Is the PDF file upload feature supported?

[michabbb]

@tsaneyoshi nope, that´s why i added it myself, see the example on top in the readme, it´s not perfect, but working....

@michabbb I try to install https://github.com/michabbb/gemini-php-sdk via composer.json on my Laravel app, but it doesn’t seem to work. Do you have any plans to publish it on Packagist?

[michabbb]

@daiduong47 what´s your definition of "does not work" ? 😏 you put

"repositories": [
    {
      "type": "vcs",
      "url": "https://github.com/michabbb/gemini-php-sdk.git"
    }
  ],

into your composer.json and install the package as usual. right now I see many improvements here that are missing in my fork because my main focus was using some beta stuff which the owner always refused to implement (in the past).

@michabbb Thank you for your quick response. Below is the log I encountered, even though I followed your instructions as mentioned above. Of course, many other sources also guide similarly. I might have missed something. Please help me if possible, thank you.

composer require michabbb/gemini-php-sdk

In PackageDiscoveryTrait.php line 368:

  Could not find a matching version of package michabbb/gemini-php-sdk. Check the package spelling, your version constraint and that the package is available in a stability which matches your minimum-stability (dev).

Also, I’m really interested in the file attachment and analysis feature you shared, especially with PDF files. I’ve moved from Python and am currently looking for a package with similar features as those native to Python packages. Although I think it’s hard to be as complete, the ease and friendliness of PHP always tempt us.

I hope we can collaborate in the future to further develop this feature here. Thank you again.

@daiduong47 as explained, you have to add the entry into your composer.json which tells composer: "I want this package to be installed from a different source".

so your command should be: composer require google-gemini-php/client:dev-main

exactly! this is an incredible feature of gemini and very underrated. the super long context window and the file-upload feature together is something many other don´t provide 😏

i do hope as well that this gets integrated here soon ❤️

for everybody else stumbling over this issue: here´s the plain code that shows how to upload files to the Gemini API.

@michabbb Thank you so much! The error was on my end, but I’ve successfully integrated it now. Instead of running composer require google-gemini-php/client:dev-main I mistakenly ran composer require michabbb/gemini-php-sdk:dev-main Quite a funny and silly mistake.

Regarding this package, I noticed a few points that need further attention. I’ll be looking into the Python package and seeing what improvements I can make within my PHP capabilities. It was great talking with you. Thank you again!
