# LiteLLM Rust
|
|
|
|
This workspace contains the staged Rust implementation for LiteLLM.
|
|
|
|
`litellm-core` is the LiteLLM SDK in Rust: one entrypoint per top-level call
|
|
that makes the LLM call and hands back a typed response, the same shape as
|
|
`litellm.messages()` in Python.
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
let response = litellm_core::messages::messages(MessagesRequest {
|
|
model: "claude-sonnet-4-5",
|
|
body,
|
|
api_key: Some(key),
|
|
..
|
|
})
|
|
.await?;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Python continues to own configuration, retries, routing policy, logging,
|
|
callbacks, spend tracking, and customer plugins until each Rust path has parity
|
|
coverage and production evidence.
|
|
|
|
## Crates
|
|
|
|
| Crate | Role |
|
|
|-------|------|
|
|
| litellm-core | The SDK. Per-route entrypoints (`messages::messages()`), types, provider transforms (modules under `providers/`), provider resolution, auth, the provider HTTP call, and the router. |
|
|
| litellm-ai-gateway | The axum server (behind the `server` feature) and WebSocket hosts. Translates HTTP/WS to core entrypoints; no provider handlers. |
|
|
| litellm-python-bridge | PyO3 cdylib exposing Rust to the litellm Python SDK — marshals Python objects and calls core entrypoints. |
|
|
|
|
Dependency direction (acyclic): litellm-core ← litellm-ai-gateway ← litellm-python-bridge.
|
|
|
|
## Layout
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
crates/
|
|
core/ The SDK: route modules + provider transforms.
|
|
src/messages/ mod.rs (entrypoint), types, transformation, prepare, handler, client
|
|
src/providers/anthropic/messages/transformation.rs
|
|
ai-gateway/ Axum server + WebSocket hosts; calls core entrypoints.
|
|
python-bridge/ PyO3 bridge for Python LiteLLM.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The folder shape follows the Python provider tree:
|
|
`core/src/providers/<provider>/<route>/transformation.rs`. The bridge exposes one
|
|
function per top-level route, mirroring the core entrypoints.
|
|
|
|
## Checks
|
|
|
|
Run these before pushing Rust changes. GitHub Actions runs the same checks for
|
|
changes under `litellm-rust/`.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cargo fmt --check
|
|
cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings
|
|
cargo test --workspace
|
|
```
