BotsOnRails 0.1.2

BotsOnRails
BotsOnRails was born out of a frustration with the challenges of building complex workflows involving large language
models (LLMs), human interaction, and custom logic. As LLMs like GPT-3 and GPT-4 have become more powerful and
accessible, there's been an explosion of interest in building applications that leverage their capabilities. However,
building these applications often requires orchestrating a complex dance between AI-generated content, human review
and approval, and custom processing logic.
Existing workflow orchestration tools, while powerful, often feel overly complex and rigid for these kinds of
AI-driven workflows. They require a lot of upfront design and don't easily accommodate the kinds of dynamic,
human-in-the-loop workflows that are common when working with LLMs.
At the same time, building these workflows from scratch using raw Python code quickly becomes unmanageable. The flow of
data and control between different parts of the system becomes hard to follow, and it's easy for subtle bugs and
inconsistencies to creep in.
BotsOnRails was created to provide a sweet spot between these two extremes. It offers a simple, flexible, and
expressive way to define workflows as trees of nodes, where each node represents a single step or decision point.
Crucially, it has first-class support for human interaction, allowing you to easily designate any node as a pause
point for human review or approval.
Key Features:

Tree-based orchestration: Define complex workflows as execution trees with nodes representing tasks or decisions.
Human-in-the-loop: Seamlessly integrate human input and approvals into automated workflows.
Dynamic routing: Route execution flow based on runtime data or conditions using functions or static mappings.
Type checking: Ensure type safety and compatibility between nodes for robust execution.
Visualization: Generate visual representations of your execution trees for analysis and debugging.
Resumable execution: Restart or continue execution from specific nodes for iterative review and modification.
Lightweight and flexible: Easy to integrate into existing projects and adapt to various use cases.

Installation:
Prerequisites
You need to install graphviz, which has different installation methods depending on your system.
Windows
We'd suggest using the .exe installer from the
official graphviz website.
Linux
If you're using Ubuntu or another Debian derivative, try using apt like so:
sudo apt install graphviz

MacOS
There are a number of ways to install graphviz on Mac. For example, you can use homebrew:
brew install graphviz

Install BotsOnRails
You can install the package directly from PyPi using pip:
pip install BotsOnRails

Docs & Quickstart:
Check out our extensive documentation (still a work in progress).
Examples
We have a number of examples that illustrate how to build some common LLM-powered applications using BotsOnRails:

Document Processing Pipeline
Human-in-the-loop Content Moderation
LLM-Powered Interface
