Text generation (TypeScript)
Use Chat Completions for a text request. Choose a current model ID and set an output token limit appropriate to your task.
This guide uses the official OpenAI client with TheRouter; it is not a TheRouter-owned SDK. The therouter and @therouter/sdk packages previously named here are not currently published in the public package registries.
Install and run
bash
npm install openaiSet THEROUTER_API_KEY on your server, then run:
typescript
import OpenAI from "openai";
const client = new OpenAI({ apiKey: process.env.THEROUTER_API_KEY, baseURL: "https://api.therouter.ai/v1" });
const completion = await client.chat.completions.create({
model: "openai/gpt-4o-mini",
messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello!" }],
max_tokens: 32,
});
console.log(completion.choices[0]?.message.content);
