# MiniMax

> Configure MiniMax as an LLM provider in Mem0 with API key setup and optional custom endpoint configuration.

To use MiniMax LLM models, you have to set the `MINIMAX_API_KEY` environment variable. You can also optionally set `MINIMAX_API_BASE` if you need to use a different API endpoint (defaults to "[https://api.minimax.io/v1](https://api.minimax.io/v1)").

## Usage

<CodeGroup>
  ```python Python theme={null}
  import os
  from mem0 import Memory

  os.environ["MINIMAX_API_KEY"] = "your-api-key"
  os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = "your-api-key" # for embedder model

  config = {
      "llm": {
          "provider": "minimax",
          "config": {
              "model": "MiniMax-M2.7",  # default model
              "temperature": 0.2,
              "max_tokens": 2000,
              "top_p": 1.0
          }
      }
  }

  m = Memory.from_config(config)
  messages = [
      {"role": "user", "content": "I'm planning to watch a movie tonight. Any recommendations?"},
      {"role": "assistant", "content": "How about thriller movies? They can be quite engaging."},
      {"role": "user", "content": "I'm not a big fan of thriller movies but I love sci-fi movies."},
      {"role": "assistant", "content": "Got it! I'll avoid thriller recommendations and suggest sci-fi movies in the future."}
  ]
  m.add(messages, user_id="alice", metadata={"category": "movies"})
  ```

  ```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
  import { Memory } from 'mem0ai/oss';

  const config = {
    llm: {
      provider: 'minimax',
      config: {
        apiKey: process.env.MINIMAX_API_KEY || '',
        model: 'MiniMax-M2.7',
        temperature: 0.2,
        maxTokens: 2000,
        topP: 1.0,
      },
    },
  };
  const memory = new Memory(config);
  const messages = [
    { role: "user", content: "I'm planning to watch a movie tonight. Any recommendations?" },
    { role: "assistant", content: "How about thriller movies? They can be quite engaging." },
    { role: "user", content: "I'm not a big fan of thriller movies but I love sci-fi movies." },
    { role: "assistant", content: "Got it! I'll avoid thriller recommendations and suggest sci-fi movies in the future." },
  ];
  await memory.add(messages, { userId: 'alice', metadata: { category: 'movies' } });
  ```
</CodeGroup>

You can also configure the API base URL in the config:

<CodeGroup>
  ```python Python theme={null}
  config = {
      "llm": {
          "provider": "minimax",
          "config": {
              "model": "MiniMax-M2.7",
              "minimax_base_url": "https://your-custom-endpoint.com",
              "api_key": "your-api-key"  # alternatively to using environment variable
          }
      }
  }
  ```

  ```typescript TypeScript theme={null}
  const config = {
    llm: {
      provider: 'minimax',
      config: {
        model: 'MiniMax-M2.7',
        baseURL: 'https://your-custom-endpoint.com',
        apiKey: 'your-api-key', // alternatively to using the environment variable
      },
    },
  };
  ```
</CodeGroup>
