How to update the openai package in the project to version 1.2.0?

[cadesalaberry]

I was trying to update the ChatFred project to use the latest version of the openai pip package (to use dall-e 3), and I am not familiar with the way you packaged the dependencies for your project. I was expecting a requirements.txt file to update somewhere but I did not find it.

How were the dependencies initially shipped in the libs folder? How should I go about updating them? I thought about using pip download but it does not look like the expected file structure (it downloads .whl files).

Hey @cadesalaberry!
You are right, all packages are installed to the libs folder. Just use --target with pip install. Hope this helps!

I think I am missing something, when I execute:

pip3 install --target workflow/src/libs openai --upgrade

Here are my questions:

• I get *.dist-info folders
• Are the dependencies platform dependent? I am on M2, will it still work on intel Macs?

Is there another parameter that I am missing?

Hey!
Usually, that should work for Apple silicon as well as x86. You can/should remove all *.dist-info as well as all *.so files (you can use this script) to detect them.

Thx! I have some more question to proceed with the update:

• How did you set the python3 path should I leave it this way?
• To test the workflow, do you package it into a .alfredworkflow and reinstall it every time? is there a faster way to test from a folder? also is there a way to backup preferences before installing a new workflow?

[chrislemke]

• There should be no need to change the python3 path
• For testing the easiest way is that you navigate to the workflow path and just exchange the files. No need for packaging it or for reinstallation.
