Setup and Installation Guide

Getting Rust, GPT-4-Free, and Toka installed and ready-to-go should only take a few minutes.

Installing Rust

What is Rust?

Rust is a modern systems programming language focused on performance, reliability, and memory safety. It is widely used for applications requiring high efficiency, such as embedded systems, web assembly, and large-scale server applications. Rust’s strong type system and ownership model help developers write safe and concurrent code without runtime overhead.

Installation

To install Rust, download and run the official installation script. After installation, restart your terminal and verify that Rust is installed.

Rustup is the recommended toolchain installer for Rust. It manages Rust versions and components efficiently, allowing you to switch between different toolchains seamlessly. For more details, visit Rustup.

Installing GPT-4-Free

Why Use GPT-4-Free?

GPT-4-Free provides an accessible way to use large language models without cost. It allows developers and learners to experiment with AI capabilities, making it a great resource for those looking to integrate AI into projects without paying for expensive API calls.

Install GPT-4-Free API

1. Clone the GPT-4-Free repository:

   git clone https://github.com/xtekky/gpt4free.git
   

2. Navigate into the directory and install dependencies:

   cd gpt4free
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

3. Start the local API:

   python api.py
   

For more details, visit the official repository: GPT-4-Free.

Setting Up Toka Framework

Toka is a modular Rust framework for building AI-powered agents. It supports multiple LLM providers, including GPT-4-Free.

Install Toka

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/tokahub/Toka.git
   

2. Navigate into the directory and build the project:

   cd Toka
   cargo build
   

3. Ensure GPT-4-Free API is running on localhost:1337:

   g4f api
   

4. Run the main application:

   cargo run --bin app
   

5. Run an example showcasing agent import/export:

   cargo run --example import_export
   

For more examples, check the app/examples/ directory in the repository.

Debugging

Use the --verbose flag for more detailed error messages in Rust:

cargo build --verbose

For HonKit debugging, you can use:

honkit build ./ --log=debug --debug
