LLM Gateway

Open-source library built for fast and reliable connections to different LLM providers.

Typescript library: https://www.npmjs.com/package/llm-gateway

The LLM Gateway is a lightweight, open-source library built for fast and reliable connections to LLMs.

It simplifies integrations with multiple providers, offering fallbacks, caching, and minimal latency with a client-side solution.

Minimize Downtime: Automatic retries and fallbacks to secondary providers like Azure or Entropic.
Automatic input params convertion: Automatically convert input params between OpenAI, Anthropic and Azure formats for fallbacks.
Faster Responses: Direct client-side requests for low latency.
Unified Control: A single interface to manage requests across LLMs.
Unified Output: Consistent output format across LLMs.

    openAI/AnthropicOutput:{...}
    llmGatewayOutput: {
        type: 'text' | 'tool_calls';
        content: string; - content for text output
        tool_name: string; - name of the tool for tool_calls
        arguments: string - arguments for the tool.
    }[]
}

Easy Model Switching: Change between OpenAI, Anthropic, and Azure models with a simple configuration change.

Installation

To install the library, use npm or yarn:

pip install llmgateway

Usage

Here's a basic example of how to use the LLM Gateway library:

from src.llmgateway import LLMGateway
from src.types import ChatCompletionParams, EnumLLMProvider, LLMGatewayParams, Message

gateway = LLMGateway(
    LLMGatewayParams(
        provider=EnumLLMProvider.OPENAI,
        api_key='your-api-key'
    )
)
response = gateway.chat_completion(
    ChatCompletionParams(
        messages=[
            Message(role="user", content="Write a story about a cat.")
        ],
        model="gpt-4o-mini",
        temperature=0.7,
        max_completion_tokens=800
    )
)

LLM Fallbacks Configuration

The LLM Gateway library supports configuring fallbacks to ensure that if one model fails, another can be used as a backup. This is useful for maintaining service availability and reliability.

Example Configuration

from src.llmgateway import LLMGateway
from src.types import ChatCompletionParams, EnumLLMProvider, LLMGatewayConfig, LLMGatewayParams, Message


gateway = LLMGateway(
    LLMGatewayParams(
                provider= EnumLLMProvider.ANTHROPIC,
                api_key= keys['ANTHROPIC_API_KEY']
            )
    , LLMGatewayConfig(
        fallbacks= {
            'fallback_provider':LLMGatewayParams(
        provider=EnumLLMProvider.OPENAI,
        api_key=keys['OPENAI_KEY_FOR_FREE_DEMO']
    ) ,
            'fallback_model': 'gpt-4o-mini'
        }
    )
)
response = gateway.chat_completion(
    ChatCompletionParams(
        messages=[
            Message(role="user", content="Write a story about a cat.")
        ],
        model="claude-3-5-sonnet-latest",
        temperature=0.7,
    )
)
print(response)

Streaming Responses

The LLM Gateway supports streaming responses from all providers, with a unified interface that works consistently across OpenAI, Anthropic, and Azure.

Basic Streaming Example

from src.llmgateway import LLMGateway
from src.types import ChatCompletionParams, EnumLLMProvider, LLMGatewayParams, Message


gateway = LLMGateway(
    LLMGatewayParams(
        provider=EnumLLMProvider.OPENAI,
        api_key='your-api-key'
    )
)

stream = gateway.chat_completion_stream(
    ChatCompletionParams(
        messages=[
            Message(role="user", content="Write a story about a cat.")
        ],
        model="gpt-4o-mini",
        temperature=0.7,
        max_tokens=800
    )
)

for chunk in stream:
    print(chunk)

All streaming examples work consistently across different providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure) and automatically handle format conversion when falling back to a different provider.

Configuration
