Python

Learn how to run your first AI inference job using the Livepeer AI Python SDK.

1. Prerequisites

   To get the most out of this guide, you’ll need to:

   • Choose an AI Gateway
   • Optional: Get an API key (required for some gateways).
2. Install the SDK

   Get the Livepeer AI Python SDK.

   pip install livepeer-ai
   
3. Initialize the SDK

   The first step is to initialize the SDK (with your API key if required).

   from livepeer_ai import Livepeer
   
   s = Livepeer(
       http_bearer="<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
   )
   
4. Use the SDK

   Now that you have the SDK installed and initialized, you can use it to request one of the available AI services.

   from livepeer_ai import Livepeer
   
   s = Livepeer(
       http_bearer="<YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN_HERE>",
   )
   
   res = s.generate.text_to_image(request={
       "prompt": "<value>",
   })
   
   if res.image_response is not None:
       # handle response
       pass
   
5. Try it yourself
