AiWire

AiWire — AI Integration Module for ProcessWire

Connect your ProcessWire site to AI providers: Anthropic (Claude), OpenAI (GPT), Google (Gemini), xAI (Grok), and OpenRouter (400+ models).

Manage multiple API keys per provider, test connections from admin, and use AI in your templates with a clean PHP API.

Full documentation with 25 real-world examples → DOCUMENTATION.md

Features

• 5 providers — Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, xAI, OpenRouter
• Multiple API keys per provider with enable/disable toggle
• Automatic fallback — if one key/provider fails, the next one takes over
• Connection testing — verify each key with one click in admin
• Test Chat — interactive chat with parameter controls (temperature, tokens, model)
• File cache — TTL-based caching (day/week/month/year) with page context
• Field storage — save AI content to page fields for permanent, editable storage
• Content blocks — generate() method for multi-block pages (overview, FAQ, pairings…)
• Conversation history — multi-turn chat support
• Cost optimization — route tasks to different providers/models by complexity
• Logging — standard + debug logging via ProcessWire log system

Requirements

• PHP 8.1+
• ProcessWire 3.0.210+

Getting API Keys

Quick Start

$ai = $modules->get('AiWire');

// Simple — returns text only
echo $ai->chat('What is ProcessWire CMS?');

// Full response with metadata
$result = $ai->ask('Explain quantum computing in simple terms');
if ($result['success']) {
    echo $result['content'];              // AI response text
    echo $result['usage']['total_tokens']; // tokens used
}

// Fallback — tries Anthropic → OpenAI → Google
$result = $ai->askWithFallback('Summarize this article...', [
    'provider'          => 'anthropic',
    'fallbackProviders' => ['openai', 'google'],
]);

// Generate multiple AI blocks for a product page
$results = $ai->generate($page, [
    ['field' => 'ai_overview',    'prompt' => "Write overview of {$page->title}..."],
    ['field' => 'ai_food_pairing','prompt' => "Suggest pairings for {$page->title}..."],
    ['field' => 'ai_brand_story', 'prompt' => "Share 3 facts about {$page->brand->title}..."],
], ['cache' => 'M', 'temperature' => 0.7]);
