WEB222 Form + API Example

This example shows how to connect a simple <form> to the OpenAI Chat API in the browser.

Instructions

Install the dependencies:

npm install

Create an OpenAI Account and get your Secret API Key.

Create a file named .env in the root of the project and add your API Key to it. You can use the env.example file to help you:

cp env.example .env

Now edit .env and replace the ... with your API key.

Bundle the code and start a server:

npm start

You can now try the app at http://localhost:1234.

Warning

Do NOT put this code on the public internet, since it would expose your Secret API KEY. It is fine to run it locally, however.
