About the Project

How it Works

This extension uses the Plasmo Extension Framework to deploy a little chat bubble in the Shadow DOM. This connects with a backend that:

• Gets the transcript of the video using yt-dlp
• Embeds the transcript and puts it into a DataStax AstraDB Vector Database.
• Uses OpenAI's GPT-4 to generate a response to the user's message with context from AstraDB.
• Responds to the user.

Prerequisites

• Docker🐳
• DataStax AstraDB (really easy install)🚀
• pnpm or npm (I use pnpm but npm should work fine)📦

How to Install

1. Clone the repository:
2. Open up a terminal and cd extension (this is the chrome extension)
3. In a code editor, rename .env.example to .env and fill in the values. For local development, you can leave the values as is.
4. run pnpm install or npm install
5. run pnpm dev or npm run dev
6. In your browser, make sure you have developer mode enabled, and load the extension from the build/chrome-mv3-dev folder.

Then to run the backend:

1. Open up a terminal and cd endpoint (assuming you are in the root of this project)
2. Similar to the extension, rename .env.example to .env and fill in the values. Fill in the required values.
3. run docker compose up --build. This will build the docker image and run it.
4. You should be good to go!

IMPORTANT NOTES ⏰

Philosophy

I see paid versions of this type of application everywhere and I thought it could be really simple to just make free. The amount of features that users would want is endless so I thought I would just make a simple version that works and then let the community build on top of it.

Respect to the Project / Contributors

This is very early. If you are wanting to add features, report bugs or fix anything, please feel free to open a PR or an issue. I will be working on this in my spare time so I can't guarantee that I will be able to fix everything but I will try my best.
