Portkey SDK Integration with Github Models

Portkey provides a consistent API to interact with models from various providers. To integrate Github Models with Portkey:

​
1. Install the Portkey SDK

  • NodeJS
  • Python
npm install --save portkey-ai

​
2. Initialize Portkey with Github Models

To use Github with Portkey, get your API key from here, then add it to Portkey to create the virtual key.
  • NodeJS SDK
  • Python SDK
import Portkey from 'portkey-ai'

const portkey = new Portkey({
    apiKey: "PORTKEY_API_KEY", // defaults to process.env["PORTKEY_API_KEY"]
    provider:"@GITHUB_PROVIDER" // Your Github Models virtual key
})

​
3. Invoke Chat Completions

  • NodeJS SDK
  • Python SDK
const chatCompletion = await portkey.chat.completions.create({
    messages: [{ role: 'user', content: 'Say this is a test' }],
    model: 'Phi-3-small-128k-instruct',
});

console.log(chatCompletion.choices);

​
