### Quick Refactoring
|
||||
- Fast code refactoring with AI assistance
|
||||
- Selection-based improvements
|
||||
- Alternative code suggestions
|
||||
- **[Learn more](docs/quick-refactoring.md)**
|
||||
|
||||
## System Prompt Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
The plugin comes with default system prompts optimized for chat and instruct models, as these currently provide better results for code assistance. If you prefer using FIM (Fill-in-Middle) models, you can easily customize the system prompt in the settings.
|
||||
|
||||
## Project Rules Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
QodeAssist supports project-specific rules to customize AI behavior for your codebase. Create a `.qodeassist/rules/` directory in your project root.
|
||||
|
||||
### Quick Start
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
mkdir -p .qodeassist/rules/{common,completion,chat,quickrefactor}
|
||||
```
|
||||
```
|
||||
.qodeassist/
|
||||
└── rules/
|
||||
├── common/ # Applied to all contexts
|
||||
├── completion/ # Code completion only
|
||||
├── chat/ # Chat assistant only
|
||||
└── quickrefactor/ # Quick refactor only
|
||||
```
|
||||
All .md files in each directory are automatically loaded and added to the system prompt.
|
||||
|
||||
Example
|
||||
Create .qodeassist/rules/common/general.md:
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Project Guidelines
|
||||
- Use snake_case for private members
|
||||
- Prefix interfaces with 'I'
|
||||
- Always document public APIs
|
||||
- Prefer Qt containers over STL
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## File Context Feature
|
||||
|
||||
QodeAssist provides two powerful ways to include source code files in your chat conversations: Attachments and Linked Files. Each serves a distinct purpose and helps provide better context for the AI assistant.
|
||||
|
||||
### Attached Files
|
||||
|
||||
Attachments are designed for one-time code analysis and specific queries:
|
||||
- Files are included only in the current message
|
||||
- Content is discarded after the message is processed
|
||||
- Ideal for:
|
||||
- Getting specific feedback on code changes
|
||||
- Code review requests
|
||||
- Analyzing isolated code segments
|
||||
- Quick implementation questions
|
||||
- Files can be attached using the paperclip icon in the chat interface
|
||||
- Multiple files can be attached to a single message
|
||||
|
||||
### Linked Files
|
||||
|
||||
Linked files provide persistent context throughout the conversation:
|
||||
|
||||
- Files remain accessible for the entire chat session
|
||||
- Content is included in every message exchange
|
||||
- Files are automatically refreshed - always using latest content from disk
|
||||
- Perfect for:
|
||||
- Long-term refactoring discussions
|
||||
- Complex architectural changes
|
||||
- Multi-file implementations
|
||||
- Maintaining context across related questions
|
||||
- Can be managed using the link icon in the chat interface
|
||||
- Supports automatic syncing with open editor files (can be enabled in settings)
|
||||
- Files can be added/removed at any time during the conversation
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Refactoring Feature
|
||||
### Setup
|
||||
Since this is actually a small chat with redirected output, the main settings of the provider, model and template are taken from the chat settings
|
||||
### Using
|
||||
The request to model consist of instructions to model, selection code and cursor position
|
||||
The default instruction is: "Refactor the code to improve its quality and maintainability." and sending if text field is empty
|
||||
Also there buttons to quick call instractions:
|
||||
* Repeat latest instruction, will activate after sending first request in QtCreator session
|
||||
* Improve current selection code
|
||||
* Suggestion alternative variant of selection code
|
||||
* Other instructions[TBD]
|
||||
### Tools & Function Calling
|
||||
- Read project files
|
||||
- List and search in project
|
||||
- Access linter/compiler issues
|
||||
- Enabled by default (can be disabled)
|
||||

|
||||
Also you can find default hotkeys here:
|
||||

|
||||
- on Windows: Ctrl + Alt + W
|
||||
- on Linux: Ctrl + Alt + W
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Ignoring Files
|
||||
QodeAssist supports the ability to ignore files in context using a .qodeassistignore file. This allows you to exclude specific files from the context during code completion and in the chat assistant, which is especially useful for large projects.
|
||||
All hotkeys can be customized in Qt Creator Settings. Default hotkeys:
|
||||
|
||||
### How to Use .qodeassistignore
|
||||
- Create a .qodeassistignore file in the root directory of your project near CMakeLists.txt or pro.
|
||||
- Add patterns for files and directories that should be excluded from the context.
|
||||
- QodeAssist will automatically detect this file and apply the exclusion rules.
|
||||
|
||||
### .qodeassistignore File Format
|
||||
The file format is similar to .gitignore:
|
||||
- Each pattern is written on a separate line
|
||||
- Empty lines are ignored
|
||||
- Lines starting with # are considered comments
|
||||
- Standard wildcards work the same as in .gitignore
|
||||
- To negate a pattern, use ! at the beginning of the line
|
||||
```
|
||||
# Ignore all files in the build directory
|
||||
/build
|
||||
*.tmp
|
||||
# Ignore a specific file
|
||||
src/generated/autogen.cpp
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
| Action | macOS | Windows/Linux |
|
||||
|--------|-------|--------------|
|
||||
| Open chat window | ⌥⌘W | Ctrl+Alt+W |
|
||||
| Close chat window | ⌥⌘S | Ctrl+Alt+S |
|
||||
| Manual code suggestion | ⌥⌘Q | Ctrl+Alt+Q |
|
||||
| Accept full suggestion | Tab | Tab |
|
||||
| Accept word | ⌥→ | Alt+→ |
|
||||
| Quick refactor | ⌥⌘R | Ctrl+Alt+R |
|
||||
|
||||

