Third Party UI

If you want to host it on your own UI or third party UI, you can launch the OpenAI compatible server and host with a tunnelling service such as Tunnelmole or ngrok, and then enter the credentials appropriately.

You can find suitable UIs from third party repos:

• WongSaang's ChatGPT UI

• McKayWrigley's Chatbot UI

• Please note that some third-party providers only offer the standard gpt-3.5-turbo, gpt-4, etc., so you will have to add your own custom model inside the code. Here is an example of how to create a UI with any custom model name.

Using Tunnelmole

Tunnelmole is an open source tunnelling tool. You can find its source code on Github. Here's how you can use Tunnelmole:

1. Install Tunnelmole with curl -O https://install.tunnelmole.com/9Wtxu/install && sudo bash install. (On Windows, download tmole.exe). Head over to the README for other methods such as npm or building from source.
2. Run tmole 7860 (replace 7860 with your listening port if it is different from 7860). The output will display two URLs: one HTTP and one HTTPS. It's best to use the HTTPS URL for better privacy and security.

➜  ~ tmole 7860
http://bvdo5f-ip-49-183-170-144.tunnelmole.net is forwarding to localhost:7860

Using ngrok

ngrok is a popular closed source tunnelling tool. First download and install it from ngrok.com. Here's how to use it to expose port 7860.
