What happened?

This is not exactly a bug, it's more of an improvement suggestion that I have already implemented for a need I had. However, I may have misunderstood the code and what I did may have been completely unnecessary. Here it goes:

I need the project to work exclusively via Azure endpoint. To do so, I filled in the session variables in the .env file. However, I noticed that the models used in the combo box of the interface follow the OpenAI session variable, even if they are not being filled in:

##########################
# OpenAI Endpoint: 
##########################

# Access key from OpenAI platform. 
# Leave it blank to disable this feature.
# Set to "user_provided" to allow the user to provide their API key from the UI.
OPENAI_KEY=

# Identify the available models, separated by commas *without spaces*. 
# The first will be default. 
# Leave it blank to use internal settings. 
OPENAI_MODELS=gpt-3.5-turbo-0301,gpt-4

Therefore, I ended up creating a logic with the AZURE_OPENAI_API_DEPLOYMENT_NAME variable so that, in the same way as with the OPENAI_MODELS variable, they are separated by commas and correspond in position to the OpenAI models. Example:

##########################
# AZURE Endpoint:   
##########################

# To use Azure with this project, set the following variables. These will be used to build the API URL.
# Chat completion: 
#     `https://{AZURE_OPENAI_API_INSTANCE_NAME}.openai.azure.com/openai/deployments/{AZURE_OPENAI_API_DEPLOYMENT_NAME}/chat/completions?api-version={AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION}`;
# You should also consider changing the `OPENAI_MODELS` variable above to the models available in your instance/deployment.
# Note: I've noticed that the Azure API is much faster than the OpenAI API, so the streaming looks almost instantaneous.

AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY=xxxxxxxxx
AZURE_OPENAI_API_INSTANCE_NAME=gpt_xxx
AZURE_OPENAI_API_DEPLOYMENT_NAME=xxx-gpt-3_5-turbo-0301;xxx-gpt-4
AZURE_OPENAI_API_VERSION=2023-05-15

There is still a technical debt in that the names of the deployments in Azure must contain a reference to the name of the original OpenAI model for matching purposes.

But... as I mentioned, I may not have understood how to use the application correctly, and I may have done all this for nothing. What do you think?

Thank you!

I'm not sure I completely follow. Does the deployment name determine which models are used?

[alancamillo]

Let me provide an example. Given the model names of the endpoints:

# OpenAI Endpoint:
OPENAI_MODELS=gpt-3.5-turbo-0301,gpt-4
# AZURE Endpoint: 
AZURE_OPENAI_API_DEPLOYMENT_NAME=xxx-gpt-3_5-turbo-0301;xxx-gpt-4

The OpenAI model "gpt-3.5-turbo-0301" will match the Azure model "xxx-gpt-3_5-turbo-0301" because it contains the name of the OpenAI model within the Azure deployment name.

[danny-avila]

From what I understand, deployment names will vary from organization. It might be convention to name after the model being used. It would help if you submit a PR to see what your logic is doing exactly, I've been given azure access for testing things like this but I only have one deployment name/model

Another possibility is to have another list of models in the Azure session that could be used, both for the chat menu and for invoking the Azure endpoint. I will explore these two possibilities and submit a pull request to the project.
