📚 Usage Examples

Making Requests

To make requests through the gateway, use the /v1/* endpoint and specify the provider using the x-provider header.

Example: AWS Bedrock Request

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "x-provider: bedrock" \
  -H "x-aws-access-key-id: YOUR_ACCESS_KEY" \
  -H "x-aws-secret-access-key: YOUR_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "x-aws-region: us-east-1" \
  -d '{
    "model": "anthropic.claude-3-sonnet-20240229-v1:0",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
  }'

Example: OpenAI Request

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/v1/chat/completions \

  -H "x-provider: openai" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer your-openai-api-key" \
  -d '{
    "model": "gpt-4",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
  }'

Example: GROQ Request

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/v1/chat/completions \

  -H "x-provider: groq" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer your-groq-api-key" \
  -d '{
    "model": "llama2-70b-4096",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}],
    "stream": true,
    "max_tokens": 300
  }'

Example: Anthropic Request

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "x-provider: anthropic" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer your-anthropic-api-key" \

    "stream": true,
    "max_tokens": 300,
    "temperature": 0.6,
    "top_p": 1,
    "top_k": 40
  }'

Example: Together AI Request

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "x-provider: together" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer your-together-api-key" \
  -d '{
    "model": "meta-llama/Llama-2-7b-chat-hf",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Write a poem"}],
    "stream": true,
    "max_tokens": 512,
    "temperature": 0.7,
    "top_p": 0.7,
    "top_k": 50,
    "repetition_penalty": 1
  }'

SDK Compatibility

The MagicAPI AI Gateway is designed to work seamlessly with popular AI SDKs. You can use the official OpenAI SDK to interact with any supported provider by simply configuring the baseURL and adding the appropriate provider header.

Using with OpenAI's Official Node.js SDK

import OpenAI from 'openai';

// Configure the SDK to use MagicAPI Gateway
const openai = new OpenAI({
  apiKey: process.env.PROVIDER_API_KEY, // Use any provider's API key
  baseURL: "http://localhost:3000/v1/", // Point to the gateway
  defaultHeaders: {
    "x-provider": "groq", // Specify the provider you want to use
  },
});

// Make requests as usual
const chatCompletion = await openai.chat.completions.create({
  messages: [
    { role: "system", content: "Write a poem" },
    { role: "user", content: "" }
  ],
  model: "llama-3.1-8b-instant",
  temperature: 1,
  max_tokens: 100,
  top_p: 1,
  stream: false,
});

You can easily switch between providers by changing the x-provider header and API key:

// For OpenAI
const openaiClient = new OpenAI({
  apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY,
  baseURL: "http://localhost:3000/v1/",
  defaultHeaders: { "x-provider": "openai" },
});

// For AWS Bedrock
const bedrockClient = new OpenAI({
  apiKey: process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, // Use AWS access key
  baseURL: "http://localhost:3000/v1/",
  defaultHeaders: {
    "x-provider": "bedrock",
    "x-aws-access-key-id": process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
    "x-aws-secret-access-key": process.env.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY,
    "x-aws-region": process.env.AWS_REGION || "us-east-1"
  },
});

// For Anthropic
const anthropicClient = new OpenAI({
  apiKey: process.env.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY,
  baseURL: "http://localhost:3000/v1/",
  defaultHeaders: { "x-provider": "anthropic" },
});

// For GROQ
const groqClient = new OpenAI({
  apiKey: process.env.GROQ_API_KEY,
  baseURL: "http://localhost:3000/v1/",
  defaultHeaders: { "x-provider": "groq" },
});

// For Fireworks
const fireworksClient = new OpenAI({
  apiKey: process.env.FIREWORKS_API_KEY,
  baseURL: "http://localhost:3000/v1/",
  defaultHeaders: { "x-provider": "fireworks" },
});

// For Together AI
const togetherClient = new OpenAI({
  apiKey: process.env.TOGETHER_API_KEY,
  baseURL: "http://localhost:3000/v1/",
  defaultHeaders: { "x-provider": "together" },
});

The gateway automatically handles the necessary transformations to ensure compatibility with each provider's API format while maintaining the familiar OpenAI SDK interface.

🔧 Configuration

The gateway can be configured using environment variables:

RUST_LOG=debug # Logging level (debug, info, warn, error)

🏗️ Architecture

The gateway leverages the best-in-class Rust ecosystem:

  • Axum - High-performance web framework
  • Tokio - Industry-standard async runtime
  • Tower-HTTP - Robust HTTP middleware
  • Reqwest - Fast and reliable HTTP client
  • Tracing - Zero-overhead logging and diagnostics

📈 Performance

MagicAPI Developer AI Gateway is designed for maximum performance:

  • Zero-cost abstractions using Rust's ownership model
  • Asynchronous I/O with Tokio for optimal resource utilization
  • Connection pooling via Reqwest for efficient HTTP connections
  • Memory-efficient request/response proxying
  • Minimal overhead in the request path
  • Optimized streaming response handling

🔒 Security Notes

  • Always run behind a reverse proxy in production
  • Configure CORS appropriately for your use case
  • Use environment variables for sensitive configuration
  • Consider adding rate limiting for production use

We welcome contributions! Please see our CONTRIBUTING.md for guidelines.

🛠️ Development Setup

# Install development dependencies
cargo install cargo-watch

# Run tests
cargo test

# Run with hot reload
cargo watch -x run

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

  1. Connection Refused

    • Check if port 3000 is available
    • Verify the HOST and PORT settings
  2. Streaming Not Working

    • Ensure Accept: text/event-stream header is set
    • Check client supports streaming
    • Verify provider supports streaming for the requested endpoint
  3. Provider Errors

    • Verify provider API keys are correct
    • Check provider-specific headers are properly set
    • Ensure the provider endpoint exists and is correctly formatted
