Need help getting started? See our guide: how to build an app using the OpenAI API.
- PHP version 7.2.5 or newer (including PHP 8.0 and 8.1)
- PHP JSON extension installed if using PHP 7.x. As of PHP 8.0, this extension became a core PHP extension so is always enabled.
- A PSR-18 compatible HTTP client such as 'Guzzle' or the 'Symfony HTTP Client'.
Install the package into your project:
composer require tectalic/openai
After installing the Tectalic OpenAI REST API Client package into your project, ensure you also have a compatible PSR-18 HTTP client such as 'Guzzle' or the Symfony 'HTTP Client'.
You can use the following code sample and customize it to suit your application.
// Load your project's composer autoloader (if you aren't already doing so).
require_once(__DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php');
use Symfony\Component\HttpClient\Psr18Client;
use Tectalic\OpenAi\Authentication;
use Tectalic\OpenAi\Client;
use Tectalic\OpenAi\Manager;
// Build a Tectalic OpenAI REST API Client globally.
$auth = new Authentication(getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY'));
$httpClient = new Psr18Client();
Manager::build($httpClient, $auth);
// or
// Build a Tectalic OpenAI REST API Client manually.
$auth = new Authentication(getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY'));
$httpClient = new Psr18Client();
$client = new Client($httpClient, $auth, Manager::BASE_URI);
To authenticate your API requests, you will need to provide an Authentication
($auth
) object when calling Manager::build()
.
Authentication to the OpenAI API is by HTTP Bearer authentication.
Please see the OpenAI API documentation for more details on obtaining your authentication credentials.
In the Usage code above, customize the Authentication
constructor to your needs. For example, will likely need to add a OPENAI_API_KEY
environment variable to your system.
The primary class you will interact with is the Client
class (Tectalic\OpenAi\Client
).
This Client
class also contains the helper methods that let you quickly access the 16 API Handlers.
Please see below for a complete list of supported handlers and methods.
This package supports 23 API Methods, which are grouped into 16 API Handlers.

There are two ways to make a request to the nominated API Handler and API Method:
If you built the client to be accessible globally, you can use the relevant API Handler Class directly:
use Tectalic\OpenAi\Handlers\AudioTranscriptions;
(new AudioTranscriptions())->create();
Alternatively, you can access all API Handlers from the client class using the Client class:
$client->audioTranscriptions()->create();
Once you have made a request using one of the two methods outlined above, the next step is to access the response.
You can access the response in different ways. Please choose your preferred one.
Model responses are Data Transfer Object (DTO) style PHP classes, with public properties for each API property.
They offer a structured way of retrieving the response from an API request.
All Response Models are an instance of Tectalic\OpenAi\Models\AbstractModel
or Tectalic\OpenAi\Models\AbstractModelCollection
.
After performing the request, use the ->toModel()
fluent method to the API Method:
use Tectalic\OpenAi\Handlers\AudioTranscriptions;
$model = (new AudioTranscriptions())->create()->toModel();
Each API Method's toModel()
call will return the appropriate Model class type for the API Method you have just called.
After performing the request, use the ->toArray()
fluent method to the API Method:
use Tectalic\OpenAi\Handlers\AudioTranscriptions;
$array = (new AudioTranscriptions())->create()->toArray();
In the resulting associative array, the array keys will match the names of the public properties in the relevant Model class.
If you need to access the raw response or inspect the HTTP headers, use the ->getResponse()
fluent method to the API Method. It will return a Psr\Http\Message\ResponseInterface
:
use Tectalic\OpenAi\Handlers\AudioTranscriptions;
$response = (new AudioTranscriptions())->create()->getResponse();
When performing requests with Tectalic OpenAI REST API Client, specific scenarios will cause a Tectalic\OpenAi\Exception\ClientException
to be thrown. Please see below for details.
A \LogicException
will be thrown if the Manager::build()
function is called multiple times, or if Manager::access()
is called before calling Manager::build()
.
The Tectalic OpenAI REST API Client depends on a PSR-18 compatible HTTP client, and that HTTP client should not throw an exception for unsuccessful HTTP response codes.
