# OpenAI API client library for Rust (unofficial)
The OpenAI API client Rust library provides convenient access to the OpenAI API from Rust applications.
Check out the [docs.rs](https://docs.rs/openai-api-rs/).
## Installation:
Cargo.toml
```toml
[dependencies]
openai-api-rs = "5.1.0"
```
## Usage
The library needs to be configured with your account's secret key, which is available on the [website](https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys). We recommend setting it as an environment variable. Here's an example of initializing the library with the API key loaded from an environment variable and creating a completion:
### Set OPENAI_API_KEY to environment variable
```bash
$ export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-xxxxxxx
```
### Create client
```rust
let client = OpenAIClient::new(env::var("OPENAI_API_KEY").unwrap().to_string());
```
### Create request
```rust
let req = ChatCompletionRequest::new(
GPT4_O.to_string(),
vec![chat_completion::ChatCompletionMessage {
role: chat_completion::MessageRole::user,
content: chat_completion::Content::Text(String::from("What is bitcoin?")),
name: None,
tool_calls: None,
tool_call_id: None,
}],
);
```
### Send request
```rust
let result = client.chat_completion(req)?;
println!("Content: {:?}", result.choices[0].message.content);
```
### Set OPENAI_API_BASE to environment variable (optional)
```bash
$ export OPENAI_API_BASE=https://api.openai.com/v1
```
## Example of chat completion
```rust
use openai_api_rs::v1::api::OpenAIClient;
use openai_api_rs::v1::chat_completion::{self, ChatCompletionRequest};
use openai_api_rs::v1::common::GPT4_O;
use std::env;
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
let client = OpenAIClient::new(env::var("OPENAI_API_KEY").unwrap().to_string());
let req = ChatCompletionRequest::new(
GPT4_O.to_string(),
vec![chat_completion::ChatCompletionMessage {
role: chat_completion::MessageRole::user,
content: chat_completion::Content::Text(String::from("What is bitcoin?")),
name: None,
tool_calls: None,
tool_call_id: None,
}],
);
let result = client.chat_completion(req).await?;
println!("Content: {:?}", result.choices[0].message.content);
println!("Response Headers: {:?}", result.headers);
Ok(())
}
```
