# Runnable Recipe Examples
This folder contains standalone, executable Python examples for each cookbook recipe. Each file can be run directly as a Python script.
## Prerequisites
- Python 3.8 or later
- Install dependencies (this installs the SDK from PyPI):
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
## Running Examples
Each `.py` file is a complete, runnable program with executable permissions:
```bash
python <filename>.py
# or on Unix-like systems:
./<filename>.py
```
### Available Recipes
| Recipe | Command | Description |
| -------------------- | -------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
| Error Handling | `python error_handling.py` | Demonstrates error handling patterns |
| Multiple Sessions | `python multiple_sessions.py` | Manages multiple independent conversations |
| Managing Local Files | `python managing_local_files.py` | Organizes files using AI grouping |
| PR Visualization | `python pr_visualization.py` | Generates PR age charts |
| Persisting Sessions | `python persisting_sessions.py` | Save and resume sessions across restarts |
### Examples with Arguments
**PR Visualization with specific repo:**
```bash
python pr_visualization.py --repo github/copilot-sdk
```
**Managing Local Files (edit the file to change target folder):**
```bash
# Edit the target_folder variable in managing_local_files.py first
python managing_local_files.py
```
## Local SDK Development
The `requirements.txt` installs the Copilot SDK package from PyPI. This means:
- You get the latest stable release of the SDK
- No need to build from source
- Perfect for using the SDK in your projects
If you want to use a local development version, edit requirements.txt to use `-e ../..` for editable mode development.
## Python Best Practices
These examples follow Python conventions:
- PEP 8 naming (snake_case for functions and variables)
- Shebang line for direct execution
- Proper exception handling
- Type hints where appropriate
- Standard library usage
## Virtual Environment (Recommended)
For isolated development:
```bash
# Create virtual environment
python -m venv venv
# Activate it
# Windows:
venv\Scripts\activate
# Unix/macOS:
source venv/bin/activate
# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
