I am trying to use ChatGPT as the chatbot for my Magento 2 website, and I want to pass product data to it. To do this, I collected all the products and stored them in a JSON file, which I then read to embed the data in the `systemRoleContent` of the system role. However, the issue I am facing is that the JSON file is quite large. { "bot_response": "Error: ChatBot Error: Unexpected API response structure: {\n \"error\": {\n \"message\": \"Request too large for gpt-4o on tokens per min (TPM): Limit 30000, Requested 501140. The input or output tokens must be reduced in order to run successfully. Visit https://platform.openai.com/account/rate-limits to learn more.\",\n \"type\": \"tokens\",\n \"param\": null,\n \"code\": \"rate_limit_exceeded\"\n }\n}\n" } I noticed that there is a function that needs to be added to the API configuration, which allows you to run a query to select products based on keywords found in their names or descriptions that match keywords in the user’s message. The challenge is that users initially may not know the names of the products; they come to the chatbot to discover them. How can I address this issue? This is the code that I am working with right now: <?php namespace MetaCares\Chatbot\Model; use Magento\Framework\App\ObjectManager; class ChatBot { private $authorization; private $endpoint; private $conversationHistory = []; private $productsFile; private $fetchingDateFile; private $didFetchProducts = false; public function __construct() { $this->authorization = 'sk-proj-'; $this->endpoint = 'https://api.openai.com/v1/chat/completions'; $this->productsFile = __DIR__ .

Hi everyone. I'm very new into self learning programming. Presently I'm trying to develop a simple basic Robot that would only Place a Market Order every seconds and it will cancel the Order every followed seconds. Using the following library: https://docs.b2bx.exchange/en/_docs/api-reference.html#private-api It would place Trade Order at a ( Price = ex.com api * Binance api Aggregate Trades Price) I have already wrote the api to call for xe.com exchange rate with php <?php $auth = base64_encode("username:password"); $context = stream_context_create([ "http" => [ "header" => "Authorization: Basic $auth" ] ]); $homepage = file_get_contents("https://xecdapi.xe.com/v1/convert_from?to=NGN&amount=1.195", false, $context ); $json = json_decode($homepage, TRUE); foreach ($json as $k=>$to){ echo $k; // etc }; ?> And also for the Binance Aggregate Price in JavaScript <script> var burl = "https://api3.binance.com"; var query = '/api/v3/aggTrades'; query += '?symbol=BTCUSDT'; var url = burl + query; var ourRequest = new XMLHttpRequest(); ourRequest.open('GET',url,true); ourRequest.onload = function(){ console.log(ourRequest.responseText); } ourRequest.send(); </script> My problem is how to handle these two api responds and also the functions to use them to place a trade and cancel it. Please help me out. Thanks in advance on any help.

Hi I have a question about API keys and security. I am building a mobile app (learning) and will be using a PHP/MySQL JSON Rest API (designed myself) and I am new to APIs in general so some best practices would be appreciated if you have any? My real question is to do with securing these APIs. For example I was thinking of using user name and password that the user logs into the application with to be send over HTTPS for each request to validate the user is authorised and authenticated. However I have read that I should also be using API keys, so how would I integrate this in? Would each user have their own unique API key or would each system that uses this API have a unique key? If its each user that has their own key would I send all three pieces of data with the request (API Key, username and password). Any advice would be great. Thanks

Hello everyone.. I have a question to delete comment based from user-id itself. I use PHP SDK to delete any comment to my facebook page and it was success as long as I specify the comment-id.. Below are my codes to delete a comment from comment-id $request = new FacebookRequest( $session, 'DELETE', '/{comment-id}' ); $response = $request->execute(); $graphObject = $response->getGraphObject(); Is it possible to delete comment based on user-id itself? I know that I just need to query the graph api to get the comment-id from A but each comment have different id`s so its hard to query the comment-id everytime.. For example: A, B, and C comment to my facebook post and I want to delete the comment where the user-id is from A? So, if the api scan and found out that A is commenting to my post, it will be deleted instead deleting B and C I really appreciate for any help from you guys.. Thanks

Hi guys, I am having a little trouble getting my head around how to tackle an issue. I am working with an API :- https://www.photoshelter.com/developer/index/endpoints/public Connecting up to it no problem and getting the information via cURL is also no bother. The point is I am needing to loop through galleries to retrieve 400 gallery IDs so I can pass in the data I need so for example I execute my first cURL response which gives me all the gallery IDs from here :- /psapi/v3/collection/root/children Now then I need to run a foreach loop to get each gallery ID to pass to :- /psapi/v3/gallery/{gallery_id} /psapi/v3/gallery/{gallery_id}/key_image Now the problem is I am having to use cURL to get the JSON data from here too and then finally the last one :- /psapi/v3/gallery/{gallery_id}/images/{image_id} To get the gallery featured image. Now the first cURL works fine but when I introduce the others in foreach loops it cripples it on loading time, but looking through of course it would as its excuting cURL a ridiculous amount of times. Is there a better way of tackling an issue like this as I feel cURL and file_get_contents is the wrong way going about this. Normally it's one execution and I get all the data I have never worked with something like this before. I would show my code but I feel it is unnecessary at this point on the grounds of I do not think this is the most productive way of even looking at this Currently the only thing I can think of is creating a query string to execute via a CRON job that would execute twice a day to check through the galleries API at Photoshelter and add everything to a database that I need. Any information would be greatly appreciated Thanks in advance Jamie

I am looking to do something like this. Showing multiple locations of a business on Google Maps. Living Social has it and so does Groupon. https://www.livingsocial.com/ca/cities/83-ottawa/deals/1542906-basic-training-style-boot-camp?append_ref_code=home_whats_new I know it can be done manually but since it's a user based website, how would the user(business)'s added locations correspond with the Google Maps? Can you point me in the right direction?

