## Usage
Add the following to your Cargo.toml file:
```toml
openai_api_rust = "0.1.9"
```
Export your API key into the environment variables
```bash
export OPENAI_API_KEY=<your_api_key>
```
Then use the crate in your Rust code:
```rust
use openai_api_rust::*;
use openai_api_rust::chat::*;
use openai_api_rust::completions::*;
fn main() {
// Load API key from environment OPENAI_API_KEY.
// You can also hadcode through `Auth::new(<your_api_key>)`, but it is not recommended.
let auth = Auth::from_env().unwrap();
let openai = OpenAI::new(auth, "https://api.openai.com/v1/");
let body = ChatBody {
model: "gpt-3.5-turbo".to_string(),
max_tokens: Some(7),
temperature: Some(0_f32),
top_p: Some(0_f32),
n: Some(2),
stream: Some(false),
stop: None,
presence_penalty: None,
frequency_penalty: None,
logit_bias: None,
user: None,
messages: vec![Message { role: Role::User, content: "Hello!".to_string() }],
};
let rs = openai.chat_completion_create(&body);
let choice = rs.unwrap().choices;
let message = &choice[0].message.as_ref().unwrap();
assert!(message.content.contains("Hello"));
}
```
### Use proxy
Load proxy from env
```rust
let openai = OpenAI::new(auth, "https://api.openai.com/v1/")
.use_env_proxy();
```
Set the proxy manually
```rust
let openai = OpenAI::new(auth, "https://api.openai.com/v1/")
.set_proxy("http://127.0.0.1:1080");
```
