your Resume Chatbot API

A lightweight Go backend that answers questions about my skills, experience, and hobbies using the OpenAI API. You can integrate this API with any frontend (React, etc.) to provide a conversational Q&A bot about a resume.

Features

• Simple REST API for Q&A about a resume
• Powered by OpenAI’s GPT-3.5 Turbo for accurate, concise answers
• Reads the resume from a local file (not tracked in git for privacy)
• Easy to deploy, cross-platform, and Docker-friendly

Requirements

• Go 1.20 or later (get it from https://go.dev/dl/)
• An OpenAI API key (get one here)
• Your resume.txt in the root of the project (plain text or markdown)

Environment Variables

• OPENAI_API_KEY – Your OpenAI API key (required)

Setup & Usage

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/resume-chatbot-go.git
   cd resume-chatbot-go

2. Add your resume:

   • Copy your resume as resume.txt in the project root.
   • DO NOT COMMIT your real resume!
     resume.txt is in .gitignore by default.

3. Set your OpenAI API key:

   export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

4. Build and run:

   go build -o your-bot
   ./your-bot

   Or, just:

   go run main.go

5. API Endpoint:

   • The API will be available at:
     http://localhost:8080/chat

   • Example request:

     curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/chat \
       -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
       -d '{"message": "What is your’s experience with Go?"}'

Docker (optional)

You can build and run with Docker (if you prefer):

docker build -t your-bot .
docker run -e OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-xxxxxx -v $(pwd)/resume.txt:/app/resume.txt -p 8080:8080 your-bot
