# [OLD PROXY 👉 [**NEW** proxy here](./simple_proxy.md)] Local OpenAI Proxy Server
A fast, and lightweight OpenAI-compatible server to call 100+ LLM APIs.
:::info
Docs outdated. New docs 👉 [here](./simple_proxy.md)
:::
## Usage
```shell
pip install litellm[proxy]
```
```shell
$ litellm --model ollama/codellama
#INFO: Ollama running on http://0.0.0.0:8000
```
### Test
In a new shell, run:
```shell
$ litellm --test
```
### Replace openai base
```python
import openai
openai.api_base = "http://0.0.0.0:8000"
print(openai.ChatCompletion.create(model="test", messages=[{"role":"user", "content":"Hey!"}]))
```
#### Other supported models:
Assuming you're running vllm locally
```shell
$ litellm --model vllm/facebook/opt-125m
```
```shell
$ litellm --model openai/ --api_base
```
```shell
$ export HUGGINGFACE_API_KEY=my-api-key #[OPTIONAL]
$ litellm --model claude-instant-1
```
```shell
$ export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=my-api-key
$ litellm --model claude-instant-1
```
```shell
$ export TOGETHERAI_API_KEY=my-api-key
$ litellm --model together_ai/lmsys/vicuna-13b-v1.5-16k
```
```shell
$ export REPLICATE_API_KEY=my-api-key
$ litellm \
--model replicate/meta/llama-2-70b-chat:02e509c789964a7ea8736978a43525956ef40397be9033abf9fd2badfe68c9e3
```
```shell
$ litellm --model petals/meta-llama/Llama-2-70b-chat-hf
```
```shell
$ export PALM_API_KEY=my-palm-key
$ litellm --model palm/chat-bison
```
```shell
$ export AZURE_API_KEY=my-api-key
$ export AZURE_API_BASE=my-api-base
$ litellm --model azure/my-deployment-name
```
```shell
$ export AI21_API_KEY=my-api-key
$ litellm --model j2-light
```
```shell
$ export COHERE_API_KEY=my-api-key
$ litellm --model command-nightly
```
### Tutorial: Use with Multiple LLMs + LibreChat/Chatbot-UI/Auto-Gen/ChatDev/Langroid,etc.
Replace openai base:
```python
import openai
openai.api_key = "any-string-here"
openai.api_base = "http://0.0.0.0:8080" # your proxy url
# call openai
response = openai.ChatCompletion.create(model="gpt-3.5-turbo", messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hey"}])
print(response)
# call cohere
response = openai.ChatCompletion.create(model="command-nightly", messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hey"}])
print(response)
```
#### 1. Clone the repo
```shell
git clone https://github.com/danny-avila/LibreChat.git
```
#### 2. Modify `docker-compose.yml`
```yaml
OPENAI_REVERSE_PROXY=http://host.docker.internal:8000/v1/chat/completions
```
#### 3. Save fake OpenAI key in `.env`
```env
OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-1234
```
#### 4. Run LibreChat:
```shell
docker compose up
```
#### 1. Clone the repo
```shell
git clone https://github.com/dotneet/smart-chatbot-ui.git
```
#### 2. Install Dependencies
```shell
npm i
```
#### 3. Create your env
```shell
cp .env.local.example .env.local
```
#### 4. Set the API Key and Base
```env
OPENAI_API_KEY="my-fake-key"
OPENAI_API_HOST="http://0.0.0.0:8000
```
#### 5. Run with docker compose
```shell
docker compose up -d
```
```python
pip install pyautogen
```
```python
from autogen import AssistantAgent, UserProxyAgent, oai
config_list=[
{
"model": "my-fake-model",
"api_base": "http://0.0.0.0:8000", #litellm compatible endpoint
"api_type": "open_ai",
"api_key": "NULL", # just a placeholder
}
]
response = oai.Completion.create(config_list=config_list, prompt="Hi")
print(response) # works fine
llm_config={
"config_list": config_list,
}
assistant = AssistantAgent("assistant", llm_config=llm_config)
user_proxy = UserProxyAgent("user_proxy")
user_proxy.initiate_chat(assistant, message="Plot a chart of META and TESLA stock price change YTD.", config_list=config_list)

## Local Proxy
Here's how to use the local proxy to test codellama/mistral/etc. models for different github repos
