Recast.AI official SDK in PHP
This module is a PHP interface to the Recast.AI API. It allows you to make request to your bots
composer require recastai/sdk-php<?php
use client\Client;
require 'client.php';
$client = new Client(YOUR_TOKEN, YOUR_LANGUAGE);
$res = $client->textRequest(YOUR_TEXT);
YOUR_INTENT = $res->intent();
// Do your code...
?>This module contains 4 classes, as follows:
- Client is the client allowing you to make requests.
- Response contains the response from Recast.AI.
- Entity represents an entity found by Recast.AI in your user's input.
- RecastError is the error returned by the module.
Don't hesitate to dive into the code, it's commented ;)
The Client can be instanciated with a token and a language (both optional).
$client = new Client(YOUR_TOKEN, YOUR_LANGUAGE);Your tokens:
Copy paste your request access token from your bot's settings.
Your language
$client = new Client(YOUR_TOKEN, 'en');The language is a lowercase 639-1 isocode.
textRequest(text, options = { token: YOUR_TOKEN, language: YOUR_LANGUAGE, proxy: YOUR_URL_PROXY })
If your pass a token or a language in the options parameter, it will override your default client language or token. You can pass a proxy url in the options if needed.
$res = $client->textRequest(YOUR_TEXT);
// Do your code...¯
})// With optional parameters
$options = array('language' => 'YOUR_LANGUAGE', 'token' => 'YOUR_TOKEN');
$res = $client->textRequest(YOUR_TEXT, $options);
// Do your code...If a language is provided: the language you've given is used for processing if your bot has expressions for it, else your bot's primary language is used.
If no language is provided: the language of the text is detected and is used for processing if your bot has expressions for it, else your bot's primary language is used for processing.
fileRequest(file, callback, options = { token: YOUR_TOKEN, language: YOUR_LANGUAGE, proxy: YOUR_PROXY_URL })
If your pass a token or a language in the options parameter, it will override your default client language or token. You can pass a proxy url in the options if needed.
file format: .wav
$res = $client->fileRequest('myFile.wav');
// Do your code...
})$options = array('language' => 'en', 'token' => YOUR_TOKEN);
$res = $client->fileRequest('myFile.wav', $options);
// Do your code...If a language is provided: Your bot's primary language is used for processing as we do not provide language detection for speech.
If no language is provided: The language you've given is used for processing if your bot has expressions for it, else your bot's primary language is used
The Response is generated after a call to either fileRequest or textRequest.
| Method | Params | Return |

$lol = $res->intent();
if ($result->slug == 'weather') {
// Do your code...
}| Method | Params | Return |
|---|---|---|
| get(name) | name: String | the first Entity matched |
$res = $client->textRequest($text);
$result = $res->get('location');| Method | Params | Return |
|---|---|---|
| all(name) | name: String | all the Entities matched |
$res = $client->textRequest($text);
$lol = $res->all('location');Each of the following methods corresponds to a Response attribute
| Method | Params | Return |

In addition to those methods, more attributes are generated depending of the nature of the entity. The full list can be found there: man.recast.ai
$res = $client->textRequest($text);
$result = $res->get('location');
var_dump($result->slug);
var_dump($result->raw);The Recast.AI Error is thrown when receiving an non-200 response from Recast.AI.
As it inherits from Error, it implements the default Error methods.
