# chat-gemini
Google Gemini provider for [chat-rs](https://github.com/EggerMarc/chat-rs).
## Install
```toml
[dependencies]
chat-core = "0.4.0"
chat-gemini = "0.2.4"
tokio = { version = "1", features = ["macros", "rt-multi-thread"] }
```
Or via the umbrella crate: `chat-rs = { version = "0.5.0", features = ["gemini"] }`.
## Usage
```rust
use chat_gemini::GeminiBuilder;
use chat_core::{builder::ChatBuilder, types::messages};
let client = GeminiBuilder::new()
.with_model("gemini-2.5-flash".to_string())
.build();
let mut chat = ChatBuilder::new().with_model(client).build();
let mut msgs = messages::from_user(vec!["Hello!"]);
let response = chat.complete(&mut msgs).await?;
```
Set `GEMINI_API_KEY` in your environment or call `.with_api_key()` on the builder.
## Capabilities
- **Completions** — text generation with tool calling and structured output
- **Streaming** — token-by-token output (requires `stream` feature)
- **Embeddings** — vector embeddings via `.with_embeddings(dimensions)`
- **Extended thinking** — enable with `.with_thoughts(true)`
## Custom Transport
Supply a custom transport via `.with_transport()` to use something other than the default HTTP (reqwest):
```rust
let client = GeminiBuilder::new()
.with_model("gemini-2.5-flash".to_string())
.with_transport(my_transport)
.build();
```
## Native Tools
- **Google Search** — `.with_google_search()` or `.with_google_search_threshold(f32)`
- **Code Execution** — `.with_code_execution()`
- **Google Maps** — `.with_google_maps(lat_lng, widget)`
## Feature Flags
Streaming is gated on the `stream` feature:
```toml
chat-gemini = { version = "0.2.3", features = ["stream"] }
```
