What is Code Generation API?

A tool known as the Text to Code Generator API permits programmers to automate and take over programming activities. With this technology, coders can establish code patterns, make source code based on models, and configure the coding process.

Using programmable interfaces, it's possible to arrange code creation as part of production procedures, making things more efficient, minimizing human error, and guaranteeing consistency when creating software.

Eden AI's Code Generation APIs utilize advanced deep learning models that have undergone extensive training on large amounts of top-quality code from various programming languages and paradigms.

These models have superior proficiency in comprehending developers' intentions, deciphering natural language questions, and producing precise code snippets, functions, or even complete programs.

Top Open Source (Free) Text to Code Generator models on the market

For users seeking a cost-effective engine, opting for an open-source model is the recommended choice. Here is the list of the best Text to Code Generator Open Source Models:

‍

1‍. CodeGeeX
CodeGeeX is a huge and versatile tool for creating code, trained in innumerable languages and boasting 13 billion parameters. As of June 22nd, 2022, CodeGeeX has been trained on over 850 billion tokens using a cluster packed with 1,536 Ascend 910 AI Processors.

It has been extensively tested and has unique functions including creating code in multiple languages, translating code across languages, and a customizable programming assistant.

‍

2. Duckargs
Duckargs exists to help you save time when you need to make a Python or C program that receives input from the command line. Simply execute duckargs (to produce python code), duckargs-python (which also generates python) or duckargs-c (which generates C code), specifying the desired options and example values. Duckargs will then produce a program that is able to handle those options and arguments.

‍

3. free-gpt-engineer
Specify what you want to create, and the AI will request clarification before generating it. Free-GPT-Engineer is designed to be flexible, expandable, and capable of learning your desired code format. It generates an entire codebase based on prompts.

‍

4. Django-code-generator
Create code swiftly using Django models. This tool allows you to produce a Django Rest Framework API or an admin for your application. Also, shape your templates to generate the unique code you need.

‍

5. CodeBERT
CodeBERT is a language model adapted to code-related tasks. It's a pre-trained model for programming languages, which is a multilingual model trained on Natural Language to Programming Language pairs in six programming languages: Python, Java, JavaScript, PHP, Ruby, and Go.

Cons of Using Open Source AI models

‍While open source models offer many advantages, they also come with some potential drawbacks and challenges. Here are some cons of using open source models:

‍

- Not Entirely Cost Free: Open-source models, while providing valuable resources to users, may not always be entirely free of cost. Users often need to bear expenses related to hosting and server usage, especially when dealing with large or resource-intensive data sets.
- Lack of Support: Open source models may not have official support channels or dedicated customer support teams. If you encounter issues or need assistance, you might have to rely on community forums or the goodwill of volunteers, which can be less reliable than commercial support.
- Limited Documentation: Some open source models may have incomplete or poorly maintained documentation. This can make it difficult for developers to understand how to use the model effectively, leading to frustration and wasted time.
- Security Concerns: Security vulnerabilities can exist in open source models, and it may take longer for these issues to be addressed compared to commercially supported models. Users of open source models may need to monitor for security updates and patches actively.
- Scalability and Performance: Open source models may not be as optimized for performance and scalability as commercial models. If your application requires high performance or needs to handle a large number of requests, you may need to invest more time in optimization.
