How to add base url for Gemini real time api ?

Thanks for reaching out, Rahul. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.

I’m trying to use the Gemini Realtime model for a speech-in / speech-out use case, not just for standard LLM text responses, by following the documentation below: https://docs.livekit.io/agents/models/realtime/plugins/gemini/ However, the

google.realtime.RealtimeModel

does not provide support for configuring a custom base URL. The current implementation prevents routing the realtime connection through a custom endpoint or gateway.

from livekit.plugins import google

session = AgentSession(
    llm=google.realtime.RealtimeModel(
        voice="Puck",
        temperature=0.8,
        instructions="You are a helpful assistant",
    ),
)

Thanks — I see you're trying to use Gemini Realtime for speech-in / speech-out and need to route the realtime connection through a custom endpoint, but

google.realtime.RealtimeModel

does not expose a

base_url

option. You're correct: the realtime model currently lacks that parameter, so you can't configure a custom gateway via the public API. Options you can take now: • Fork or patch the

livekit-plugins-google

source to add

base_url

into the RealtimeModel WebSocket connection logic. • Use a network-level solution (reverse proxy, Envoy, iptables, or a Kubernetes service mesh) to intercept and reroute connections to the Gemini realtime domain. • Override DNS so the default Gemini domain points to your gateway. If you want, tell me: • which SDK/language and package version you're using, and • whether you can modify plugin source or only infrastructure, and I’ll give a concrete patch suggestion or a proxy/DNS configuration example.
