Here's a small code snippet to enhance error logging:
public function generateContent(string $prompt)
{
try {
// Create content part with the prompt
$part = new GoogleCloudAiplatformV1Part();
$part->setText($prompt);
// Create the generate content request
$requestBody = new GoogleCloudAiplatformV1GenerateContentRequest();
$requestBody->setContents([
['parts' => [$part]]
]);
// Construct the full resource name including project, region, and model
$resourceName = sprintf('projects/%s/locations/%s/publishers/google/models/%s', $this->project_id, $this->region, $this->model_name);
// Make API call to generate content
$response = $this->aiplatform->projects_locations_publishers_models->generateContent(
$resourceName,
$requestBody
);
// Return the full api response.
return $response;
} catch (RequestException $e) {
// Log the error message and response
\Log::error("RequestException: " . $e->getMessage(), ['response' => $e->getResponse()]);
throw new Exception("Error generating content: " . $e->getMessage());
} catch (Exception $e){
// Log the error message
\Log::error("Exception: " . $e->getMessage());
throw new Exception("Unexpected error generating content: " . $e->getMessage());