2. Confirm that the selected model and template are compatible:
|
||||
## Development Progress
|
||||
|
||||
Ensure you've chosen the correct model in the "Select Models" option
|
||||
Verify that the selected prompt template matches the model you're using
|
||||
|
||||
3. On Linux the prebuilt binaries support only ubuntu 22.04+ or simililliar os.

# File Context Feature
|
||||
|
||||
QodeAssist provides two powerful ways to include source code files in your chat conversations: Attachments and Linked Files. Each serves a distinct purpose and helps provide better context for the AI assistant.
|
||||
|
||||
## Attached Files
|
||||
|
||||
Attachments are designed for one-time code analysis and specific queries:
|
||||
- Files are included only in the current message
|
||||
- Content is discarded after the message is processed
|
||||
- Ideal for:
|
||||
- Getting specific feedback on code changes
|
||||
- Code review requests
|
||||
- Analyzing isolated code segments
|
||||
- Quick implementation questions
|
||||
- Files can be attached using the paperclip icon in the chat interface
|
||||
- Multiple files can be attached to a single message
|
||||
|
||||
## Linked Files
|
||||
|
||||
Linked files provide persistent context throughout the conversation:
|
||||
|
||||
- Files remain accessible for the entire chat session
|
||||
- Content is included in every message exchange
|
||||
- Files are automatically refreshed - always using latest content from disk
|
||||
- Perfect for:
|
||||
- Long-term refactoring discussions
|
||||
- Complex architectural changes
|
||||
- Multi-file implementations
|
||||
- Maintaining context across related questions
|
||||
- Can be managed using the link icon in the chat interface
|
||||
- Supports automatic syncing with open editor files (can be enabled in settings)
|
||||
- Files can be added/removed at any time during the conversation

