Deepseek-Go is a Go client library for interacting with the Deepseek AI API, offering a type-safe interface for chat completions, streaming, and token usage. It also provides support for external providers like Azure, OpenRouter, and local Ollama instances, making it a versatile tool for developers integrating AI capabilities into Go applications.

How It Works

The library leverages Go's strong typing to provide a clean API for Deepseek's models, including deepseek-chat and deepseek-reasoner. It supports streaming responses for real-time interaction and includes features for managing conversation history. The modular design allows for easy extension and integration with other services, including custom providers that adhere to a similar API structure.
