Drafts Directory: Gemini: Modify Selection

Action

Posted by agiletortoise, Last update 10 days ago

Prompt for a text manipulation instruction and request Google Gemini AI perform that instruction on the selected text, replacing the selection with the result.

For example, select the text “my text” in the draft, run this action and give the instruction “uppercase” in the prompt, and the result selection will become “MY TEXT”.

This becomes more useful when you want to apply a series of instructions. For example, select the text “Happy Birthday Joe!” in a draft and use the instruction “uppercase and insert an 🎉 emoji between each word” to get “HAPPY 🎉 BIRTHDAY 🎉 JOE!”

Steps

script

// get your input selected text, and store range for later
const selection = editor.getSelectedText()
const [st, len] = editor.getSelectedRange()
// setup model name to use
const model = "models/gemini-pro"

let f = () => {
	let p = new Prompt()
	p.title = "Gemini: Modify Selection"
	p.message = "What do you want Gemini to do with the selected text?"
	p.addTextView("instruction", "Gemini Prompt", "")
	p.addLabel("caption", "Provide an instruction to transform the selected text in the draft, for example `capitalize`, `translate into spanish`")
	p.addSelect("result", "Result", ["Replace Selection", "Append to Selection", "Place in Clipboard"], ["Replace Selection"], false)
	p.addButton("Modify")
	
	if (!p.show()) {
		return false
	}
	const instruction = p.fieldValues["instruction"]
	if (instruction == 0) { return false }

	// build prompt with instruction and selection
	let chatPrompt = `${instruction} the following text, returning only the result: ${selection}`

	// send that to the AI
	let ai = new GoogleAI()
	let answer = ai.quickPrompt(chatPrompt, model)

	// if we got no reply, cancel
	if (!answer || answer.length == 0) {
		context.fail()
		return false
	}
	
	switch(String(p.fieldValues["result"])) {
	case "Replace Selection":
		editor.setSelectedText(answer)
		editor.setSelectedRange(st, answer.length)
		break
	case "Append to Selection":
		editor.setSelectedText(`${selection}

${answer}
`)
		editor.setSelectedRange(st + selection.length + 2, answer.length)
		break
	default: // clipboard
		app.setClipboard(answer)
		break
	}
