## Installation

To install this program, simply follow these steps:

1. Clone this repository to your local machine by running the following command in your terminal:

```bash

git clone https://github.com/mikavehns/BookGPT.git

```

2. Navigate to the root directory of the repository using `cd BookGPT/src`

3. Install the required dependencies by running the following command:

```bash

pip install -r requirements.txt

```





## Prerequisites

In order to use this program, you must have a [GPT-3 API key](https://beta.openai.com/account/api-keys). The API Key must then be inserted into the `config.json` file.





## Usage

To use this program, simply run the following command in your terminal:

```bash

python run.py

```

You will then be prompted to enter the following information:

- Chapter Amount: The amount of chapters you want the book to have.

- Chapter Length: The amount of words you want each chapter to have.

- Topic: The topic you want the book to be about.

- Category: The type of book you want to generate. (Science, Biography, etc.)



The program will then generate a Title and Chapter Titles + Content. You will get a detailed structure of the book.

The generated books will then be saved in the `books` folder and will be named after the title of the book.





## Examples

Here are some examples:

- Generate book with 5 chapters and 300 words per chapter, with quotes as chapter title, with the topic "success":

- You can see all examples in the `examples/` directory.





## Notes

- The run.py file is just one example on how to use the book generator. You can also implement it into a website, discord bot, desktop app, etc.

- The program may take some time to run, depending on the specified parameters and the performance of the GPT-3 API. Please be patient while the book is being generated.

- The program may not always generate the wished amount of words for each chapter. This can happen, if there is not enough data available for the specified topic.

- Currently, it is only possible to generate Non-Fiction books.

- Since this is a really early version (v0.6.2), there are many missing features, that will be added by time
