Basic Prompts

Basic prompts are ideal for simple prompts that don't require specific input variables or structured outputs.

Creating a Basic Prompt

If the prompt was a Poem Generator prompt, the prompt file would look like this:

@/prompts/poemGenerator.Prompt.txt

Write a Poem

And the environment variable will be process.env.PoemGeneratorPrompt.

src/app/poem/page.tsx

export default async function PoemPage() {
  const response = await openai.createChatCompletion({ 
    model: "gpt-4",
    messages: [
      {
        role: "user",
        content: process.env.PoemGeneratorPrompt as string,
      }
    ]
  });

  return (
    <div>
      <h1>Poem</h1>
      <p>{response.data.choices[0].text}</p>
    </div>
  );
}
