OpenAI - Docs ↗

Use OpenAI's chat completion API with std/openai. This integration enables access to OpenAI's language models without needing to acquire API keys.

For free Val Town users, all calls are sent to gpt-4o-mini.

Usage

Create val
import { OpenAI } from "https://esm.town/v/std/openai"; const openai = new OpenAI(); const completion = await openai.chat.completions.create({ messages: [ { role: "user", content: "Say hello in a creative way" }, ], model: "gpt-4", max_tokens: 30, }); console.log(completion.choices[0].message.content);

Limits

While our wrapper simplifies the integration of OpenAI, there are a few limitations to keep in mind:

  • Usage Quota: We limit each user to 10 requests per minute.
  • Features: Chat completions is the only endpoint available.

If these limits are too low, let us know! You can also get around the limitation by using your own keys:

  1. Create your own API key on OpenAI's website
  2. Create an environment variable named OPENAI_API_KEY
  3. Use the OpenAI client from npm:openai:
Create val
import { OpenAI } from "npm:openai"; const openai = new OpenAI();
