Summary of Changes
Hello @msampathkumar, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! 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 primarily focuses on maintaining the currency of the genai samples by upgrading the google-genai SDK to its latest version (1.27.0). Concurrently, it updates several hardcoded Gemini model names within the sample code to align with current API specifications and available model versions, ensuring the samples remain functional and demonstrate best practices with the updated SDK.
Highlights
- SDK Version Update: The
google-genaiSDK dependency has been updated from version1.20.0to1.27.0across allrequirements.txtfiles within thegenaisample directories. This ensures the samples are compatible with the latest features and improvements of the SDK. - Gemini Model Name Updates: Several Gemini model names used in the samples have been updated to reflect current API specifications and available model versions:
gemini-2.0-flash-expis nowgemini-2.0-flash-preview-image-generationin image generation samples (imggen_mmflash_edit_img_with_txt_img.py,imggen_mmflash_txt_and_img_with_txt.py).gemini-2.0-flash-001is nowgemini-2.5-flashin tools samples (tools_func_def_with_txt.py,tools_vais_with_txt.py).- Minor Comment Formatting: A minor whitespace adjustment was made in a commented line regarding model ID formatting in
batchpredict_with_bq.pyandbatchpredict_with_gcs.pyfor consistency.
