Auto Generated Agent Chat: Group Chat with GPTAssistantAgent

Open In Colab Open on GitHub

AutoGen offers conversable agents powered by LLM, tool or human, which can be used to perform tasks collectively via automated chat. This framework allows tool use and human participation through multi-agent conversation. Please find documentation about this feature here.

In this notebook, we demonstrate how to get multiple GPTAssistantAgent converse through group chat.

Requirements

AutoGen requires Python>=3.8. To run this notebook example, please install:

Requirements

Install pyautogen:

pip install pyautogen

For more information, please refer to the installation guide.

Set your API Endpoint

The config_list_from_json function loads a list of configurations from an environment variable or a json file.

import autogen
from autogen.agentchat import AssistantAgent
from autogen.agentchat.contrib.gpt_assistant_agent import GPTAssistantAgent

config_list_gpt4 = autogen.config_list_from_json(
"OAI_CONFIG_LIST",
filter_dict={
"model": ["gpt-4", "gpt-4-1106-preview", "gpt-4-32k"],
},
)

Define GPTAssistantAgent and GroupChat

# Define user proxy agent
llm_config = {"config_list": config_list_gpt4, "cache_seed": 45}
user_proxy = autogen.UserProxyAgent(
name="User_proxy",
system_message="A human admin.",
code_execution_config={
"last_n_messages": 2,
"work_dir": "groupchat",
"use_docker": False,
}, # Please set use_docker=True if docker is available to run the generated code. Using docker is safer than running the generated code directly.

Initiate Group Chat

Now all is set, we can initiate group chat.

user_proxy.initiate_chat(
manager,
message="Get the number of issues and pull requests for the repository 'microsoft/autogen' over the past three weeks and offer analysis to the data. You should print the data in csv format grouped by weeks.",
)
# type exit to terminate the chat
User_proxy (to chat_manager):

Get the number of issues and pull requests for the repository 'microsoft/autogen' over the past three weeks and offer analyzes to the data. You should print the data in csv format grouped by weeks.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Coder (to chat_manager):

To gather the number of issues and pull requests for the repository 'microsoft/autogen' over the past three weeks and to offer an analysis of the data, we'll need to modify the previous script.

We will enhance the script to gather data from the past three weeks, separated by each week, and then output the data in CSV format, grouped by the week during which the issues and pull requests were created. This will require us to make multiple API calls for each week and aggregate the data accordingly.

I will provide you a python script to execute.

```python
# filename: github_data_weekly_analyzer.py
import requests
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
import csv

# Constants to define the GitHub repository and the API URLs
REPO_OWNER = 'microsoft'
REPO_NAME = 'autogen'
GITHUB_API_ISSUES = f'https://api.github.com/repos/{REPO_OWNER}/{REPO_NAME}/issues'
GITHUB_API_PULLS = f'https://api.github.com/repos/{REPO_OWNER}/{REPO_NAME}/pulls'

# Function to get data from GitHub API with pagination
def get_github_data(url, since_date, until_date):
items = []
page = 1
while True:
params = {
'state': 'all',
'since': since_date,
'until': until_date,
'page': page,
'per_page': 100
}
response = requests.get(url, params=params)
if response.status_code != 200:
raise Exception(f'Failed to fetch data from GitHub API. Status Code: {response.status_code}')
page_data = response.json()
items.extend(page_data)

if not page_data or 'next' not in response.links:
break

page += 1

return items

# Function to filter and count issues and pull requests by week
def count_items_by_week(items):
counts_by_week = {}
for item in items:
# Using the created_at date to determine the week
created_at = datetime.strptime(item['created_at'], '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ')
week = created_at.strftime('%U')
if week not in counts_by_week:
counts_by_week[week] = 0
counts_by_week[week] += 1
return counts_by_week

# Wrap the task in a function
def analyze_data():
try:
# Initialize CSV data
csv_data = [['week', 'issue_count', 'pull_request_count']]

# Get data for the past three weeks
for weeks_ago in range(3):
# Calculate date range for the particular week
until_date = datetime.utcnow() - timedelta(weeks=weeks_ago)
since_date = until_date - timedelta(days=7)
since_date_str = since_date.strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ')
until_date_str = until_date.strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ')

# Get issues and pull requests for the date range
issues = get_github_data(GITHUB_API_ISSUES, since_date_str, until_date_str)
pull_requests = get_github_data(GITHUB_API_PULLS, since_date_str, until_date_str)

# Filter out pull requests from issues
issues = [issue for issue in issues if 'pull_request' not in issue]

# Count issues and pull requests by week
issue_counts = count_items_by_week(issues)
pull_request_counts = count_items_by_week(pull_requests)

# Aggregate csv data
for week in issue_counts:
csv_data.append([week, issue_counts.get(week, 0), pull_request_counts.get(week, 0)])

# Output CSV data to stdout
writer = csv.writer(sys.stdout)
writer.writerows(csv_data)

except Exception as e:
print(str(e))

# Run the analyze function
if __name__ == "__main__":
analyze_data()
```

Please save this code as `github_data_weekly_analyzer.py` and run it. The script will output the number of issues and pull requests for the repository 'microsoft/autogen' over the past three weeks, grouped by week in CSV format.

