Installing the SDK

Our SDK allows your application to interact with LlamaAPI seamlessly, abstracting the handling of aiohttp sessions and headers, allowing for a simplified interaction with LlamaAPI.

​

Python

pip install llamaapi

​

Javascript

npm install llamaai

​

Usage

Once you have installed our library, you can follow the examples in this section to build powerfull applications, interacting with different models and making them invoke custom functions to enchance the user experience.

​

Python

import json
from llamaapi import LlamaAPI

# Initialize the SDK
llama = LlamaAPI("<your_api_token>")

# Build the API request
api_request_json = {
    "model": "llama3.1-70b",
    "messages": [
        {"role": "user", "content": "What is the weather like in Boston?"},
    ],
    "functions": [
        {
            "name": "get_current_weather",
            "description": "Get the current weather in a given location",
            "parameters": {
                "type": "object",
                "properties": {
                    "location": {
                        "type": "string",
                        "description": "The city and state, e.g. San Francisco, CA",
                    },
                    "days": {
                        "type": "number",
                        "description": "for how many days ahead you wants the forecast",
                    },
                    "unit": {"type": "string", "enum": ["celsius", "fahrenheit"]},
                },
            },
            "required": ["location", "days"],
        }
    ],
    "stream": False,
    "function_call": "get_current_weather",
}

# Execute the Request
response = llama.run(api_request_json)
print(json.dumps(response.json(), indent=2))

Other parameters that you can pass in the request json are:

{
  ...
  "max_token" = 500,
  "temperature"= 0.1,
  "top_p"= 1.0,
  "frequency_penalty"=1.0
  ...
}

​

Javascript

1. Import the Library:

   import LlamaAI from 'llamaai';
   

2. Initialize the Library:

   const apiToken = 'INSERT_YOUR_API_TOKEN_HERE';
   const llamaAPI = new LlamaAI(apiToken);
   

3. Make a Request

   // Build the Request
   const apiRequestJson = {
      "messages": [
          {"role": "user", "content": "What is the weather like in Boston?"},
      ],
      "functions": [
          {
              "name": "get_current_weather",
              "description": "Get the current weather in a given location",
              "parameters": {
                  "type": "object",
                  "properties": {
                      "location": {
                          "type": "string",
                          "description": "The city and state, e.g. San Francisco, CA",
                      },
                      "days": {
                          "type": "number",
                          "description": "for how many days ahead you wants the forecast",
                      },
                      "unit": {"type": "string", "enum": ["celsius", "fahrenheit"]},
                  },
              },
              "required": ["location", "days"],
          }
      ],
      "stream": false,
      "function_call": "get_current_weather",
     };
   
     // Execute the Request
      llamaAPI.run(apiRequestJson)
        .then(response => {
          // Process response
        })
        .catch(error => {
          // Handle errors
        });
