response = rax.chat(
    model="rax-4.0",
    messages=[
        {"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}
    ]
)

print(response["choices"][0]["message"]["content"])

Configuration

from rax_ai import RaxAI

rax = RaxAI(
    api_key="your-key",
    base_url="https://ai.raxcore.dev/api",  # default
    timeout=30  # seconds, default
)

Core Methods

Chat Completions

response = rax.chat(
    model="rax-4.0",
    messages=[
        {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
        {"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum computing"}
    ],
    max_tokens=150,
    temperature=0.7,
    top_p=0.9
)

print(response["choices"][0]["message"]["content"])

Streaming Chat

for chunk in rax.chat_stream(
    model="rax-4.0",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Tell me a story..."}]
):
    print(chunk, end="", flush=True)

Models Management

# Get available models
models = rax.get_models()
print("Available models:", [m["id"] for m in models["data"]])

# Validate API key
is_valid = rax.validate_key()
print("Key valid:", is_valid)

Usage Analytics

# Get current usage
usage = rax.get_usage()
print("Total requests:", usage["total_requests"])
print("Total tokens:", usage["total_tokens"])

# Get usage for date range
monthly_usage = rax.get_usage(
    start_date="2024-01-01", 
    end_date="2024-01-31"
)
print("Monthly breakdown:", monthly_usage["daily_breakdown"])

Error Handling

from rax_ai import RaxAI, RaxAIError

try:
    response = rax.chat(
        model="rax-4.0",
        messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
    )
except RaxAIError as e:
    print(f"API Error: {e.message}")
    print(f"Status: {e.status_code}")
    print(f"Type: {e.error_type}")
    print(f"Details: {e.to_dict()}")

Environment Variables

# .env
RAX_AI_API_KEY=your-key-here

import os
from rax_ai import RaxAI

rax = RaxAI(api_key=os.getenv("RAX_AI_API_KEY"))

Framework Integration

FastAPI

from fastapi import FastAPI
from rax_ai import RaxAI

app = FastAPI()
rax = RaxAI(api_key=os.getenv("RAX_AI_API_KEY"))

@app.post("/chat")
async def chat_endpoint(message: str):
    response = rax.chat(
        model="rax-4.0",
        messages=[{"role": "user", "content": message}]
    )
    return response

Flask

from flask import Flask, request, jsonify
from rax_ai import RaxAI

app = Flask(__name__)
rax = RaxAI(api_key=os.getenv("RAX_AI_API_KEY"))

@app.route("/chat", methods=["POST"])
def chat():
    message = request.json["message"]
    response = rax.chat(
        model="rax-4.0",
        messages=[{"role": "user", "content": message}]
    )
    return jsonify(response)

Django

# views.py
from django.http import JsonResponse
from rax_ai import RaxAI
import json

rax = RaxAI(api_key=settings.RAX_AI_API_KEY)

def chat_view(request):
    data = json.loads(request.body)
    response = rax.chat(
        model="rax-4.0",
        messages=[{"role": "user", "content": data["message"]}]
    )
    return JsonResponse(response)

Advanced Usage

Configuration Management

# Get current config
config = rax.get_config()
print("Base URL:", config["base_url"])
print("Timeout:", config["timeout"])

Retry Logic

• 3 automatic retries for network errors
• Exponential backoff (1s, 2s, 4s delays)
• Smart error classification (no retry for 4xx errors)
• Timeout handling with configurable timeouts

Python Version Support

• ✅ Python 3.7+
• ✅ Python 3.8+
• ✅ Python 3.9+
• ✅ Python 3.10+
• ✅ Python 3.11+
