Gorilla AI

https://gorilla.cs.berkeley.edu/  Gorilla is a AI LLM that can provide appropriate API calls, command-line commands and much more by using natural language instructions directly from your terminal.

Examples:

Command-Line command example

gorilla "I need a list of the 10 largest files in this directory, sorted by largest files sizes first"

gorilla "I need the weather forecast in St. Louis for the next 5 days. I need to use a free service that required no API keys."

Installation (Linux/Ubuntu)

Install dependencies

1. Install python3

sudo apt install python3

2. Install pip3

sudo apt install python3-pip

3. Install python3 virtualenv

sudo apt install python3-venv

Create a Python3 Virtual Environment

4. Create a python3 virtual environment. The last param is the name of the virtual environemnt. You can name it whatever you want. In this case its “gorilla-env”.

python3 -m venv gorilla-env

5. Activate and enter the virtual environment. The terminal should put you “in” the enviroment. Look for the “(gorilla-env)” tag next to your command prompt.

source gorilla-env/bin/activate

6. Install gorilla-cli in the python3 virtual environment

pip install gorilla-cli

7. You can exit the virtual environment and start using “gorilla” commands.

gorilla "List all the files in this directory"

Example Output:

🦍  Welcome to Gorilla. Use arrows to select
 » ls -al
   ls -l
   `ls -a`
   : #Do nothing

brew install python3

2. Upgrade pip3

python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip

3. Install gorilla-cli

sudo pip3 install gorilla-cli

4. Install python3 virtualenv

sudo pip3 install virtualenv

Create a Python3 Virtual Environment

4. Create a python3 virtual environment. The last param is the name of the virtual environemnt. You can name it whatever you want. In this case its “gorilla-env”.

python3 -m virtualenv --system-site-packages gorilla-env

5. Activate and enter the virtual environment. The terminal should put you “in” the enviroment. Look for the “(gorilla-env)” tag next to your command prompt.

source ~/gorilla-env/bin/activate

6. Install gorilla-cli in the python3 virtual environment

pip install gorilla-cli

Setup Python3 Virtual Environment to run on boot

7. Add activation command to .bashprofile: Open the .bashprofile file in your user directory. Run the following command to open it:

nano ~/.bash_profile

8. Add the following line to the end of the file:

source ~/gorilla-env/bin/activate

9. Save and exit the file. Press Ctrl+X to exit nano, then Y to save the file, then Enter to confirm the filename.
10. Make the virtual environment global: Run the following command in the terminal to make the virtual environment visible to other globally installed packages:

pip3 install virtualenvwrapper

11. Add the following line to .bash_profile, replacing the path with the actual path to your Python installation:

export VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON=/usr/local/bin/python3

10. Run the following command in the terminal to apply the changes made to the .bashprofile file:

source ~/.bash_profile
