[Feature Request]: Update Dependencies for `llama-index-llms-gemini

[arthurbrenno]

Feature Description

I am encountering a dependency conflict when attempting to add the llama-index-llms-gemini package to my project and I think some developers might have this problem too. The current version constraints for llama-index-llms-gemini are incompatible with the latest versions of llama-index-core and google-generativeai that some projects might rely on.

---

Current Issue:
When running the command:

uv add llama-index-llms-gemini

I receive the following error:

No solution found when resolving dependencies for split (python_full_version == '3.10.*' and platform_python_implementation != 'PyPy' and platform_system == 'Darwin' and sys_platform != 'linux'):
  ...
  And because your project depends on llama-index-core>=0.11.14 and llama-index-llms-gemini, we can conclude that your project's requirements are unsatisfiable.

Root Cause:

• llama-index-llms-gemini Versions:
  Available versions (0.0.1 to 0.3.5) have dependencies that conflict with:

  • llama-index-core >=0.11.14
  • google-generativeai >=0.8.2

• Dependency Constraints:

  • llama-index-llms-gemini <0.3.0 depends on llama-index-core <0.11.0.
  • llama-index-llms-gemini >=0.1.9 depends on google-generativeai >=0.5.2,<0.6.0.
  • My project requires llama-index-core >=0.11.14 and google-generativeai >=0.8.2.

These constraints make it impossible to satisfy all dependencies simultaneously, preventing the successful addition of llama-index-llms-gemini.

---

Proposed Enhancement:
Update the llama-index-llms-gemini package to support higher versions of its dependencies, specifically:

1. llama-index-core:

   • Current Constraint: <0.11.0
   • Proposed Update: >=0.11.0 to align with projects using llama-index-core >=0.11.14.

2. google-generativeai:

   • Current Constraint: >=0.5.2,<0.6.0
   • Proposed Update: Expand the upper limit to accommodate >=0.8.2, such as >=0.5.2,<1.0.0.

---

Benefits:

• Improved Compatibility: Allows projects using newer versions of llama-index-core and google-generativeai to integrate llama-index-llms-gemini without dependency conflicts.
• Enhanced Flexibility: Facilitates smoother upgrades and maintenance for projects relying on these packages.
• Broader Adoption: Reduces barriers for developers to use llama-index-llms-gemini in modern environments.

---

Additional Context:
I have verified that other dependencies in my project are compatible with the proposed updates. Ensuring that llama-index-llms-gemini supports these higher versions will greatly enhance its usability and integration within contemporary Python projects.

---

Possible Solutions:

• Update Dependency Specifications:
  Modify the setup.py or equivalent configuration to relax the version constraints for llama-index-core and google-generativeai.

• Semantic Versioning:
  Ensure that the updates follow semantic versioning to indicate compatibility and prevent breaking changes for existing users.

• Testing:
  Provide comprehensive tests to verify that llama-index-llms-gemini functions correctly with the updated dependency versions.

@arthurbrenno here's the current deps for the gemini llm

It already specifies llama-index-core = "^0.11.0"

Probably can loosen the generative-ai dependency, assuming that google hasn't made many breaking changes
