Quick Start
The sample-chatbot-with-sonnylabs.py script demonstrates how to call the SonnyLabs API. It's a simple chat application that requests user input, sends this to the SonnyLabs analysis API, and prints the results of the analysis.
The following steps walk you through setting up and running the script.
Setup
- Create an application folder.
mkdir sonnylabs-quickstart
- Create a virtual environment in this folder.
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
- Install the SonnyLabs library.
pip install git+https://github.com/SonnyLabs/sonnylabs_py
- Install the python-dotenv library to load the necessary secrets from a
.env file.
pip install python-dotenv
- Create a
.env file and set the API token and analysis id created earlier.
SONNYLABS_API_TOKEN=[your_api_token]
SONNYLABS_ANALYSIS_ID=[your_analysis_id]
- Download the
sample-chatbot-with-sonnylabs.py file.
curl -sO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SonnyLabs/sonnylabs_py/refs/heads/main/sample-chatbot-with-sonnylabs.py
- Run the script:
python sample-chatbot-with-sonnylabs.py
The script will prompt you for user input and display the results of the analysis.
