Summary of Changes

Hello @Guiners, 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 significantly expands the genai live samples by introducing several new Python examples. These samples showcase diverse real-time interactions with the Generative AI models, covering audio, text, and tool-use functionalities. The changes also include minor formatting adjustments to existing websocket-based samples and updates to the test suite to validate the new additions.

Highlights

  • New genai Live Samples: Added six new Python samples demonstrating various 'live' capabilities of the google.genai SDK. These include generating audio from text, performing live code execution, handling live function calls, grounding responses with Google Search, transcribing audio, and generating text from audio input.
  • Test Coverage Expansion: Updated the test_live_examples.py file to include asynchronous tests for each of the newly added genai live samples, ensuring their functionality and correctness.
  • Code Formatting Improvements: Applied minor formatting adjustments (e.g., line breaks for better readability) to several existing websocket-based genai live samples.

Code Review

This pull request adds several new samples for the GenAI "live" feature and refactors some existing ones. The new samples cover a wide range of functionalities, including audio generation, code execution, function calling, and transcription.

Overall, the additions are valuable, but there are several critical issues in the new sample files that will cause them to fail at runtime. These include incorrect API usage, missing imports, and logic errors that can lead to UnboundLocalError. Additionally, some samples have issues that affect their usability and adherence to asynchronous programming best practices.

I've provided detailed comments on these issues with suggestions for how to fix them. Addressing these points will significantly improve the quality and reliability of the new samples.

audio_bytes = get_audio(audio_url)

# If you've pre-converted to sample.pcm using ffmpeg, use this instead:
# audio_bytes = Path("sample.pcm").read_bytes()

Where does this Path method comes from ? Can you share more details

        # audio_bytes = Path("sample.pcm").read_bytes()
