1## OpenAI compatible API2 3The main API for this project is meant to be a drop-in replacement to the OpenAI API, including Chat and Completions endpoints. 4 5* It is 100% offline and private.6* It doesn't create any logs.7* It doesn't connect to OpenAI.8* It doesn't use the openai-python library.9 10If you did not use the one-click installers, you may need to install the requirements first:11 12```13pip install -r extensions/openai/requirements.txt14```15 16### Starting the API17 18Add `--api` to your command-line flags.19 20* To create a public Cloudflare URL, add the `--public-api` flag.21* To listen on your local network, add the `--listen` flag.22* To change the port, which is 5000 by default, use `--api-port 1234` (change 1234 to your desired port number).23* To use SSL, add `--ssl-keyfile key.pem --ssl-certfile cert.pem`. Note that it doesn't work with `--public-api`.24* To use an API key for authentication, add `--api-key yourkey`.25 26### Examples27 28For the documentation with all the parameters and their types, consult `http://127.0.0.1:5000/docs` or the [typing.py](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/blob/main/extensions/openai/typing.py) file.29 30The official examples in the [OpenAI documentation](https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference) should also work, and the same parameters apply (although the API here has more optional parameters).31 32#### Completions33 34```shell35curl http://127.0.0.1:5000/v1/completions \36 -H "Content-Type: application/json" \37 -d '{38 "prompt": "This is a cake recipe:\n\n1.",39 "max_tokens": 200,40 "temperature": 1,41 "top_p": 0.9,42 "seed": 1043 }'44```45 46#### Chat completions47 48Works best with instruction-following models. If the "instruction_template" variable is not provided, it will be guessed automatically based on the model name using the regex patterns in `models/config.yaml`.49 50```shell51curl http://127.0.0.1:5000/v1/chat/completions \52 -H "Content-Type: application/json" \53 -d '{54 "messages": [55 {56 "role": "user",57 "content": "Hello!"58 }59 ],60 "mode": "instruct",61 "instruction_template": "Alpaca"62 }'63```64 65#### Chat completions with characters66 67```shell68curl http://127.0.0.1:5000/v1/chat/completions \69 -H "Content-Type: application/json" \70 -d '{71 "messages": [72 {73 "role": "user",74 "content": "Hello!

make sure the environment variables are set before import281import openai282```283 284With the [official Node.js openai client](https://github.com/openai/openai-node) it is slightly more more complex because the environment variables are not used by default, so small source code changes may be required to use the environment variables, like so:285 286```js287const openai = OpenAI(288 Configuration({289 apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY,290 basePath: process.env.OPENAI_API_BASE291 })292);293```294 295For apps made with the [chatgpt-api Node.js client library](https://github.com/transitive-bullshit/chatgpt-api):296 297```js298const api = new ChatGPTAPI({299 apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY,300 apiBaseUrl: process.env.OPENAI_API_BASE301});302```303### Embeddings (alpha)304 305Embeddings requires `sentence-transformers` installed, but chat and completions will function without it loaded. The embeddings endpoint is currently using the HuggingFace model: `sentence-transformers/all-mpnet-base-v2` for embeddings. This produces 768 dimensional embeddings (the same as the text-davinci-002 embeddings), which is different from OpenAI's current default `text-embedding-ada-002` model which produces 1536 dimensional embeddings. The model is small-ish and fast-ish. This model and embedding size may change in the future.306 307| model name | dimensions | input max tokens | speed | size | Avg. performance |308| ---------------------- | ---------- | ---------------- | ----- | ---- | ---------------- |309| text-embedding-ada-002 | 1536 | 8192 | - | - | - |310| text-davinci-002 | 768 | 2046 | - | - | - |311| all-mpnet-base-v2 | 768 | 384 | 2800 | 420M | 63.3 |312| all-MiniLM-L6-v2 | 384 | 256 | 14200 | 80M | 58.8 |313 314In short, the all-MiniLM-L6-v2 model is 5x faster, 5x smaller ram, 2x smaller storage, and still offers good quality. Stats from (https://www.sbert.net/docs/pretrained_models.html). To change the model from the default you can set the environment variable `OPENEDAI_EMBEDDING_MODEL`, ex. "OPENEDAI_EMBEDDING_MODEL=all-MiniLM-L6-v2".315 316Warning: You cannot mix embeddings from different models even if they have the same dimensions. They are not comparable.317 318### Compatibility & not so compatibility319 320Note: the table below may be obsolete.321 322| API endpoint | tested with | notes |323| ------------------------- | ---------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |324| /v1/chat/completions | openai.ChatCompletion.create() | Use it with instruction following models |325| /v1/embeddings | openai.Embedding.create() | Using SentenceTransformer embeddings |326| /v1/images/generations | openai.Image.create() | Bare bones, no model configuration, response_format='b64_json' only. |327| /v1/moderations | openai.Moderation.create() | Basic initial support via embeddings |328| /v1/models | openai.Model.list() | Lists models, Currently loaded model first, plus some compatibility options |329| /v1/models/{id} | openai.Model.get() | returns whatever you ask for |330| /v1/edits | openai.Edit.create() | Removed, use /v1/chat/completions instead |331| /v1/text_completion | openai.Completion.create() | Legacy endpoint, variable quality based on the model |332| /v1/completions | openai api completions.create | Legacy endpoint (v0.25) |333| /v1/engines/\*/embeddings | python-openai v0.25 | Legacy endpoint |334| /v1/engines/\*/generate | openai engines.generate | Legacy endpoint |335| /v1/engines | openai engines.list | Legacy Lists models |336| /v1/engines/{model_name} | openai engines.get -i {model_name} | You can use this legacy endpoint to load models via the api or command line |337| /v1/images/edits | openai.Image.create_edit() | not yet supported |338| /v1/images/variations | openai.Image.create_variation() | not yet supported |339| /v1/audio/\* | openai.Audio.\* | supported |340| /v1/files\* | openai.Files.\* | not yet supported |341| /v1/fine-tunes\* | openai.FineTune.\* | not yet supported |342| /v1/search | openai.search, engines.search | not yet supported |343 344#### Applications345 346Almost everything needs the `OPENAI_API_KEY` and `OPENAI_API_BASE` environment variable set, but there are some exceptions.347 348Note: the table below may be obsolete.349 350| Compatibility | Application/Library | Website | Notes |351| ------------- | ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |352| ✅❌ | openai-python (v0.25+) | https://github.com/openai/openai-python | only the endpoints from above are working.
