GitHub (via Azure) hosts a number of open source and OpenAI models. To access the GitHub model marketplace, you will need to apply for and be accepted into the beta access program. See https://github.com/marketplace/models for details.

This function is a lightweight wrapper around chat_openai() with the defaults tweaked for the GitHub model marketplace.

Usage

chat_github(
  system_prompt = NULL,
  turns = NULL,
  base_url = "https://models.inference.ai.azure.com/",
  api_key = github_key(),
  model = NULL,
  seed = NULL,
  api_args = list(),
  echo = NULL
)

Arguments

system_prompt

A system prompt to set the behavior of the assistant.

turns

A list of Turns to start the chat with (i.e., continuing a previous conversation). If not provided, the conversation begins from scratch.

base_url

The base URL to the endpoint; the default uses OpenAI.

api_key

The API key to use for authentication. You generally should not supply this directly, but instead manage your GitHub credentials as described in https://usethis.r-lib.org/articles/git-credentials.html.

model

The model to use for the chat. The default, NULL, will pick a reasonable default, and tell you about. We strongly recommend explicitly choosing a model for all but the most casual use.

seed

Optional integer seed that ChatGPT uses to try and make output more reproducible.

api_args

Named list of arbitrary extra arguments appended to the body of every chat API call.

echo

One of the following options:

  • none: don't emit any output (default when running in a function).

  • text: echo text output as it streams in (default when running at the console).

  • all: echo all input and output.

Note this only affects the chat() method.

Value

A Chat object.