An unsuccessful response code is classified as one that is not in the range 200
-299
(inclusive). Examples of unsuccessful response codes include:
- Informational responses (
100
-199
) - Redirection responses (
300
-399
) - Client error responses (
400
-499
) - Server error responses (
500
-599
)
If an unsuccessful response code does occur:
- your HTTP Client will not throw an Exception.
- the API Handler's
toModel()
method will throw aClientException
. - the API Handler's
toArray()
method will return the response body and not throw aClientException
. - The API Handler's
getResponse()
method will return the raw response and not throw aClientException
.
Below is an example of how you may wish to use a try
/catch
block when performing a request so that you can detect and handle unexpected errors.
use Tectalic\OpenAi\Authentication;
use Tectalic\OpenAi\Client;
use Tectalic\OpenAi\ClientException;
use Tectalic\OpenAi\Manager;
// Build a Tectalic OpenAI REST API Client globally.
$auth = new Authentication('token');
Manager::build($httpClient, $auth);
$handler = new AudioTranscriptions();
// Perform a request
try {
$model = $handler->create()->toModel();
// Do something with the response model...
} catch (ClientException $e) {
// Error response received. Retrieve the HTTP response code and response body.
$responseBody = $handler->toArray();
$responseCode = $handler->getResponse()->getStatusCode();
// Handle the error...
}
If your HTTP client of choice throws an exception other than ClientException
, the Tectalic OpenAI REST API Client Client
and its API Handler classes will let these exceptions bubble up.
Consult your HTTP client's documentation for more details on exception handling.
The Tectalic OpenAI REST API Client package includes several types of automated PHPUnit tests to verify the correct operation:
- Unit Tests
- Integration Tests
To run these tests, you will need to have installed the Tectalic OpenAI REST API Client package with its dev dependencies (i.e. not using the --no-dev
flag when running composer).
These PHPUnit tests are designed to:
- confirm that each API Method assembles a valid request that matches the OpenAI API OpenAPI specification.
- verify the behaviour of other parts of the package, such as the
Client
andManager
classes.
The unit tests can be run using the following command, which needs to be run from this package's root directory.
composer test:unit
Unit tests do not perform any real requests against the OpenAI API.
Unit tests are located in the tests/Unit
directory.
Integration tests are located in the tests/Integration
directory.
These PHPUnit tests are designed to confirm that each API Method parses a valid response, according to the OpenAI API OpenAPI specification. Out of the box the integration tests are designed to work with the Prism Mock Server.
Make sure Prism is installed. Please see the Prism documentation for details on how to install Prism.
Once Prism is installed, you can run prism and the integration tests side by side in separate terminal windows, or using the following command, which need to be run from this package's root directory.
echo "> Starting Prism server"
prism mock tests/openapi.yaml >/dev/null 2>&1 &
PRISM_PID=$!
sleep 2
echo " => Started"
composer test:integration
kill $PRISM_PID
Those commands will start the Prism mock server, then run the integration tests, and then stop the Prism mock server when the tests are completed.
In this case the integration tests do not perform any real requests against the OpenAI API.
By setting the OPENAI_CLIENT_TEST_BASE_URI
environment variable, you can set a different API endpoint target for the integration tests.
For example, instead of using Prism, you can use a different mocking/staging/test server of your choice, or you can use the OpenAI API's live endpoints.
Do not forget to set the appropriate credentials in the OPENAI_CLIENT_TEST_AUTH_USERNAME
OPENAI_CLIENT_TEST_AUTH_PASSWORD
environment variables.
After your setup is complete simply run the following command.
composer test:integration
We do not recommend running integration tests against the live OpenAI API endpoints. This is because the tests will send example data to all endpoints, which can result in new data being created, or existing data being deleted.
If you are writing your own tests, you will likely need to mock the responses from the OpenAI API.
One way of doing this is to install the php-http/mock-client
package into your project, and then use the \Http\Mock\Client
class (instead of a real PSR-18 client) when instantiating the Tectalic OpenAI REST API Client.
This allows you to mock the responses from the OpenAI API, rather than performing real requests.
Please see the Mock Client documentation for details.
