Motivation for the Change
The primary motivation for this change is to enhance the modularity, flexibility, and testability of the
AzureOpenAIChatCompletionService
. By depending on an interface (ITextGenerationService
) rather than a concrete implementation (AzureOpenAITextGenerator
), we can make the service more adaptable to future changes and varying requirements in text generation logic.AzureOpenAIChatCompletionService
from the specific implementation details ofAzureOpenAITextGenerator
, promoting a more maintainable code structure.ITextGenerationService
for testing purposes, without relying on the actual Azure service.Context
In the original setup, the
AzureOpenAIChatCompletionService
was tightly coupled to a specific text generation implementation provided byAzureOpenAITextGenerator
. As the application develops, the need for integrating other text generation models or services may arise. This change allows for a more robust architecture that can accommodate such adaptations without major refactoring efforts.High-Level Description
The
AzureOpenAIChatCompletionService
now utilizes an interface,ITextGenerationService
, for its text generation operations. This redesign includes:Interface Definition: The
ITextGenerationService
interface defines the contract for any text generation service. It outlines the methods that must be implemented, providing a common ground for various text generation logic implementations.Implementation Variability: The
AzureOpenAITextGenerator
can still serve as a concrete implementation of this interface, but now it's just one of many potential implementations. Other text generation services can easily be integrated in the future by creating new classes that implementITextGenerationService
.Dependency Injection: The
AzureOpenAIChatCompletionService
will now receive an instance ofITextGenerationService
through dependency injection, allowing for greater control over how services are instantiated and managed within the application.This change supports a more scalable and maintainable architecture, aligning with best practices in software design such as dependency inversion and interface segregation.
