Function calling doesn't work and raises 400 InvalidArgument exception.

xiaokang00010 commented 3 days ago

Description of the bug:

My app ran well with function calling 12 days ago. However, when I tried to use this app today, Gemini API raised an InvalidArgument exception. And I managed to figure out it will only occurs when tools argument is not empty.

Actual vs expected behavior:

It raises an InvalidArgument exception. The expected behaviour is that it should return a normal response like it used to.

Any other information you'd like to share?

Minimal reproducible example:

import models, chatModel
import tools

def calculate(expression: str) -> int | float | str:
    """

        expression (str): The expression to evaluate.

    Returns:
        int | float | str: The result of the expression.
    """
    return eval(expression, globals(), locals())

def time() -> str:
    """

    Returns:
        str: The current time in HH:MM:SS format.

    return tools.TimeProvider()

m = genai.GenerativeModel(model_name=config.USE_MODEL, system_instruction='You are an AI chatbot named Yoi.', safety_settings=models.MODEL_SAFETY_SETTING, generation_config={
            'temperature': 0.9,
        }, tools=[calculate, time])

s = m.start_chat()
print(s.send_message("Hello?"))

I found that it is directly related to the time function in my example. I don't know why, but if I add time into tools list, it just won't work. However, if there's only calculate function. It works again.

xiaokang00010 commented 3 days ago

Okay, I found that it can correctly invoke tool function if there's any param in the function declaration like the code in below. But why is that?

def getTime(arg: str) -> str:
    """
    Get the current time.

    Args:
        arg (str): random string

    Returns:
        str: The current time
    """
    return '1970-01-01 00:00:00'
