Usage

Using model name

require "tiktoken"

text = "吾輩は猫である。名前はたぬき。"

encoding = Tiktoken.encoding_for_model("gpt-4")
tokens = encoding.encode_with_special_tokens(text)
# [7305, 122, 164, 120, 102, 15682, 163, 234, 104, 16556, 30591, 30369, 1811, 13372, 25580, 15682, 28713, 2243, 105, 50834, 1811]

encoding.decode(tokens)
# "吾輩は猫である。名前はたぬき。"

Using encoding directly

You can also create encodings directly:

require "tiktoken"

# Available encodings:
encoding = Tiktoken::Encoding.r50k_base       # GPT-3 models
encoding = Tiktoken::Encoding.p50k_base       # Code models
encoding = Tiktoken::Encoding.p50k_edit       # Edit models
encoding = Tiktoken::Encoding.cl100k_base     # ChatGPT models
encoding = Tiktoken::Encoding.o200k_base      # GPT-4o, o1, o3 models
encoding = Tiktoken::Encoding.o200k_harmony   # gpt-oss models

text = "Hello, world!"
tokens = encoding.encode(text)
decoded = encoding.decode(tokens)

Count the number of ChatGPT tokens

model = "gpt-4"
messages = [
  {
    "role"    => "system",
    "content" => "You are a helpful assistant that only speaks French.",
  },
  {
    "role"    => "user",
    "content" => "Hello, how are you?",
  },
  {
    "role"    => "assistant",
    "content" => "Parlez-vous francais?",
  },
]

Tiktoken.num_tokens_from_messages(model, messages)
# 36

Tiktoken.chat_completion_max_tokens(model, messages)
# 8156
