This proxy server translates requests from OpenAI-compatible endpoints to the OpenWebUI API, allowing seamless integration with applications designed for OpenAI APIs.

• Seamless Integration: Works with applications expecting OpenAI API responses.
• Preserves Authorization: Passes through the Authorization header for secure requests.
• Timeout Handling: Increased timeout settings to handle longer processing times.
• Logging and Debugging: Detailed logging for issue resolution.

1. Clone the Repository

   git clone https://github.com/your-username/openwebui-proxy-server.git
   cd openwebui-proxy-server

2. Install Dependencies

   Ensure you have Python 3 and pip installed, then run:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

1. Set OpenWebUI Base URL

   Update the OPENWEBUI_BASE_URL in the proxy_server.py file to point to your OpenWebUI server.

   OPENWEBUI_BASE_URL = "http://your-openwebui-url:3000"

2. Run the Proxy Server

   You can run the proxy server using Flask or Gunicorn for better performance.

   Using Flask:

   python proxy_server.py

   Using Gunicorn (Recommended for Production):

   gunicorn -w 1 -k gevent --timeout 300 proxy_server:app --bind 0.0.0.0:5001

curl -X GET http://localhost:5001/v1/models \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json"

curl -X POST http://localhost:5001/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
    "model": "ytm-website",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Why is the sky blue?"}]
}'

Detailed logging is included to help diagnose and resolve issues. Logs are output to the console by default.

# Example log entry
DEBUG:Request to OpenWebUI models: {'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY', 'Content-Type': 'application/json'}
DEBUG:Response from OpenWebUI models: 200 - {"models": ["model1", "model2"]}
