Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

🤖 🔥 GitHub Repo GPT Scraper 🔥 🤖

Welcome to the GitHub Repo GPT Scraper! This powerful tool is designed to help you effortlessly scrape GitHub repositories in order to create an OpenAI GPT based on your code! It works with either a public GitHub repository URL or a local directory (defaulting to the cwd if no URL is passed).

Getting Started

Prerequisites

  • Node.js installed.

Usage

  • Scrape a GitHub Repository:

    npx github-repo-gpt-scraper --url=https://github.com/user/repo --out=repo.json

    Replace https://github.com/user/repo with the URL of the repository you wish to scrape.

  • Scrape the Current Working Directory:

    npx github-repo-gpt-scraper --out=repo.json

    This will scrape all the files in your current directory, excluding gitignored files per the .gitignore file in cwd, and excluding common lockfiles and binary files.

  • Filter Files with Include and Exclude Options:

Use the --include option to specify a glob pattern for files you want to include. Use the --exclude option to specify a glob pattern for files you want to exclude.

Example:

npx github-repo-gpt-scraper --include="src/**/*.ts" --out=repo.json

Or:

npx github-repo-gpt-scraper --exclude="tests/**" --out=repo.json
  • Create a GPT Using the Scraped Data:
  1. Visit https://chat.openai.com/create and click the "Configure" tab.

  2. Under "Knowledge," click "Upload files" and select the JSON file output by the scraper.

  3. Add the following basic instructions to the "Instructions" field:

    You are the creator of the codebase documented in the attached file and an expert in all of its code and the dependencies it uses. All of the user's question will relate to this code, so reference it heavily. Give factual, detailed answers and help the user make updates to the code in as efficient a manner possible while explaining more complex points to them along the way.

The simple instructions above cover the essentials and seem to work pretty well, but feel free to experiment with your own!

Output

The tool outputs a JSON file (repo.json in the above examples) containing the path, URL, and content of each file scraped. I haven't yet experimented with different ways of formatting the file data (or adding supplemental info) and their impact on GPTs, but I'd be eager to hear about anyone's findings if they do so!
