📍 Overview

The repository contains a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) called "AI Powered Request Response System" that acts as a Python backend application, bridging the gap between human communication and advanced AI technologies. Users can send requests to the system via a defined API endpoint, which then processes them using the OpenAI API and returns a comprehensive response. The system is built with scalability, security, and user experience in mind, using technologies like FastAPI, SQLAlchemy, and PostgreSQL.

📦 Features

	Feature	Description
⚙️	Architecture	The system utilizes a REST API architecture based on FastAPI for handling requests and responses. SQLAlchemy is used for database interaction with PostgreSQL.
📄	Documentation	This README file provides a detailed overview of the MVP, its features, installation, usage, and deployment instructions.
🔗	Dependencies	The project utilizes packages such as FastAPI, SQLAlchemy, psycopg2-binary, OpenAI, and Pydantic for API development, database interaction, and data validation.
🧩	Modularity	The codebase is organized into modules for better organization and maintainability, with separate files for models, routers, and utilities.
🧪	Testing	Includes unit tests using pytest to ensure the robustness and reliability of the codebase.
⚡️	Performance	The backend is designed for efficient processing of user requests and returns responses promptly. Caching strategies are implemented for frequently asked questions.
🔐	Security	The backend utilizes robust authentication and authorization protocols. Input validation and data sanitization are implemented to prevent security vulnerabilities.
🔀	Version Control	Utilizes Git for version control with a startup.sh script for managing the application startup process.
🔌	Integrations	The backend seamlessly integrates with the OpenAI API, securely communicating with it to process user requests and retrieve responses.
📶	Scalability	The system is designed for scalability with the use of PostgreSQL for data storage and efficient request handling techniques.

💻 Installation

🔧 Prerequisites

• Python 3.9+
• PostgreSQL 14+
• Docker (optional, for containerized deployment)

🚀 Setup Instructions

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/coslynx/AI-Powered-Request-Response-System.git
   cd AI-Powered-Request-Response-System

2. Install dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Set up the database:
   • Create a PostgreSQL database.
   • Update the DATABASE_URL in the .env file with your database connection string.
4. Configure environment variables:

   cp .env.example .env

   Replace sk-YOUR_API_KEY_HERE with your actual OpenAI API key.

🏗️ Usage

🏃‍♂️ Running the MVP

1. Start the application:

   python main.py

⚙️ Configuration

• The .env file contains environment variables like the OpenAI API key and database connection string.

📚 Examples

• Sending a request:

  curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/requests -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"text": "What is the meaning of life?"}'

• Response:

  {
      "id": 1,
      "text": "What is the meaning of life?",
      "response": "The meaning of life is a question that has been pondered by philosophers and theologians for centuries. There is no one definitive answer, and the meaning of life may be different for each individual. Some people find meaning in their relationships, their work, their faith, or their hobbies. Ultimately, the meaning of life is up to each individual to decide.",

   heroku create ai-request-response-system-production

   • Set environment variables:

   heroku config:set OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key
   heroku config:set DATABASE_URL=your_database_url

   • Deploy the code:

   git push heroku main

🔑 Environment Variables

• OPENAI_API_KEY: Your OpenAI API key
• DATABASE_URL: Your PostgreSQL database connection string (e.g., postgresql://user:password@host:port/database)
