This Python script allows users to interact with OpenAI's DALL-E 3 API to generate images based on text prompts. It prompts the user to enter some text, submits this text to the DALL-E 3 model, and if successful, returns the URL of the requested image.
NOTE: OpenAI API documentation may change in the future. For the most current information, visit the official OpenAI site for developers.
The images generated by the DALL-E 3 API are typically available for a short period of time, approximately 1 hour, before they are no longer accessible via the URL.
The script requires an API key from OpenAI for authentication. Before running the script, set up an environment variable OPENAI_API_KEY
with your OpenAI API key. Retrieve your API key from your API Keys page on OpenAI.
For assistance on setting up environment variables:
- On Windows, follow Microsoft's guide on Environment Variables.
- On Linux/Unix, refer to the guide on setting environment variables in Linux.
- Interactive prompt for user input.
- Integration with OpenAI's DALL-E 3 API.
- Returns the URL of the generated image based on the user's text input.
