haimaker - Getting Started

Call 100+ LLMs using the OpenAI Input/Output Format​

  • Translate inputs to provider's completion, embedding, and image_generation endpoints
  • Consistent output, text responses will always be available at ['choices'][0]['message']['content']
  • Retry/fallback logic across multiple deployments (e.g. Azure/OpenAI) - Router
  • Track spend & set budgets per project haimaker Proxy Server

How to use haimaker​

haimaker python SDK - Python Client to call 100+ LLMs, load balance, cost tracking

tip

Use haimaker Python SDK if you want to use haimaker in your python code

Typically used by developers building llm projects

  • haimaker SDK gives you a unified interface to access multiple LLMs (100+ LLMs)
  • Retry/fallback logic across multiple deployments (e.g. Azure/OpenAI) - Router

haimaker Python SDK​

Basic usage​

# currently haimaker uses litellm's client library
pip install litellm
from litellm import completion
import os

## set ENV variables
os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = "your-api-key"

response = completion(
  model="openai/gpt-4o",
  messages=[{ "content": "Hello, how are you?","role": "user"}]
)

    }
}

Streaming​

Set stream=True in the completion args.

from litellm import completion
import os

## set ENV variables
os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = "your-api-key"

response = completion(
  model="openai/gpt-4o",
  messages=[{ "content": "Hello, how are you?","role": "user"}],
  stream=True,
)

            },
            "logprobs": null
        }
    ]
}

Exception handling​

haimaker maps exceptions across all supported providers to the OpenAI exceptions. All our exceptions inherit from OpenAI's exception types, so any error-handling you have for that, should work out of the box with haimaker.

from openai.error import OpenAIError
from litellm import completion

os.environ["ANTHROPIC_API_KEY"] = "bad-key"
try:
    # some code
    completion(model="claude-instant-1", messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hey, how's it going?"}])
except OpenAIError as e:
    print(e)

Logging Observability - Log LLM Input/Output (Docs)​

haimaker exposes pre defined callbacks to send data to Lunary, MLflow, Langfuse, Helicone, Promptlayer, Traceloop, Slack

from litellm import completion

## set env variables for logging tools (API key set up is not required when using MLflow)
os.environ["LUNARY_PUBLIC_KEY"] = "your-lunary-public-key" # get your public key at https://app.lunary.ai/settings
os.environ["HELICONE_API_KEY"] = "your-helicone-key"
os.environ["LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY"] = ""
os.environ["LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY"] = ""

os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"]

# set callbacks
litellm.success_callback = ["lunary", "mlflow", "langfuse", "helicone"] # log input/output to lunary, mlflow, langfuse, helicone

#openai call
response = completion(model="gpt-3.5-turbo", messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hi 👋 - i'm openai"}])

Track Costs, Usage, Latency for streaming​

Use a callback function for this - more info on custom callbacks: https://docs.haimaker.ai/docs/observability/custom_callback

import litellm

# track_cost_callback
def track_cost_callback(
    kwargs,                 # kwargs to completion
    completion_response,    # response from completion
    start_time, end_time    # start/end time
):
    try:
      response_cost = kwargs.get("response_cost", 0)
      print("streaming response_cost", response_cost)
    except:
        pass
# set callback
litellm.success_callback = [track_cost_callback] # set custom callback function

# litellm.completion() call
response = completion(
    model="gpt-3.5-turbo",
    messages=[
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": "Hi 👋 - i'm openai"
        }
    ],
    stream=True
)