```shell
pip install litellm
```
```shell
$ ollama pull codellama # OUR Local CodeLlama
$ litellm --model ollama/codellama --temperature 0.3 --max_tokens 2048
```
### Tutorial: Use with Multiple LLMs + Aider/AutoGen/Langroid/etc.
```shell
$ litellm
#INFO: litellm proxy running on http://0.0.0.0:8000
```
#### Send a request to your proxy
```python
import openai
openai.api_key = "any-string-here"
openai.api_base = "http://0.0.0.0:8080" # your proxy url
# call gpt-3.5-turbo
response = openai.ChatCompletion.create(model="gpt-3.5-turbo", messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hey"}])
print(response)
# call ollama/llama2
response = openai.ChatCompletion.create(model="ollama/llama2", messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hey"}])
print(response)
```
Continue-Dev brings ChatGPT to VSCode. See how to [install it here](https://continue.dev/docs/quickstart).
In the [config.py](https://continue.dev/docs/reference/Models/openai) set this as your default model.
```python
default=OpenAI(
api_key="IGNORED",
model="fake-model-name",
context_length=2048, # customize if needed for your model
api_base="http://localhost:8000" # your proxy server url
),
```

GPT-Pilot helps you build apps with AI Agents. [For more](https://github.com/Pythagora-io/gpt-pilot)
In your .env set the openai endpoint to your local server.
```
OPENAI_ENDPOINT=http://0.0.0.0:8000
OPENAI_API_KEY=my-fake-key
```
A guidance language for controlling large language models.
https://github.com/guidance-ai/guidance
**NOTE:** Guidance sends additional params like `stop_sequences` which can cause some models to fail if they don't support it.
**Fix**: Start your proxy using the `--drop_params` flag
```shell
litellm --model ollama/codellama --temperature 0.3 --max_tokens 2048 --drop_params
```
```python
import guidance
# set api_base to your proxy
# set api_key to anything
gpt4 = guidance.llms.OpenAI("gpt-4", api_base="http://0.0.0.0:8000", api_key="anything")
experts = guidance('''
{{#system~}}
You are a helpful and terse assistant.
{{~/system}}
{{#user~}}
I want a response to the following question:
{{query}}
Name 3 world-class experts (past or present) who would be great at answering this?
Don't answer the question yet.

## Advanced
### Logs
```shell
$ litellm --logs
```
This will return the most recent log (the call that went to the LLM API + the received response).
All logs are saved to a file called `api_logs.json` in the current directory.
### Configure Proxy
If you need to:
* save API keys
* set litellm params (e.g. drop unmapped params, set fallback models, etc.)
* set model-specific params (max tokens, temperature, api base, prompt template)
You can do set these just for that session (via cli), or persist these across restarts (via config file).
#### Save API Keys
```shell
$ litellm --api_key OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...
```
LiteLLM will save this to a locally stored config file, and persist this across sessions.
LiteLLM Proxy supports all litellm supported api keys. To add keys for a specific provider, check this list:
```shell
$ litellm --add_key HUGGINGFACE_API_KEY=my-api-key #[OPTIONAL]
```
```shell
$ litellm --add_key ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=my-api-key
```
```shell
$ litellm --add_key PERPLEXITYAI_API_KEY=my-api-key
```
```shell
$ litellm --add_key TOGETHERAI_API_KEY=my-api-key
```
```shell
$ litellm --add_key REPLICATE_API_KEY=my-api-key
```
```shell
$ litellm --add_key AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=my-key-id
$ litellm --add_key AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=my-secret-access-key
```
```shell
$ litellm --add_key PALM_API_KEY=my-palm-key
```
```shell
$ litellm --add_key AZURE_API_KEY=my-api-key
$ litellm --add_key AZURE_API_BASE=my-api-base
```
```shell
$ litellm --add_key AI21_API_KEY=my-api-key
```
```shell
$ litellm --add_key COHERE_API_KEY=my-api-key
```
E.g.: Set api base, max tokens and temperature.
**For that session**:
```shell
litellm --model ollama/llama2 \
--api_base http://localhost:11434 \
--max_tokens 250 \
--temperature 0.5
# OpenAI-compatible server running on http://0.0.0.0:8000
```
### Performance
We load-tested 500,000 HTTP connections on the FastAPI server for 1 minute, using [wrk](https://github.com/wg/wrk).
There are our results:
```shell
Thread Stats Avg Stdev Max +/- Stdev
Latency 156.38ms 25.52ms 361.91ms 84.73%
Req/Sec 13.61 5.13 40.00 57.50%
383625 requests in 1.00m, 391.10MB read
Socket errors: connect 0, read 1632, write 1, timeout 0
