QvikChat v2 🎉

QvikChat v2 with new features like support for multimodal I/O and several fixes and optimizations, to help you create even more powerful conversational AI experiences.

Major updates

• Multimodal I/O: Support for multimodal input and output.
  • Updated endpoint creation logic, response generation logic, caching logic, chat history logic, and default prompts to support multimodal I/O.
• Verbose Response Mode: Added support for providing a flag verbose with the request to get the full response object in return for the request (will contain the query's response, usage metrics, etc.).
• DALL-E 3: Added DALL-E 3 to supported models for image generation task.
• Core functions: Now core functions like defineChatEndpoint, setupGenkit and runServer can be accessed directly from root-level (e.g. import { defineChatEndpoint } from '@oconva/qvikchat').
• Configure and run server: Introduced new method configureAndRunServer. This method takes in the list of configurations for endpoints to define. It will:
  1. Setup Genkit
  2. Define endpoints
  3. Start server
• Reduce overall package size by eliminating dependency on external packages where possible.
