Summary of Changes
Hello @for-the-zero, I'm Gemini Code Assist[^1]! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!
This pull request updates the Get_started_LiveAPI.py quickstart script to ensure compatibility with the latest version of the google.genai library's Live API. The changes address deprecated methods, upgrade the underlying Gemini model to a newer preview version, and introduce more comprehensive configuration options for live connections, making the example functional and aligned with current best practices.
Highlights
-
API Method Updates: The methods for sending both text and real-time media input have been updated from
self.session.sendtoself.session.send_client_contentandself.session.send_realtime_inputrespectively, reflecting changes in thegoogle.genailibrary's Live API. -
Model Upgrade: The script now utilizes the
gemini-live-2.5-flash-previewmodel, upgrading from the previousgemini-2.0-flash-live-001. -
Enhanced LiveConnect Configuration: The
CONFIGobject has been significantly expanded to usetypes.LiveConnectConfig, allowing for more granular control over response modalities, media resolution, speech configuration (including voice selection like 'Zephyr'), and context window compression. -
API Key Integration: The
genai.Clientinitialization now explicitly includes anapi_keyparameter, retrieving it from theGEMINI_API_KEYenvironment variable for better security and flexibility. -
Python Version Compatibility: Removed explicit
taskgroupandexceptiongroupimports, suggesting an assumption of Python 3.11+ whereasyncio.TaskGroupandasyncio.ExceptionGroupare standard library features.
