OpenAI API wrapper for Julia (Unofficial)

Overview

Provides a community maintained Julia wrapper to the OpenAI API. For API functionality see reference documentation. Autogenerated documentation can be found here: https://juliaml.github.io/OpenAI.jl/dev/

Usage

using Pkg; Pkg.add("OpenAI")

Quick Start

1. Create an OpenAI account, if you don't already have one

2. Create a secret API key

3. Choose a model to interact with

⚠️ We strongly suggest setting up your API key as an ENV variable.

secret_key = ENV["OPENAI_API_KEY"]
model = "gpt-4o-mini"
prompt =  "Say \"this is a test\""

r = create_chat(
    secret_key,
    model,
    [Dict("role" => "user", "content"=> prompt)]
  )
println(r.response[:choices][begin][:message][:content])

returns

"This is a test."

Overriding default parameters

If you have a non-standard setup, such as a local LLM or third-party service that conforms to the OpenAI interface, you can override parameters using the OpenAIProvider struct in your application like this:

using OpenAI
provider = OpenAI.OpenAIProvider(
    api_key=ENV["OPENAI_API_KEY"],
    base_url=ENV["OPENAI_BASE_URL_OVERRIDE"]
)
response = create_chat(
    provider,
    "gpt-4o-mini",
    [Dict("role" => "user", "content" => "Write some ancient Greek poetry")]
)

For more use cases see tests.
