uAgents is a library developed by Fetch.ai that allows for creating autonomous AI agents in Python. With simple and expressive decorators, you can have an agent that performs various tasks on a schedule or takes action on various events.
- 🤖 Easy creation and management: Create any type of agent you can think of and put into code.
- 🔗 Connected: On startup, each agent automatically joins the fast growing network of uAgents by registering on the Almanac, a smart contract deployed on the Fetch.ai blockchain.
- 🔒 Secure: uAgent messages and wallets are cryptographically secured, so their identities and assets are protected.
Get started with uAgents by installing it for Python 3.8 to 3.12:
pip install uagents
Build your first uAgent using the following script:
from uagents import Agent, Context
alice = Agent(name="alice", seed="alice recovery phrase")
Include a seed parameter when creating an agent to set fixed addresses, or leave it out to generate random addresses each time.
Give it a simple task, such as greeting:
@alice.on_interval(period=2.0)
async def say_hello(ctx: Context):
ctx.logger.info(f'hello, my name is {ctx.name}')
if __name__ == "__main__":
alice.run()
So far, your code should look like this:
from uagents import Agent, Context
alice = Agent(name="alice", seed="alice recovery phrase")
@alice.on_interval(period=2.0)
async def say_hello(ctx: Context):
ctx.logger.info(f'hello, my name is {ctx.name}')
if __name__ == "__main__":
alice.run()
Run it using:
python agent.py
You should see the results in your terminal.
Please see the official documentation for full setup instructions and advanced features.
