Bardie is a simple Express.js application that interacts with the Bard Chat API to generate responses to user questions. It provides an endpoint /bard that accepts a POST request with a JSON payload containing a question field. The application sends the question to the Bard Chat API and returns the generated response.

• Node.js (v14 or higher)
• npm (Node Package Manager)

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/initID/bardie.git

2. Install the dependencies:

   cd bardie
   npm install

3. Start the application:

   npm start

   The application will be running at http://localhost:3000.

Send a POST request to the /bard endpoint with the following JSON payload:

{
  "question": "Is Komodo Dragon a dragon even though they can't fly?"
}

The server will respond with the generated response from the Bard Chat API.

The application uses environment variables for configuration. The following environment variables can be set:

• PORT (default: 3000): The port on which the server listens.
• SECURE1PSID: The secure 1PSID value for authentication with the Bard Chat API.
• AT_KEY: The AT key for authentication with the Bard Chat API.

These environment variables can be set in a .env file in the project root directory. For more information about obtaining your AT_KEY and SECURE1PSID, refer to the project's configuration.md.
