Overview​

Here's a list of use cases where you can get past the hype and actually use it for something useful.

Extracting regular expressions​

Creating regular expressions usually involves a lot of testing. I usually put the desired text in regexr, regex101, and match the negative/positive lookahead from memory, and use negative/positive lookbehind, but often find that negative lookbehind is not supported by different programming versions/languages.

Now I ask ChatGPT. Suppose you want to extract the package name from the package update history below.

Hello GPT.

Can you give me a regex pattern for getting to-be result?

as-is:
Orignal content


to-be:
Refined string #1
Refined string #2
...and so on.

It will get it for you.

Writing documentation with code​

If you want your code to be documented, put it in and ask it to create a README.md.

Can you write a README.md with this code?

It will get it for you.

Create an Object Validation Schema with the interface​

Let's create a Joi Schema with a TypeScript interface.

Create a Query DSL with Raw SQL​

Pass in a raw query and ask it to create a query DSL and query helper syntax.

Create a DDL with Data​

Pass in a query and ask it to generate a table schema query like the interface example above.
