Issues with OPENAI_API_KEY and OPENAI_API_BASE in the Latest Update

[yashkite]

in newer update

set OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-dummy1234
set OPENAI_API_BASE=http://localhost:1234/v1

These commands are not taking effect. Instead of communicating with the local server, they are trying to connect to the open-ai website.

We do not officially support self-built models, please refer to #27

The new openai api supports base url, but this is only used to forward requests to openai, not for a self-built service. You can return to the old version of openai api (still compatible in ChatDev) or discuss the self-built service issues in the new openai api in our discord.

Thanks

For me it wasn't OPENAI_API_BASE, but BASE_URL.
After setting this, everything works fine with LiteLLM + Ollama

Found this comment and it worked as you said it will not work properly so i will fall back to the old version i guess
