mkdocs-ai-summary

AI Summary powered by ChatGPT

The mkdocs-ai-summary is a Python package available on PyPI that generates AI-based summaries for MkDocs pages. It supports two AI platforms: ChatGPT and Tongyi AI. Users must set an environmental variable for the API key of the chosen platform. For ChatGPT, the OPENAI_API_KEY is required, while for Tongyi AI, the DASHSCOPE_API_KEY is necessary. The package allows customization through several configuration options such as the AI model, caching preferences, and prompt settings. Configuration can be either global in the mkdocs.yml file or page-specific via meta tags. The caching mechanism ensures that repetitive API calls are avoided by storing previously generated summaries. Optional CSS for custom summary styles can also be included. For a minimal demo, visit aiboy996.github.io/mkdocs-ai-summary, and for a live example, check yangzhang.site. Enjoy efficient documentation summarization with mkdocs-ai-summary.

⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️

Only support ChatGPT and tongyi ai for now.

To use ChatGPT(default), you should set a Environmental Variable for api key:

export OPENAI_API_KEY='sk-xxxxxxx'
how to get an OPENAI_API_KEY?

To use tongyi ai, you should set a Environmental Variable for api key:

export DASHSCOPE_API_KEY='sk-xxxxxxx'
how to get an DASHSCOPE_API_KEY?

[optional] Then you can include the ai-summary.css(optional, this is for the custom ai summary admonition style) in the config file as below:

---

# title

For tongyi ai Summary

or you can use tongyi ai by setting:

plugins:
  - ai-summary:
      api: "tongyi"
      model: "qwen-turbo"
      ignore_code: true
      cache: true
      cache_dir: "./"
      prompt: "Please help me summarize the following content into an abstract within 200 words: "

Setup ai-summary for specific page

You can also setup ai summary for each page separately:

---
include:
- ai-summary
ai-summary-config:
    api: "tongyi"
    model: "qwen-turbo"
    prompt: "帮我把下面的内容总结为200字以内的摘要:"
---

# title

hello ai summary.

all config options are available. Page configuration will override unified configuration.

About Cache

Don't worry about duplicate api calls, we've made the cache function so that if you've done an ai-summary before and the content hasn't changed it will use the cache.

Enjoy it.
