Introduction

In this step-by-step guide, we will walk you through building a Dynamic Travel Planner using Replit and Dappier’s Real-Time Data Model API. This app will generate a customized travel itinerary based on the user’s chosen destination and number of days, providing real-time weather updates, hotel deals, and local attractions. By leveraging OpenAI’s LLMs and Dappier’s enriched real-time data, users can generate AI-powered travel plans within minutes.

Dappier Real-Time Data Model API

The Dappier Real-Time Data Model API enables applications to retrieve verified and up-to-date information from trusted sources across multiple domains, including weather, finance, and news. It allows seamless integration of real-time data into AI-powered applications.

​
Usage in Python

The API can be used to fetch real-time data with a simple function call: 
response = app.search_real_time_data(
   query="What is the stock price of Apple?",
   ai_model_id="am_01j06ytn18ejftedz6dyhz2b15"
)

​
Parameters

  • query (str): The user-provided search query. Example queries include:
    • "How is the weather today in Austin, TX?"
    • "What is the latest news for Meta?"
    • "What is the stock price for AAPL?"
  • ai_model_id (str): The AI model ID to use for the query.
    • AI model IDs always start with the prefix "am_".
    • Multiple AI model IDs are available at the Dappier Marketplace.
In our Dynamic Travel Planner, we will use this API to fetch weather updates and hotel deals dynamically.

​
Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have:

​
Step 1: Fork the Dappier Python Real-Time Data App

  1. Visit the Dappier Replit Integration Documentation.
  2. Click on the Dappier Python Real-Time Data link inside the page to open the template in Replit.
  3. Fork the app to create your own version.
  4. Rename the app to Dappier Dynamic Travel Planner.
  5. Add a detailed description such as:
    “A Dynamic Travel Planner that generates personalized itineraries based on user-inputted destinations and trip durations. It provides real-time weather updates, hotel deals, and attraction recommendations, powered by Dappier and OpenAI.”

​
Step 2: Set Up API Keys

​
1. Add the Dappier API Key

  1. Go to Dappier API Keys.
  2. Generate an API key.
  3. In Replit, open the Secrets Manager.
  4. Add a new secret:
    • Key: DAPPIER_API_KEY
    • Value: (Paste your Dappier API Key here)
  5. Click Save.

​
2. Add the OpenAI API Key

  1. Go to OpenAI API Keys.
  2. Generate an API key.
  3. In Replit, open the Secrets Manager.
  4. Add a new secret:
    • Key: OPENAI_API_KEY
    • Value: (Paste your OpenAI API Key here)
  5. Click Save.

​
Step 3: Run the App

  1. Click “Run” in Replit to check if everything is working correctly.
  2. The system will automatically install dependencies and generate necessary code for you.
  3. Accept any suggested changes by Replit.

​
Step 4: Generate the Travel Planner Using Replit’s AI Assistant

Instead of writing the code manually, Replit’s AI Assistant can generate the entire app for you by following these simple instructions:
  1. Open the Assistants App in Replit.
  2. Enter the following instructions:
    “Create a travel planner app that asks the user for their destination city and the number of days for the trip. Fetch real-time weather updates and hotel deals for the given destination using Dappier’s Real-Time Data API. Use OpenAI to generate a structured, well-balanced itinerary that includes local attractions, sightseeing options, and relaxation spots. The app should be interactive and provide users with dynamic travel recommendations.”
  3. Replit’s AI will automatically generate the code for your app.
  4. Accept the code suggestions and let Replit set up everything for you.
  5. Run the app to verify it works as expected.
By using Replit’s AI Assistant, you can build your Dynamic Travel Planner without writing a single line of code manually.

​
Step 5: Verify and Deploy

  1. Run the app again to verify that the itinerary is generated correctly.
  2. If everything looks good, deploy the app.
