OptimizeIt

OptimizeIt is a tool that is meant to help you Optimize your code. You simply run this command-line application and give it a source code file name which it then optimizes for peak performance and readability.

If you'd like to see more, here is a link to a thorough Demo.

How to use

You can use some of the examples that already exist:

optimizeit examples/main.cpp
optimizeit examples/main.cpp examples/main.py

Or you can run it using one of your own files placed in the root directory, or any other directory you might make:

optimizeit test.py
optimizeit test.py examples/main.cpp

or

optimizeit newDirectory/index.html
optimizeit newDirectory/index.html styles.css examples/main.py

Different Flags

OptimizeIt supports several flags:

Version info

This flag prints the current version of OptimizeIt and the name of the tool, usage:

optimizeit --version
optimizeit -v

HTML

This is a great feature which generates a changes.html html file in the output directory, displaying side-by-side the before and after of each processed file, usage:

optimizeit file1 --html
optimizeit file1 file2 --html

Markdown

This is a nifty feature, where optimizeit creates a changes.md file for you in the output directory, displaying the before and after of every file provided after execution, usage:

optimizeit file1 --markdown
optimizeit file1 file2 --markdown
optimizeit file1 -md
optimizeit file1 file2 -md

Output

This creates a file in the output folder containing all the changes, you may provide more than 1 output file per file given, usage:

optimizeit file1 --output file1
optimizeit file1 file2 --output file1 file2
optimizeit file1 -o file1
optimizeit file1 file2 -o file1 file2

Model

This specifies the model name that OptimizeIt uses, you may choose any model name from groq, usage:

optimizeit file1 --model model_name
optimizeit file1 file2 --model model_name
optimizeit file1 -m model_name
optimizeit file1 file2 -m model_name

Temperature

This specifies the temperature of the model that OptimizeIt is using, you may specify values from 0.1 to 2.0 although, the higher the temperature the more hallucinations, usage:

optimizeit file1 --temperature 0.1
optimizeit file1 file2 --temperature 0.1
optimizeit file1 -t 0.1
optimizeit file1 file2 -t 0.1

API Key

This allows you to set your own groq api key for OptimizeIt to use! This can be very helpful with pay-gated models that groq provides, usage:

optimizeit file1 --api-key your_api_key
optimizeit file1 file2 --api-key your_api_key
optimizeit file1 -a your_api_key
optimizeit file1 file2 -a your_api_key

Help

This flag displays all of the details and configurations that OptimizeIt has, usage:

optimizeit --help
optimizeit -h

Token Usage

This flag allows you print the completion token, prompt token, and total token that OptimizeIt is using from your prompt, usage:

optimizeit file1 --token-usage
optimizeit file1 file2 -u

Directory

This flag is very helpful if you want to optimize all files in a given directory, rather than specify them one by one. OptimizeIt will parse through every file that exists in the directory, and if the file can be Optimized, it will optimize it, usage:

optimizeit -d examples
optimizeit --dir ./examples

This can also be conveniently combined with other flags, i.e.:

optimizeit -d examples --html

TOML config

Optimizeit supports reading a .toml config file in the user's home directory to use as option flags when provided.

Create a .optimizeit-config.toml file in the home directory, and provide options to use. Currently supports the following options:

# model <string>: Specify the model name to use
model = "model-name"

# temperature <number>: Set model temperature (0.1 to 2)
temperature = 0.5

# apiKey <string>: Provide your API key
apiKey: "your-api-key"

# output: Specify output file(s) to save changes
output = ["test1.cpp", "test2.cpp", "test3.cpp"]

# markdown <boolean>: Generate a markdown file with all changes
markdown = true

# html <boolean>: Generate an HTML file with all changes
html = true

# tokenUsage <boolean>: Get token usage information
tokenUsage = true

NOTE: apiKey still must be provided either through .env, command-line argument, or .optimizeit-config.toml. The rest are all optional.
