This repository provides Go client libraries for interacting with OpenAI's API, targeting developers building applications that leverage AI models for text generation, image creation, and audio processing. It offers a convenient and idiomatic Go interface to these powerful services.

How It Works

The library is built around making direct HTTP requests to OpenAI's RESTful API endpoints. It serializes Go structs into JSON for requests and deserializes JSON responses back into Go structs, abstracting away the low-level network communication and data formatting. This approach ensures compatibility with the official API and allows for straightforward integration into existing Go projects.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Install: go get github.com/rakyll/openai-go
• Prerequisites: OpenAI API key set as the OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable.
• Documentation: https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/rakyll/openai-go

Highlighted Details

• Supports multiple OpenAI API endpoints including completions, chat, edits, moderations, audio, and embeddings.
• Image generation API is currently under development (marked with 🚧).
• Designed for idiomatic Go usage.

Maintenance & Community

• Maintained by the rakyll organization.
• No explicit community links (Discord, Slack) or roadmap are provided in the README.

Licensing & Compatibility

• License: Not specified in the README.
• Compatibility: Assumed to be compatible with any Go project. Commercial use depends on OpenAI's API terms of service.

Limitations & Caveats

The image generation API is marked as under development, indicating potential instability or incomplete functionality for that specific feature. The README does not specify the Go version requirements or provide detailed contribution guidelines.
