You can now navigate to http://localhost:3000⁠ or the PORT provided, see the Usage section below.

⁠Docker

docker push gcr.io/magicbuddy-chat/whisper-docker

gcloud run deploy whisper-docker \
  --image gcr.io/magicbuddy-chat/whisper-docker  \

# or

docker run -p 3000:3000 -e OPENAI_KEY=YOUR_KEY_HERE gcr.io/magicbuddy-chat/whisper-docker

# or set it as env in Cloud Run with the below command or in the Cloud Console UI

gcloud run deploy whisper-docker \
