Add TimeGPT to modeltime

[vidarsumo]

Would it be possible to add TimeGPT to modeltime?

It's easy to call the API using httr package in R. There also is a Python SDK: https://docs.nixtla.io/reference/timegpt_timegpt_post.

The fable team has also create new package, fable.timegpt (https://github.com/mitchelloharawild/fable.timegpt).

So, just wondering how much work it would be to include this in your awesome package :)

Hi @mdancho84 and @vidarsumo, this sounds like an amazing idea! Let us put it in the backlog and come back to you.

Thanks so much @mergenthaler ! I look forward to the collaboration.

@mergenthaler I'm considering adding a modeltime.nixtla R wrapper package that allows users to integrate nixtla TimeGPT into modeltime. I'd need a temporary API key for debugging.

Another option is to add the modeltime / tidymodels wrapper in nixtlar package. And I can certainly help with this.
