The go-anthropic library can be used for real-time messaging applications that interact with the Anthropic Claude API in the following ways:
The library supports streaming messages, which allows you to get real-time responses from the Anthropic API. This is done through the `CreateMessagesStream` method, which streams the response back to your application as it is generated, rather than waiting for the full response.[1][2]
To use streaming messages, you can create a `MessagesRequest` and set the `Streaming` field to `true`:
go
client := anthropic.NewClient("your anthropic apikey")
resp, err := client.CreateMessagesStream(context.Background(), anthropic.MessagesRequest{
Model: anthropic.ModelClaude3Opus20240229,
Streaming: true,
Messages: []anthropic.Message{
{
Role: anthropic.RoleUser,
Content: []anthropic.MessageContent{
anthropic.NewTextMessageContent("What is the weather like today?"),
},
},
},
MaxTokens: 1000,
})
if err != nil {
// handle error
}
for msg := range resp.Messages {
fmt.Println(msg.Content.Text)
}
This will stream the message response back to your application, allowing you to display the text as it is generated, rather than waiting for the full response.[1][2]
The go-anthropic library also supports the use of "tools", which allow the AI to perform external actions and return the results back to the application. This can enable real-time interactions where the AI can look up information, perform calculations, or take other actions on behalf of the user.[1][2]
Overall, the streaming and tool features in the go-anthropic library make it well-suited for building real-time messaging applications that leverage the capabilities of the Anthropic Claude API.
