# Quick Test: Novita AI Connection with Anaconda

## Step-by-Step Instructions

### 1. Open Anaconda Prompt
- Search for "Anaconda Prompt" in Windows Start menu
- This ensures conda commands work properly

### 2. Navigate to Project Directory
```bash
cd C:\Users\85jat\GenAI_work_V2\Prototyping\Research_AI_Assistant_V2\Research_AI_Assistant_API
```

### 3. Create Conda Environment (First Time Only)
```bash
conda create -n research-ai-assistant python=3.10 -y
```

### 4. Activate Environment
```bash
conda activate research-ai-assistant
```

### 5. Install Required Packages
```bash
pip install openai>=1.0.0
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

### 6. Set Environment Variables
```bash
# Set your Novita API key
set NOVITA_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
set NOVITA_BASE_URL=https://api.novita.ai/dedicated/v1/openai
set NOVITA_MODEL=deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-7B:de-1a706eeafbf3ebc2
```

### 7. Run Test
```bash
python test_novita_connection.py
```

## Alternative: Use Batch Script

Simply double-click or run:
```bash
test_novita_conda.bat
```

## Expected Output

## Troubleshooting

**If conda command not found:**
- Use Anaconda Prompt instead of regular PowerShell
- Or run: `C:\Users\85jat\anaconda3\Scripts\activate.bat` (adjust path as needed)

**If environment activation fails:**
- Create environment first: `conda create -n research-ai-assistant python=3.10`

**If import errors:**
- Ensure environment is activated: `conda activate research-ai-assistant`
- Install packages: `pip install openai>=1.0.0`
