Matrix ChatGPT Bot
==================
Talk to ChatGPT via your favourite Matrix client!

A Matrix bot that uses [transitive-bullshit/chatgpt-api](https://github.com/transitive-bullshit/chatgpt-api) to access the unofficial ChatGPT API.
# Usage
1. Create a room
2. Add the bot
3. Start chatting away!
# Features
- Shows typing indicator as ChatGPT is thinking!
- Supports encryption
- Stores context for ChatGPT conversations
# Configure
```
cp .env.example .env
```
You must adjust the settings in the `.env` file according to your needs.
## Matrix
You need a Matrix account on Matrix.org (or any other server).
The bot outputs `MATRIX_ACCESS_TOKEN` to the console if it is not already set but `MATRIX_BOT_USERNAME` & `MATRIX_BOT_PASSWORD` are.
You must set `MATRIX_ACCESS_TOKEN` to use this token. Do not use it with any other client.
You no longer need `MATRIX_BOT_PASSWORD` set but you can leave it if you want.
## OpenAI / ChatGPT
You must read the [authentication instructions](https://www.npmjs.com/package/chatgpt#usage) for chatgpt-api if you get stuck.
Using the same account at [chat.openai.com](https://chat.openai.com) may refresh tokens invalidating the bot's session.
Ensure your OpenAI account uses Google and set `OPENAI_LOGIN_TYPE` to `google`.
**If the Google account uses 2FA it will fail** but there is [a workaround](https://github.com/transitive-bullshit/chatgpt-api/issues/169#issuecomment-1362206780)
