Automate Your Coding Tasks with Bito CLI
Introduction
Bito is an AI-powered tool that can help developers automate their coding tasks. Bito's Command Line Interface (CLI) supports two new options that enable developers to automate tasks using natural language prompts. In this tutorial, we will cover two examples of how Bito CLI can be used to automate coding tasks.
Creating Git Commit Messages
Often, developers need to create Git commit messages to explain the changes made to their code. Bito CLI can help automate this process. Using Bito CLI, developers can create a prompt file that provides instructions in natural language. For example, a prompt file might ask the developer to «Explain in brief the changes in the code provided.»
Once the prompt file is created, developers can run Bito CLI using the -B option to provide the prompt file and the -F option to specify the file on which they want to perform the operation. In this case, developers can run Bito CLI on the Git diff output file to generate a commit message.
After generating the commit message, developers can write a script that uses the git commit command with the -F option to redirect the output of the Bito CLI command to a commit message file. This allows developers to automate the process of creating Git commit messages.
Creating Markdown Documentation
Another use case for Bito CLI is creating Markdown documentation for code. Developers can create a prompt file that instructs Bito CLI to «Describe the code below in brief in Markdown format.»
Once the prompt file is created, developers can run Bito CLI using the -B option to provide the prompt file and the -F option to specify the file on which they want to perform the operation. In this case, developers can run Bito CLI on the code file for which they want to create documentation.
After generating the Markdown documentation, developers can redirect the output of the Bito CLI command to a file, creating documentation for their code.
Conclusion
Bito CLI provides developers with a powerful tool for automating their coding tasks. By creating prompt files that provide natural language instructions, developers can automate tasks such as creating Git commit messages and Markdown documentation. This tutorial has provided an overview of two examples of how Bito CLI can be used to automate coding tasks. With a little creativity, developers can leverage Bito CLI to automate many other tasks as well.
