README

A Laravel wrapper for the Alt PHP Cognee SDK - Transform raw data into persistent AI memory for your Laravel applications.

Requirements

• PHP 8.2 or higher
• Laravel 11.x or 12.x
• A running Cognee instance

Installation

Install the package via Composer:

composer require wishborn/laravel-cognee

The package will automatically register its service provider and facade.

Publish Configuration

Publish the configuration file:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=cognee-config

This will create a config/cognee.php file in your application.

Configuration

Add the following environment variables to your .env file:

COGNEE_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8000
COGNEE_API_KEY=your-api-key
COGNEE_TIMEOUT=30
COGNEE_RETRY_ATTEMPTS=3

Usage

Using the Facade

use Wishborn\Cognee\Facades\Cognee;

// Create a dataset
$dataset = Cognee::datasets()->create('my-dataset');

// Add data to a dataset
Cognee::datasets()->add(new AddDataRequest(
    data: 'Your text content here',
    datasetId: $dataset->id,
));

// Cognify (process into knowledge graph)
Cognee::datasets()->cognify(new CognifyRequest(
    datasetIds: [$dataset->id],
));

// Search the knowledge graph
$results = Cognee::search()->search(new SearchRequest(
    query: 'your search query',
    searchType: SearchType::CHUNKS,
    datasetIds: [$dataset->id],
));

Using Dependency Injection

use Wishborn\Cognee\CogneeManager;

class MyController extends Controller
{
    public function __construct(
        protected CogneeManager $cognee
    ) {}

    public function search(Request $request)
    {
        $results = $this->cognee->search()->search(
            new SearchRequest(
                query: $request->input('query'),
                searchType: SearchType::CHUNKS,
            )
        );

        return response()->json($results);
    }
}

Accessing the SDK Client Directly

For advanced operations not covered by the wrapper methods:

$client = Cognee::client();

// Use any SDK method directly
$auth = $client->auth();
$permissions = $client->permissions();
