OpenAI

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-3.5-turbo.

Usage

ExampleRun in Val Town ↗
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:
ExampleRun in Val Town ↗
import { OpenAI } from "npm:openai";
const openai = new OpenAI();