If there are any issues or errors during the execution of this script, please let me know the exact error message, and I will assist you in resolving it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Coder (to chat_manager):

It looks like I forgot to import `sys` module which is necessary for writing output to stdout using the `csv.writer`. I will fix the code by adding the import statement for the `sys` module at the beginning of the script. Please run the updated script below:

```python
# filename: github_data_weekly_analyzer.py

}
response = requests.get(url, params=params)
if response.status_code != 200:
raise Exception(f'Failed to fetch data from GitHub API. Status Code: {response.status_code}')
page_data = response.json()
items.extend(page_data)

if not page_data or 'next' not in response.links:
break

page += 1

return items

# Function to filter and count issues and pull requests by week
def count_items_by_week(items):
counts_by_week = {}
for item in items:
# Using the created_at date to determine the week
created_at = datetime.strptime(item['created_at'], '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ')
week = created_at.strftime('%U')
if week not in counts_by_week:
counts_by_week[week] = 0
counts_by_week[week] += 1
return counts_by_week

# Wrap the task in a function
def analyze_data():
try:
# Initialize CSV data
csv_data = [['week', 'issue_count', 'pull_request_count']]

# Get data for the past three weeks
for weeks_ago in range(3):
# Calculate date range for the particular week
until_date = datetime.utcnow() - timedelta(weeks=weeks_ago)
since_date = until_date - timedelta(days=7)
since_date_str = since_date.strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ')
until_date_str = until_date.strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ')

# Get issues and pull requests for the date range
issues = get_github_data(GITHUB_API_ISSUES, since_date_str, until_date_str)
pull_requests = get_github_data(GITHUB_API_PULLS, since_date_str, until_date_str)

# Filter out pull requests from issues

# Output CSV data to stdout
writer = csv.writer(sys.stdout)
writer.writerows(csv_data)

except Exception as e:
print(str(e))

# Run the analyze function
if __name__ == "__main__":
analyze_data()
```

Once again, please save this code as `github_data_weekly_analyzer.py` and run it. The script should produce the intended CSV output. If you run into any more issues, let me know, and I will provide further assistance.

Data_analyst (to chat_manager):

The script executed successfully and provided the following data output in CSV format for the past three weeks:

```
week,issue_count,pull_request_count
46,11,10
45,40,30
44,9,26
```

Week numbers are based on the `%U` directive of `strftime`, which considers week 00 as the first week of the year with a Sunday in it.

Here's the analysis by week:

- Week 46: There were 11 issues and 10 pull requests. This suggests a balanced amount of reported issues and new code contributions. The relatively close numbers might indicate that the repository sees simultaneous reporting of issues and active development.

- Week 45: This week shows significantly more activity than the other two, with 40 issues and 30 pull requests being recorded. This could be a result of a coordinated milestone or sprint ending, where a large set of changes were made, and corresponding issues either surfaced or were also worked on.

- Week 44: The activity dropped to 9 issues and 26 pull requests. While the number of issues decreased, the number of pull requests remained substantial. This may imply a continuation of effort to address the issues raised in the busier previous week or ongoing development work.

The overall impression over the past three weeks is that the `microsoft/autogen` repository is actively maintained and developed, with varying levels of activity that could be associated with the development cycle or external events impacting the project.

Please note that the numbers may be overlapping because the GitHub API will include issues and pull requests updated within the date range, which could increase the count if the items are updated but not necessarily created within that range.

It's also important to consider that the collected data might not fully represent what happened in each week if there are items created before Week 44 that were updated during the weeks considered. For a more accurate approach, we would need to consider only issues and pull requests created within each week specifically, which would require additional filtering based on the `created_at` attribute.

If more in-depth analysis or longer trends are needed, additional data over a more extended period would be recommended, along with information about the nature of the issues and pull requests (e.g., what kind of issues are most common, how quickly they're closed, how often pull requests are merged, etc.).
