How to get ChatGPT API token? #1

Open protron opened 2 months ago

protron commented 2 months ago

I found no documentation in F-Droid nor in this repo saying that ChatGPT API token is needed to run the app, neither any explanation of how to get it. Is there a free way to get the token?

Hi,

The project is marked in F-Droid with "Non-free Network Services" anti-feature indicating it relies on ChatGPT but you're right, there's no explanation on how to get the token. I will add one in the next release.

To get one you need to go here: https://platform.openai.com/organization/api-keys (obviously openai account is required) and use 'create new secret key' action. The API is not free so you have to deposit some money to use it but the app only calls ChatGPT when adding new recipes. My usage is around $1 per year and that includes all the testing done while developing the app.

In future version I will add integrations with other LLM services, including self-hosted ones but for now ChatGPT is required.
