Events
The GPTAssistant extension is event-driven, providing immediate feedback that allows you to build responsive UIs that react to the AI’s activities in real-time.
-
The extension boasts a comprehensive suite of events (e.g., AssistantCreated, ThreadCreated, RunCompletedAndMessagesFetched, FileUploaded, ErrorOccurred, StreamTextDelta, StreamTextMessageCompleted, etc.).
-
Consult the blocks palette in Kodular for a complete list of events and their specific parameters. Understanding these events is key to creating truly interactive AI applications.
HOW TO USE: Building Your First AI Assistant
Follow these straightforward steps to integrate a powerful AI assistant into your Kodular project.
Step-by-Step: Creating an Assistant
- Initialize the Extension: The First Command
Use the Initialize block and input your unique OpenAI API key. This step is non-negotiable.
Example:
- Define Your Assistant’s Persona
Decide on a clear name for your assistant.
Craft concise instructions that tell the assistant its role and how it should behave.
Example:
Name: “KodularProHelper”
Instructions: “You are an expert AI assistant specializing in Kodular development. Provide clear, concise, and helpful advice on blocks, components, and design.”
- Select the Right AI Model & Tools
Within the CreateAssistant block, use the model dropdown to choose an OpenAI model (e.g., GPT-4o).
Determine if your assistant needs capabilities like code_interpreter or file_search and add them as a list to the tools parameter.
- Bring Your Assistant to Life: Call CreateAssistant
Drag out the CreateAssistant block and plug in all the details you’ve prepared.
Example:
- Listen for Success: Handle the AssistantCreated Event
Use the when GPTAssistant.AssistantCreated event block.
Crucially, capture and store the assistantId provided by this event. You’ll need it for all future interactions.
Step-by-Step: Creating a Conversation & Streaming a Response
- Initiate the Conversation: Call CreateThread
- Use the CreateThread block. This creates a new conversation container.
- Capture the Thread: Handle the ThreadCreated Event
Use the when GPTAssistant.ThreadCreated event block to get and store the threadId.
- Send the User’s Input: Add a Message to the Thread
Use the AddMessageToThread block, providing the threadId, setting the role to “user”, and inputting the user’s message.
- Engage the Assistant with Streaming: Call CreateRunAndManage
Use the CreateRunAndManage block, providing the threadId and assistantId.
Crucially, set streamEnabled to true.
- Catch the AI’s Response in Real-Time: Handle Streaming Events
This is key for a live chat feel. Use the streaming events to get the response as it’s generated.
when GPTAssistant.StreamTextDelta: Delivers small chunks (textDelta) of the message. Append these to a Label to create a “live typing” effect.
when GPTAssistant.StreamTextMessageCompleted: Fires when the complete message has been streamed.
