OpenAI JavaScript quickstart

Install the standard OpenAI JavaScript package in server-side code:

bash

npm install openai

Set OPENPOND_API_KEY in your server environment, then list the public catalog and make one request:

import OpenAI from "openai";

const apiKey = process.env.OPENPOND_API_KEY?.trim();
if (!apiKey) throw new Error("OPENPOND_API_KEY is required");

const openai = new OpenAI({
  apiKey,
  baseURL: "https://api.openpond.ai/opchat/v1",
});

const models = await openai.models.list();
const model = models.data[0]?.id;
if (!model) throw new Error("No hosted OpenPond models are available");

const completion = await openai.chat.completions.create({
  model,
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Write one sentence about clean APIs." }],
});

console.log(completion.choices[0]?.message.content);

Do not run this code in a browser. The API key must remain in server-side infrastructure.

Next: Model catalog.
