QA:

Question: What is url_botname? -> When using a specific bot in Poe, the bot's name in the URL ("https://poe.com/ChatGPT" where 'ChatGPT' is the url_botname) is referred to as url_botname. The relationship between url_botname and other names can be understood as follows:
1. For built-in system bots, the bot's name you see on the Poe website will always be equal to url_botname (but not equal to handle).
2. For self-created bots, url_botname = handle. If a display_name is set, the name you see on the website will be the display_name. Otherwise, it will be the url_botname (handle). However, there are some special cases where the handle does not follow the above pattern, such as when using get_available_bots, where all bot handles are always equal to url_botname.
Question: What is chat_code? -> A bot can have multiple chat windows, and chat_code is the unique identifier for each chat window. The method to retrieve it is similar to url_botname. For example, in "https://poe.com/chat/1234567890", the chat_code is 1234567890.
Question: How to obtain p_b and formkey? ->
1. Obtaining p_b: Open poe.com, use F12 to open the debugging tools, and navigate to the Application tab. In the cookies, there will be a value for p_b.
2. Obtaining formkey: Open poe.com, use F12 to open the debugging tools, and navigate to the Network tab. After having a conversation with a bot, you can see the gql_POST network request, where the request headers contain a separate formkey key-value pair.

Step 1: Import the library and create a Poe_Client object

Now the formkey must be filled in to use the library. Currently, no solution has been found for the "document is not defined" error. ~~If you do not pass the formkey, you need to install Node.js to use the formkey generation feature. Here is the download link: node.js~~

Before using any functionality of the Poe_Client library, you need to import the library and create a Poe_Client object. You need to pass the p_b token and formkey to the constructor of Poe_Client, and then call the create method to initialize it. Here is an example:

from async_poe_client import Poe_Client

# If the creation process takes a long time, you can try setting preload to False
poe_client = await Poe_Client("your p_b token", "your form key").create()
# You can also set a proxy
poe_client = await Poe_Client("your p_b token", "your form key", proxy="socks5://127.0.0.1:7890").create()

In the above code, "your p_b token" and "your form key" should be replaced with your actual p_b token and formkey.

Step 2: Using Poe_Client

Once you have created Poe_Client, you can perform various operations with it.

1. Get subscription information for an account

You can directly access the attribute value.

print(poe_client.subscription)

It returns a dictionary containing the subscription information.

2. Create a bot

Function: create_bot()

Parameters:

handle: str - The name of the new bot. It must be a string and must be unique throughout poe.com. It cannot have the same name as another bot.
prompt: str = "" - The preset personality of the new bot. It is an optional string parameter and defaults to an empty string.
display_name: Optional[str] =None`` - The display name of the new bot. It is an optional string parameter and defaults to None. If not passed, the handle will be displayed.
base_model: str = "chinchilla" - The model used by the new bot. It is an optional string parameter. The options are: "chinchilla" (ChatGPT) or "a2" (Claude). If subscribed, you can use "beaver" (ChatGPT4) or "a2_2" ( Claude-2-100k).
description: str = "" - The description of the new bot. It is an optional string parameter and defaults to an empty string.
intro_message: str = "" - The introduction message of the new bot. It is an optional string parameter. If it is an empty string, the bot will have no introduction message.
prompt_public: bool = True - Whether the preset personality should be publicly visible. It is an optional boolean parameter and defaults to True.
profile_picture_url: Optional[str] =None`` - The URL of the profile picture for the bot. It is an optional string parameter and defaults to None. The library does not support uploading custom images.
linkification: bool = False - Whether the bot should convert certain text in responses into clickable links. It is an optional boolean parameter and defaults to False.
markdown_rendering: bool = True - Whether the bot's responses should enable markdown rendering. It is an optional boolean parameter and defaults to True.
suggested_replies: bool = True - Whether the bot should suggest possible replies after each response. It is an optional boolean parameter and defaults to False.
private: bool = False - Whether the bot should be private. It is an optional boolean parameter and defaults to False.
temperature: Optional[float] =None`` - The temperature of the new bot. It is an optional float parameter and defaults to None.

If you want the new bot to use your own API (you can find the official Poe API integration tutorial here), use the following parameters:

api_bot = False - Whether the bot is your own API bot.
api_key =None`` - The API key for the new bot.
api_url =None`` - The API URL for the new bot.

Return value: None

The simplest usage is as follows, where you only need to pass the handle and prompt to create a bot:

await poe_client.create_bot(handle="testbotcx1", prompt="a ai assistant", p)

3. Modify the settings of a bot

Function: edit_bot()

Parameters:\ Note that url_botname is the original name of the bot, and the other parameters are the values to be modified. If a parameter is not passed, its value will remain unchanged.

url_botname: str - The url_botname of the bot to be modified, must be a string.
handle: Optional[str] - The name of the bot, must be a string and must be unique across the entire poe.com. It cannot be the same as any other bot.
prompt: Optional[str] = "" - The preset personality of the bot, optional string, defaults to an empty string.
display_name: Optional[str] =None`` - The display name of the bot, optional string, defaults to None. If not passed, the handle will be displayed.
base_model: Optional[str] = "chinchilla" - The model used by the bot, optional string. Options include: " chinchilla" (ChatGPT) or "a2" (Claude). If subscribed, you can use "beaver" (ChatGPT4) or "a2_2" (Claude-2-100k).
description: Optional[str] = "" - The description of the bot, optional string, defaults to an empty string.
intro_message: Optional[str] = "" - The introduction message of the bot, optional string. If it is an empty string, the bot will have no introduction message.
prompt_public: Optional[bool] = True - Whether the preset personality should be publicly visible, optional boolean, defaults to True.
profile_picture_url: Optional[str] =None`` - The URL of the profile picture of the bot, optional string, defaults to None. With this library, it is not possible to upload custom images.
linkification: Optional[bool] = False - Whether the bot should convert certain text in the response into clickable links, optional boolean, defaults to False.
markdown_rendering: Optional[bool] = True - Whether the bot's response should enable markdown rendering, optional boolean, defaults to True.
suggested_replies: Optional[bool] = False - Whether the bot should suggest possible replies after each response, optional boolean, defaults to False.
private: Optional[bool] = False - Whether the bot should be private, optional boolean, defaults to False.
temperature: Optional[float] =None`` - The temperature of the bot, optional float, defaults to None.

If you want the new bot to use your own API (you can get the official Poe API integration tutorial here), use the following parameters:

api_bot = False - Whether the bot is your own API bot.
api_key =None`` - The API key for the new bot.
api_url =None`` - The API URL for the new bot.

await poe_client.edit_bot(url_botname="test27gs", handle="test27gs2", prompt="a computer programmer")
