Step-By-Step Guide To Building The Text Rephrase

The Gemini API is an advanced generative language model designed for natural language processing tasks, including text generation and rephrasing. By leveraging this API, you can create applications that produce human-like text based on user inputs.

Step-By-Step Guide To Building The Text Rephraser

This guide provides a simple, step-by-step process for building a text rephraser that rewrites sentences while retaining their original meaning.

Step 1: Set Up Your Development Environment

To build this tool, you’ll need:

- **Node.js** and **npm** installed on your machine.
- A **React** application set up. You can create one using the command:

npx create-react-app text-rephraser  cd text-rephraser  

Step 2: Install Axios

We’ll use Axios for making API requests. Install it by running:

npm install axios

Step 3: Create the User Interface

In the `src` folder, create a new file called `TextRephraser.js`. This component will handle the user interface and interaction.

javascript
// src/TextRephraser.js
import React, { useState } from 'react';
import axios from 'axios';

const TextRephraser = () => {
    const [inputText, setInputText] = useState('');
    const [rephrasedText, setRephrasedText] = useState('');
    const [loading, setLoading] = useState(false);
    const [error, setError] = useState('');

    const handleRephrase = async (style) => {
        setLoading(true);
        setError('');

        const formattedInput = `Rephrase this text as ${style}: ${inputText}`;

        try {
            const response = await axios.post(
                `https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/models/gemini-1.5-flash-latest:generateContent?key=YOUR_API_KEY`, // Replace with your API key
                {
                    contents: [
                        {
                            parts: [
                                {
                                    text: formattedInput,
                                },
                            ],
                        },
                    ],
                },
                {
                    headers: {
                        'Content-Type': 'application/json',
                    },
                }
            );

            const generatedContent = response.data.candidates[0].content.parts[0].text;
            setRephrasedText(generatedContent);
        } catch (err) {
            setError('Error rephrasing the text. Please try again.');
        } finally {
            setLoading(false);
        }
    };

    return (
        <div className="max-w-md mx-auto p-6 bg-white rounded-lg shadow-lg">
            <h1 className="text-2xl font-bold mb-4 text-center">Text Rephraser</h1>
            <textarea
                value={inputText}
                onChange={(e) => setInputText(e.target.value)}
                placeholder="Enter text to rephrase"
                rows="5"
                className="w-full p-2 border rounded-md focus:outline-none focus:ring-2 focus:ring-blue-500 mb-4"
            />
            <div className="grid grid-cols-2 gap-2">
                {['Polite', 'Professional', 'Funny', 'Lazy', 'Respectful'].map((style) => (
                    <button
                        key={style}
                        onClick={() => handleRephrase(style)}
                        disabled={loading}
                        className={`py-2 px-4 rounded-md text-white transition duration-300 ${loading ? 'bg-gray-400' : 'bg-blue-500 hover:bg-blue-600'}`}
                    >
                        {loading ? 'Rephrasing...' : `Rephrase ${style}`}
                    </button>
                ))}
            </div>
            {error && <p className="mt-4 text-red-500">{error}</p>}
            {rephrasedText && (
                <div className="mt-4">
                    <h2 className="text-lg font-semibold">Rephrased Text:</h2>
                    <p className="p-2 border rounded-md bg-gray-100">{rephrasedText}</p>
                    <button
                        onClick={() => navigator.clipboard.writeText(rephrasedText)}
                        className="mt-2 py-1 px-3 bg-green-500 text-white rounded-md"
                    >
                        Copy
                    </button>
                </div>
            )}
        </div>
    );
};

export default TextRephraser;

Step 4: Update the App Component

In `src/App.js`, import and include the `TextRephraser` component: ```javascript
// src/App.js
import React from 'react';
import TextRephraser from './TextRephraser'; function App() {
    return (
        <div className="App">
            <TextRephraser />
        </div>
    );
}

export default App;

Step 5: Run Your Application

Now that everything is set up, you can run your application using:

npm start

Final Touches

Make sure to replace `YOUR_API_KEY` in the Axios request with your actual Gemini API key. Also, you might want to style your application further using CSS or frameworks like Tailwind CSS for a more appealing look.
