PythonCopilot

PythonCopilot (aka Kaa) is a Visual Studio Code extension designed to assist with writing Python code. Kaa is a cute little python that uses a local AI model downloaded from Hugging Face to provide intelligent code suggestions and auto-completion. Additionally, Kaa leverages the OpenAI Chat GPT-3 API to provide extra help and comments in your code.

Usage

To use PythonCopilot, simply install the extension in Visual Studio Code and open a Python file. As you type, the extension will provide intelligent code suggestions and auto-completion. Kaa will also automatically comment your code to help you understand what's going on. You can also use the following keyboard shortcuts:

  • Ctrl+F1 to initialize Kaa
  • Ctrl+F2 to force Kaa to generate code
  • Ctrl+F3 to stop Kaa

Features

  • AI-generated code: Use Kaa's local AI model to generate Python code based on your code.
  • Quick documentation lookup: Easily access documentation for Python libraries and modules within the editor.
  • Code formatting: Automatically format your code to follow the PEP 8 style guide.
  • Automatic comment generation: Kaa can automatically add comments to your code to help you understand what's going on.

Requirements

Kaa requires Visual Studio Code version 1.60.0 or higher and Python 3.7 to be installed on your computer. To use all of Kaa's features, you must also provide your OpenAI API key to the extension. You can obtain an API key by creating an account on the OpenAI website.
