Deploy

Getting Started
This section assumes you have set up a Deep Infra account and project using the Vercel Integration (press deploy button above).
Step 1. Pull environment variables
You'll need a Deep Infra API key in your environment variables to connect to the model. Run the following command to pull them from Vercel:
vercel env pull
Step 2. Run the app
Run npm run dev. You can start chatting with the ai model immediately.
Manual Setup
Step 1. Deep Infra account
Create a Deep Infra account either through the Vercel marketplace integration or by directly registering at Deep Infra
Step 2. Clone the sample app
git clone git@github.com:deepinfra/deepinfra-chat.git
cd deepinfra-chat
npm install
Step 3. Set up environment variables
Copy the .env.local.example file in this directory to .env.local (which will be ignored by Git):
cp .env.local.example .env.local
From the api keys page in your Deep Infra dashboard, create a new token or use an existing one. Use that token to set the DEEPINFRA_API_KEY variable in .env.local
Experiment
By default the sample app uses model meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct-Turbo specified in app/page.tsx:
const DI_MODEL = "meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct-Turbo";
The actual inference calls to the model happen in app/api/chat/route.ts:
export async function POST(req: Request) {
const { messages, model } = await req.json();
const result = streamText({
model: deepinfra(model),
system: "Be a helpful assistant.",
messages,
});
return result.toDataStreamResponse();
}You can experiment with different Deep Infra models, prompts and options. See the Deep Infra docs, Vercel AI SDK docs and Deep Infra AI SDK Provider docs.