Hello, I have an Internet Radio station and I use Shoutcast. I have a function that allows me to grab the song and artist information such as Del Amitri - Roll To Me and show it on my website, and automatically changing when the songs change. I show the now playing, and last three songs. I'm wondering How I can get it to also pull in album artwork from Last.FM or Amazon such as this website: BIG 106.5 - Dayton's 70s & 80s Hits (move over the black bar and drop down). You will be able to see something such that I would want to accomplish. Not sure if this merely Javascript, or if there's also PHP.. but then again, I'd think Javascript for it to automatically change when a new song plays. Here is the file I currently have setup...which pulls the information from my shoutcast stream. I would love to incorporate album art from Amazon and/or an internal database that I have setup.. Here is what the file currently looks like. I also have stuff commented out for which I am not using ATTM. It pulls the song like artist - title <!--<html> <head>--> <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.3/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="http://wlqtdb.com/wayne/pollstation.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <!--</head> <body>--> Now Playing on WLQT-DB: <!--<div id="currentsong"> </div>--> <span id="currentsong"></span> Recently Played: <!--<table> <tr><th>Recently Played Songs</th></tr> <tr><td><img id='prevsong1' alt=""><span id="prevsong1"></span></td></tr> <tr><td><span id="prevsong2"></span></td></tr> <tr><td><span id="prevsong3"></span></td></tr>--> <span id="prevsong1"></span> <span id="prevsong2"></span> <span id="prevsong3"></span> <!--<tr><td><span id="prevsong4"></span></td></tr> <tr><td><span id="prevsong5"></span></td></tr> <tr><td><span id="prevsong6"></span></td></tr> <tr><td><span id="prevsong7"></span></td></tr> <tr><td><span id="prevsong8"></span></td></tr> <tr><td><span id="prevsong9"></span></td></tr> <tr><td><span id="prevsong10"></span></td></tr>--> <!-- </table> Testing: <? echo "$currentsong"; ?> </body> </html>--> Any help would be greatly appreciated. As you can see with this result, I do the Current playing song, then it does the last 3 songs. Thanks

Would like some thoughts about this autoloader for namespaces. Its loosely based on Zend Framework 2 using Composer. I wanted a simple loader for including my custom classes(ie DB connection, list and forms generations etc) in application modules. Autoloader works as expected so no error to debug, but looking more for improvements or gotcha's I'm not aware of.

I have code where I'm simply calling an API and I've converted it to loop the call so that I can call it with three different argument values. This is because the API is structured where it can accept one value for that argument at a time, but I need to compare the results of the three calls and I think the best way is to build a single array from the responses by either pushing a value if it exists or pushing the whole index if not. Think of it like the API response can give me data that can be as much as 400 products that are sold across 3 stores. All 400 may be sold in one store, but maybe only 120 in another and 100 in the third. I need my array to be all 400 products but I'll want to have an array within that holds the stores for the given product. Code: $IdentifierTest = 1472; $arguments = ['store 1', 'store 2', 'store 3']; $TestApi = app(TestApi::class); $newArray = array(); foreach($arguments as $argument){ $testResponse = $TestApi->getData($IdentifierTest, $argument); $Data = $testResponse->getResult()->getData(); // get the final results of call //check if array empty, and if so, push all records // if not empty, start checking 'id' against existing array records. If match, push stores. If not, add record to array } $this->makeFile($IdentifierTest, $Data); An example of the response is: array:426 [▼ 0 => prices {#2698 ▼ #container: array:11 [▼ "prd" => 2380 "id" => "173489" "price" => "65.00" ] } The issue is that specific example only shows up when calling the API with 'store 1' and 'store 2' as the argument, but not 'store 3'. What I'd like to do is call the API with each argument and create a new array with a ```stores``` index that pushes the store number if the id exists in the call, like so: array:426 [▼ 0 => prices {#2698 ▼ #container: array:11 [▼ "prd" => 2380 "id" => "173489" "price" => "65.00" stores: array[ 'store 1', 'store 2' ] ] } So when it's called with 'store 1' I would push the response into an array with 'store 1' as the value in 'stores', then on 'store 2' I would take the response and first check to see if the id exists in the array I've made. If it exists, I'll add 'store 2' to the 'stores' and if not I'll make a new index in the array. Basically, if product (id) 178293 is sold in all three stores then that means it would come back in all 3 API response calls and would end up being a single record in this new array with ```stores['store 1', 'store 2', 'store 3']``` How can I create a new array from this where I push only the stores if the id exists in the API call while keeping the current structure?
