyone else I think would be a bit better (replace with -Dm644).

Does installation work with pacman package manager as well?

[Zeioth]

Ok I gave LICENSE a permission level of 644.

• no, pacman is only used when installing packages from the official arch repositories.
• for 3º pary packages like this, we use AUR (Arch User Repository). paru, yay, or some other AUR helper is necessary to install AUR packages. Arch does not provide any by default. Users decide the one they wanna use.

Ok, right! Thanks for the work on PKGBUILD! 🙏 I think we can call this done now and close this issue! 🎉 ✌️
