Python client library for the Portkey API

Project description


Build reliable, secure, and production-ready AI apps easily.

pip install portkey-ai

💡 Features

🚪 AI Gateway:

  • Unified API Signature: If you've used OpenAI, you already know how to use Portkey with any other provider.
  • Interoperability: Write once, run with any provider. Switch between any model from any provider seamlessly.
  • Automated Fallbacks & Retries: Ensure your application remains functional even if a primary service fails.
  • Load Balancing: Efficiently distribute incoming requests among multiple models.
  • Semantic Caching: Reduce costs and latency by intelligently caching results.

🔬 Observability:

  • Logging: Keep track of all requests for monitoring and debugging.
  • Requests Tracing: Understand the journey of each request for optimization.
  • Custom Tags: Segment and categorize requests for better insights.

🚀 Quick Start

First, install the SDK & export Portkey API Key

Get Portkey API key here.

$ pip install portkey-ai
$ export PORTKEY_API_KEY=PORTKEY_API_KEY

Now, let's make a request with GPT-4

from portkey_ai import Portkey

# Construct a client with a virtual key
portkey = Portkey(
    api_key="PORTKEY_API_KEY",
    virtual_key="VIRTUAL_KEY"
)

completion = portkey.chat.completions.create(
    messages = [{ "role": 'user', "content": 'Say this is a test' }],
    model = 'gpt-3.5-turbo'
)
print(completion)

Portkey fully adheres to the OpenAI SDK signature. This means that you can instantly switch to Portkey and start using Portkey's advanced production features right out of the box.
