# Installation

You will need Node.js 18+ and pnpm install on your local development machine.

```bash
npm install openassistantgpt
```

# Usage

## Import Default CSS

Import the default CSS files to ensure correct styling is applied. For NextJS apps - this should be added to your [layout file](https://github.com/OpenAssistantGPT/chatbot-sdk/blob/main/examples/next-website/app/layout.tsx#L1).

```
import "@openassistantgpt/ui/dist/index.css"
```

## @openassistantgpt/assistant

First you need to import our library and configure the POST and GET method. This will setup the backend correctly.

```bash
npm install @openassistantgpt/assistant
```

Then you have to setup you environment variables by creating your `.env` file

```
OPENAI_API_KEY=xxxxxxx
OPENAI_ASSISTANT_ID=xxxxxx
```

Once the package is installed and your environment variables are configured create the route file `/api/chat/[[...openassistantgpt]]/route.ts`

```js
import { OpenAssistantGPT } from '@openassistantgpt/assistant';

// In OpenAssistantGPT handler you must enter your base path.
// The base path is everything before the [[...openassistantgpt]] part of the route.
const httpHandler = new OpenAssistantGPT('/api/chat/').handler;

export { httpHandler as GET, httpHandler as POST };
```

## @openassistantgpt/ui

First you need to import our library and configure your component to use it.

```bash
npm install @openassistantgpt/ui
```

Once the UI package is installed create the `page.tsx` file and configure your chatbot like you want.

```js
'use client';

import { OpenAssistantGPTChat, ChatbotConfig } from '@openassistantgpt/ui';

export default function ChatPage() {
  const chatbot: ChatbotConfig = {
    id: '12345',
    name: 'OpenAssistantGPT',

    chatTitle: 'Chat with OpenAssistantGPT',
