API REQUEST PARALLEL PROCESSOR
|
|
|
|
Using the OpenAI API to process lots of text quickly takes some care.
|
|
If you trickle in a million API requests one by one, they'll take days to complete.
|
|
If you flood a million API requests in parallel, they'll exceed the rate limits and fail with errors.
|
|
To maximize throughput, parallel requests need to be throttled to stay under rate limits.
|
|
|
|
This script parallelizes requests to the OpenAI API while throttling to stay under rate limits.
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
- Streams requests from file, to avoid running out of memory for giant jobs
|
|
- Makes requests concurrently, to maximize throughput
|
|
- Throttles request and token usage, to stay under rate limits
|
|
- Retries failed requests up to {max_attempts} times, to avoid missing data
|
|
- Logs errors, to diagnose problems with requests
|
|
|
|
Example command to call script:
|
|
```
|
|
python examples/api_request_parallel_processor.py \
|
|
--requests_filepath examples/data/example_requests_to_parallel_process.jsonl \
|
|
--save_filepath examples/data/example_requests_to_parallel_process_results.jsonl \
|
|
--request_url https://api.openai.com/v1/embeddings \
|
|
--max_requests_per_minute 1500 \
|
|
--max_tokens_per_minute 6250000 \
|
|
--token_encoding_name cl100k_base \
|
|
--max_attempts 5 \
|
|
--logging_level 20
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Inputs:
|
|
- requests_filepath : str
|
|
- path to the file containing the requests to be processed
|
|
- file should be a jsonl file, where each line is a json object with API parameters
|
|
- e.g., {"model": "text-embedding-ada-002", "input": "embed me"}
|
|
- as with all jsonl files, take care that newlines in the content are properly escaped (json.dumps does this automatically)
|
|
- an example file is provided at examples/data/example_requests_to_parallel_process.jsonl
|
|
- the code to generate the example file is appended to the bottom of this script
|
|
- save_filepath : str, optional
|
|
- path to the file where the results will be saved
|
|
- file will be a jsonl file, where each line is an array with the original request plus the API response
|
|
- e.g., [{"model": "text-embedding-ada-002", "input": "embed me"}, {...}]
|
|
- if omitted, results will be saved to {requests_filename}_results.jsonl
|
|
- request_url : str, optional
|
|
- URL of the API endpoint to call
|
|
- if omitted, will default to "https://api.openai.com/v1/embeddings"
|
|
- api_key : str, optional
|
|
- API key to use
|
|
- if omitted, the script will attempt to read it from an environment variable {os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY")}
|
|
- max_requests_per_minute : float, optional
|
|
- target number of requests to make per minute (will make less if limited by tokens)
|
|
- leave headroom by setting this to 50% or 75% of your limit
|
|
- if requests are limiting you, try batching multiple embeddings or completions into one request
|
|
- if omitted, will default to 1,500
|
|
- max_tokens_per_minute : float, optional
|
|
- target number of tokens to use per minute (will use less if limited by requests)
|
|
- leave headroom by setting this to 50% or 75% of your limit
|
|
- if omitted, will default to 125,000
|
|
- token_encoding_name : str, optional
|
|
- name of the token encoding used, as defined in the `tiktoken` package
|
|
- if omitted, will default to "cl100k_base" (used by `text-embedding-ada-002`)
|
|
- max_attempts : int, optional
|
|
- number of times to retry a failed request before giving up
|
|
- if omitted, will default to 5
|
|
- logging_level : int, optional
|
|
- level of logging to use; higher numbers will log fewer messages
|
|
- 40 = ERROR; will log only when requests fail after all retries
|
|
- 30 = WARNING; will log when requests his rate limits or other errors
|
|
- 20 = INFO; will log when requests start and the status at finish
|
|
- 10 = DEBUG; will log various things as the loop runs to see when they occur
|
|
- if omitted, will default to 20 (INFO).
|
|
|
|
The script is structured as follows:
|
|
- Imports
|
|
- Define main()
|
|
- Initialize things
|
|
- In main loop:
|
|
- Get next request if one is not already waiting for capacity
|
|
- Update available token & request capacity
|
|
- If enough capacity available, call API
|
|
- The loop pauses if a rate limit error is hit
|
|
- The loop breaks when no tasks remain
|
|
- Define dataclasses
|
|
- StatusTracker (stores script metadata counters; only one instance is created)
|
|
- APIRequest (stores API inputs, outputs, metadata; one method to call API)
|
|
- Define functions
|
|
- api_endpoint_from_url (extracts API endpoint from request URL)
|
|
- append_to_jsonl (writes to results file)
|
|
- num_tokens_consumed_from_request (bigger function to infer token usage from request)
|
|
- task_id_generator_function (yields 1, 2, 3, ...)
|
|
- Run main()

As with all jsonl files, take care that newlines in the content are properly escaped (json.dumps does this automatically).
