This Go SDK provides an interface for developers to integrate Google's generative AI models, such as Gemini, into their Go applications. It enables text generation from text-only or multimodal (text-and-image) inputs, allowing for the creation of AI-powered features.

How It Works

The SDK offers a client-based approach to interact with Google's generative AI models. It supports both the Gemini API and Vertex AI backends, abstracting the complexities of API calls. Developers can easily construct content inputs, including text and image data, and send them to the models for content generation.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Install with: go get google.golang.org/genai
• Requires Go 1.18+ and an API key or Google Cloud project configuration.
• Official documentation: https://pkg.go.dev/google.golang.org/genai

Highlighted Details

• Supports Gemini Multimodal Live for real-time conversation and video streaming.
• Enables text generation from text-only and text-and-image inputs.
• Provides distinct client configurations for Gemini API and Vertex AI.

Maintenance & Community
