OpenAI SDK DeepSeek / Qwen / GLM without rewriting your app

I wanted to try Chinese LLMs (DeepSeek, Qwen, GLM) without maintaining multiple SDKs.

Approach

Use an OpenAI-compatible gateway. Keep your existing client; change base URL + API key.

Quick start

1. Sign up at https://apihub4u.com (trial credits on signup)
2. Create an API key
3. Point your SDK to: https://apihub4u.com/v1
4. Set model to e.g. deepseek-chat or qwen-turbo

Example (Python)

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
api_key="YOUR_KEY",
base_url="https://apihub4u.com/v1",
)

resp = client.chat.completions.create(
model="deepseek-chat",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}],
)
print(resp.choices[0].message.content)

Notes

• Streaming works (SSE)
• Prices are listed on the dashboard / docs
• Overseas top-ups via PayPal
