A Provider captures the details of one chatbot service/API. This captures
how the API works, not the details of the underlying large language model.
Different providers might offer the same (open source) model behind a
different API.
Usage
Provider(
name = stop("Required"),
model = stop("Required"),
base_url = stop("Required"),
params = list(),
extra_args = list()
)
Arguments
- name
Name of the provider.
- model
Name of the model.
- base_url
The base URL for the API.
- params
A list of standard parameters created by params()
.
Arbitrary extra arguments to be included in the request body.
Value
An S7 Provider object.
Details
To add support for a new backend, you will need to subclass Provider
(adding any additional fields that your provider needs) and then implement
the various generics that control the behavior of each provider.
Examples
Provider(
name = "CoolModels",
model = "my_model",
base_url = "https://cool-models.com"
)
#> <ellmer::Provider>
#> @ name : chr "CoolModels"
#> @ model : chr "my_model"
#> @ base_url : chr "https://cool-models.com"
#> @ params : list()
#> @ extra_args: list()