# Ignoring Files
|
||||
|
||||
QodeAssist supports the ability to ignore files in context using a `.qodeassistignore` file. This allows you to exclude specific files from the context during code completion and in the chat assistant, which is especially useful for large projects.
|
||||
|
||||
## How to Use .qodeassistignore
|
||||
|
||||
- Create a `.qodeassistignore` file in the root directory of your project near CMakeLists.txt or pro.
|
||||
- Add patterns for files and directories that should be excluded from the context.
|
||||
- QodeAssist will automatically detect this file and apply the exclusion rules.
|
||||
|
||||
## .qodeassistignore File Format
|
||||
|
||||
The file format is similar to `.gitignore`:
|
||||
- Each pattern is written on a separate line
|
||||
- Empty lines are ignored
|
||||
- Lines starting with `#` are considered comments
|
||||
- Standard wildcards work the same as in .gitignore
|
||||
- To negate a pattern, use `!` at the beginning of the line
|
||||
|
||||
## Example
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# Ignore all files in the build directory
|
||||
/build
|
||||
*.tmp
|
||||
# Ignore a specific file
|
||||
src/generated/autogen.cpp
|
||||
```

# Project Rules Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
QodeAssist supports project-specific rules to customize AI behavior for your codebase. Create a `.qodeassist/rules/` directory in your project root.
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Start
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
mkdir -p .qodeassist/rules/{common,completion,chat,quickrefactor}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Directory Structure
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
.qodeassist/
|
||||
└── rules/
|
||||
├── common/ # Applied to all contexts
|
||||
├── completion/ # Code completion only
|
||||
├── chat/ # Chat assistant only
|
||||
└── quickrefactor/ # Quick refactor only
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
All `.md` files in each directory are automatically loaded and added to the system prompt.
|
||||
|
||||
## Example
|
||||
|
||||
Create `.qodeassist/rules/common/general.md`:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Project Guidelines
|
||||
- Use snake_case for private members
|
||||
- Prefix interfaces with 'I'
|
||||
- Always document public APIs
|
||||
- Prefer Qt containers over STL
|
||||
```

# Quick Refactoring Feature
|
||||
|
||||
## Setup
|
||||
|
||||
Since this is actually a small chat with redirected output, the main settings of the provider, model and template are taken from the chat settings.
|
||||
|
||||
## Using
|
||||
|
||||
The request to model consist of instructions to model, selection code and cursor position.
|
||||
|
||||
The default instruction is: "Refactor the code to improve its quality and maintainability." and sending if text field is empty.
|
||||
|
||||
Also there buttons to quick call instractions:
|
||||
- Repeat latest instruction, will activate after sending first request in QtCreator session
|
||||
- Improve current selection code
|
||||
- Suggestion alternative variant of selection code
|
||||
- Other instructions[TBD]

# Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
## Connection Issues
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Verify provider URL and port
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure you're using the correct default URLs:
|
||||
- **Ollama**: `http://localhost:11434`
|
||||
- **LM Studio**: `http://localhost:1234`
|
||||
- **llama.cpp**: `http://localhost:8080`
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Check model and template compatibility
|
||||
|
||||
- Ensure the correct model is selected in settings
|
||||
- Verify that the selected prompt template matches your model
|
||||
- Some models may not support certain features (e.g., tool calling)
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Linux compatibility
|
||||
|
||||
- Prebuilt binaries support Ubuntu 22.04+
|
||||
- For other distributions, you may need to [build manually](../README.md#how-to-build)
|
||||
- See [issue #48](https://github.com/Palm1r/QodeAssist/issues/48) for known Linux compatibility issues and solutions
|
||||
|
||||
## Reset Settings
|
||||
|
||||
If issues persist, you can reset settings to their default values:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Open Qt Creator → Settings → QodeAssist
|
||||
2. Select the settings page you want to reset
|
||||
3. Click "Reset Page to Defaults" button
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:**
|
||||
- API keys are preserved during reset
|
||||
- You will need to re-select your model after reset
|
||||
|
||||
## Common Issues
|
||||
|
||||
### Plugin doesn't appear after installation
|
||||
|
||||
1. Restart Qt Creator completely
|
||||
2. Check that the plugin is enabled in About Plugins
|
||||
3. Verify you downloaded the correct version for your Qt Creator
|
||||
|
||||
### No suggestions appearing
|
||||
|
||||
1. Check that code completion is enabled in QodeAssist settings
|
||||
2. Verify your provider/model is running and accessible
|
||||
3. Check Qt Creator's Application Output pane for error messages
|
||||
4. Try manual suggestion hotkey (⌥⌘Q on macOS, Ctrl+Alt+Q on Windows/Linux)
|
||||
|
||||
### Chat not responding
|
||||
|
||||
1. Verify your API key is configured correctly (for cloud providers)
|
||||
2. Check internet connection (for cloud providers)
|
||||
3. Ensure the provider service is running (for local providers)
|
||||
4. Look for error messages in the chat panel
|
||||
|
||||
