Usage

1

Create a virtual environment

Open the Terminal and create a python virtual environment.
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
2

Set your API key

export IBM_WATSONX_API_KEY=xxx
export IBM_WATSONX_PROJECT_ID=xxx
3

Install libraries

pip install -U ibm-watsonx-ai pydantic rich agno
4

Run Agent

python cookbook/models/ibm/watsonx/structured_output.py
This example shows how to use structured output with IBM WatsonX. It defines a Pydantic model MovieScript with various fields and their descriptions, then creates an agent using this model as the output_schema. The model’s output will be parsed into this structured format.
