[Bug]: Call to undefined method OpenAI\Client::client()

[MoisesRoig]

Description

Hello, I'm running this code:
`use OpenAI\Laravel\Facades\OpenAI;
$yourApiKey = getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY');
$org = getenv('OPENAI_ORGANIZATION');

    $client = OpenAI::client($yourApiKey, $org);

    $result = $client->chat()->create([
        'model' => 'gpt-4',
        'messages' => [
            ['role' => 'user', 'content' => 'Hello!'],
        ],
    ]);

    echo $result->choices[0]->message->content;

`

ENV is OK, the API works Okay when I use chat() function, but I need to create an assistant.

The error is that the client() method is not found (Call to undefined method OpenAI\Client::client()), but in vscode I can click on it and see the code, so it exists, obviously I installed both Client and Laravel packages and ran composer install and update after.

Steps To Reproduce

Install composer packages, setup env variables and run this code:
`
use OpenAI\Laravel\Facades\OpenAI;

  $yourApiKey = getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY');
    $org = getenv('OPENAI_ORGANIZATION');

    $client = OpenAI::client($yourApiKey, $org);

    $result = $client->chat()->create([
        'model' => 'gpt-4',
        'messages' => [
            ['role' => 'user', 'content' => 'Hello!'],
        ],
    ]);

    echo $result->choices[0]->message->content;`

Check if you are using 0.10.x-dev or 0.10.3, I had a similar issue with 0.10.x-dev, not with 0.10.3

The base class does not have a namespace and you are importing the Laravel Facade, which is already setup by then. This code sample worked when you used the right import.

       use OpenAI;

        $yourApiKey = getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY');
        $org = getenv('OPENAI_ORGANIZATION');

        $client = OpenAI::client($yourApiKey, $org);

        $result = $client->chat()->create([
            'model' => 'gpt-4',
            'messages' => [
                ['role' => 'user', 'content' => 'Hello!'],
            ],
        ]);

        echo $result->choices[0]->message->content;
        // Hello! How can I assist you today?

You opened the issue in the client repo though, so unsure if you are using Laravel intentionally or not. Either way - this is not a bug and misconfiguration on your end.

So I'm closing.
