Due to the official ban of GFW and OpenAI, our domestic server cannot access the official interface of OpenAI
Before, I always used a third-party proxy domain name found on the Internet, but I was worried that using other people's proxy would be unsafe and unstable
Now, we can use cloudflare to build an OpenAI proxy service ourselves, using our own forwarding proxy
Step 1: Register cloudflare account
Go to the official website to register an account Cloudflare China Official Website | Intelligent Cloud Service Platform | Free CDN Security Protection | Cloudflare (cloudflare-cn.com)
Step 2: Create a worker for request transfer
You can choose a name at will, click Quick Edit to enter the code editing interface
The js code is
export default {
async fetch(request) {
const url = new URL(request.url);
url.host = 'api.openai.com';
return fetch(url, { headers: request.headers, method: request.method, body: request.body });
},
};
So far, the proxy transfer service has been set up, but we still cannot use it in China, we need to configure an accessible domain name for domain name forwarding
Step 3: Domain Forwarding
In the left menu bar ==>Website===>Add site, add our own domain name, here needs to be the root domain name
After configuration, click on the domain name, you will be prompted to modify the DNS server of the domain name
We need to find dns management in our own domain name control panel, and modify the dns server address
For example, my domain name is on Alibaba Cloud, we can change it to the DNS address required by cloudflare in the following
Wait for cloudflare to verify that the DNS configuration is successful, and a notification email will be sent to your mailbox
Go back to the Worker configuration, add a domain name forwarding, I added a custom domain name of my own
After the above operations are completed, you can configure and use your own proxy domain name when using the official OpenAI interface
