OpenAI API: How do I handle errors in Python?

题意：在使用OpenAI API进行Python开发时，怎样处理错误？

问题背景：

I tried using the below code, but the OpenAI API doesn't have the AuthenticationError method in the library. How can I effectively handle such error.

我尝试使用下面的代码，但是OpenAI API的库中并没有AuthenticationError这个方法。我该如何有效地处理这种错误

import openai

# Set up your OpenAI credentials
openai.api_key = 'YOUR_API_KEY'

try:
    # Perform OpenAI API request
    response = openai.some_function()  # Replace with the appropriate OpenAI API function

    # Process the response
    # ...
except openai.AuthenticationError:
    # Handle the AuthenticationError
    print("Authentication error: Invalid API key or insufficient permissions.")
    # Perform any necessary actions, such as displaying an error message or exiting the program

问题解决：

Error handling with the OpenAI Python SDK v1.0.0 or newer

在使用OpenAI Python SDK v1.0.0或更新版本时处理错误

• If you don't want to handle error types individually:

如果您不想单独处理每种错误类型：

import os
from openai import OpenAI, OpenAIError
client = OpenAI()
OpenAI.api_key = os.getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY')

try:
  # Make your OpenAI API request here
  response = client.completions.create(
    model="gpt-3.5-turbo-instruct",
    prompt="Say this is a test"
  )
  print(response)
except OpenAIError as e:
  # Handle all OpenAI API errors
  print(f"Error: {e}")

• If you want to handle error types individually:

如果您想单独处理每种错误类型：

Note: Because there are a lot of classes for error handling, it might not be so elegant to import them individually. Instead, use import openai and all classes for error handling will be imported automatically. But the code is a bit different now.

注意：由于存在许多用于错误处理的类，因此单独导入它们可能不太优雅。相反，使用import openai会自动导入所有用于错误处理的类。但是，现在的代码会有所不同。

import os
import openai # Import openai
from openai import OpenAI # But don't import OpenAIError
client = OpenAI()
OpenAI.api_key = os.getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY')

try:
  # Make your OpenAI API request here
  response = client.completions.create(
    model="gpt-3.5-turbo-instruct",
    prompt="Say this is a test"
  )
  print(response)
except openai.BadRequestError as e: # Don't forget to add openai
  # Handle error 400
  print(f"Error 400: {e}")
except openai.AuthenticationError as e: # Don't forget to add openai
  # Handle error 401
  print(f"Error 401: {e}")
except openai.PermissionDeniedError as e: # Don't forget to add openai
  # Handle error 403
  print(f"Error 403: {e}")
except openai.NotFoundError as e: # Don't forget to add openai
  # Handle error 404
  print(f"Error 404: {e}")
except openai.UnprocessableEntityError as e: # Don't forget to add openai
  # Handle error 422
  print(f"Error 422: {e}")
except openai.RateLimitError as e: # Don't forget to add openai
  # Handle error 429
  print(f"Error 429: {e}")
except openai.InternalServerError as e: # Don't forget to add openai
  # Handle error >=500
  print(f"Error >=500: {e}")
except openai.APIConnectionError as e: # Don't forget to add openai
  # Handle API connection error
  print(f"API connection error: {e}")

Your code isn't correct.        你的代码不准确

Change this...       将下面的语句

except openai.AuthenticationError

...to this.               修改成

except openai.error.AuthenticationError
