    'Stainless Steel Water Bottle',
    'Organic Cotton T-Shirt'
);

    'auto_publish' => false,
    'category' => 'electronics'

API Integration

Custom AI Service Integration

// Hook into the AI generation process
add_filter('apc_ai_prompt_template', function($template, $product_name) {
    return "Create an engaging description for {$product_name} that highlights its unique selling points.";
}, 10, 2);

// Modify generated descriptions
add_filter('apc_generated_description', function($description, $product_name) {
    // Add custom footer or modify content
    return $description . "\n\nFree shipping on orders over $50!";
}, 10, 2);

Custom Image Sources

// Add custom image search source
add_filter('apc_image_search_sources', function($sources) {
    $sources['custom'] = 'Custom Image API';
    return $sources;
});

// Handle custom image search
add_action('apc_search_custom_images', function($query, $options) {
    // Implement your custom image search logic
    $images = your_custom_image_search($query);
    return $images;
}, 10, 2);

Security Considerations

API Key Security

1. Environment Variables: Store API keys in environment variables

   // In wp-config.php
   define('APC_OPENAI_API_KEY', getenv('OPENAI_API_KEY'));
   define('APC_UNSPLASH_ACCESS_KEY', getenv('UNSPLASH_ACCESS_KEY'));

2. File Permissions: Ensure proper file permissions

   chmod 644 *.php
   chmod 755 includes/
   chmod 644 includes/*.php

3. Database Security: All inputs are sanitized and validated

   // Example of plugin's security measures
   $product_name = sanitize_text_field($_POST['product_name']);
   $category = intval($_POST['category']);
   check_admin_referer('apc_create_product', 'apc_nonce');

Content Filtering

// Add content filtering hooks
add_filter('apc_description_content', 'wp_kses_post');
add_filter('apc_image_alt_text', 'sanitize_text_field');

Testing

Unit Testing Setup

# Install PHPUnit
composer require --dev phpunit/phpunit

# Run tests
./vendor/bin/phpunit tests/

Test Cases

// Example test case
class APC_AI_Service_Test extends WP_UnitTestCase {

    public function test_description_generation() {
        $ai_service = new APC_AI_Service();
        $description = $ai_service->generate_description('Test Product');

        $this->assertNotEmpty($description);
        $this->assertLessThan(500, strlen($description));
    }

    public function test_image_search() {
        $image_search = new APC_Image_Search();
        $images = $image_search->search_images('laptop');

        $this->assertIsArray($images);
        $this->assertGreaterThan(0, count($images));
    }
}

Performance Optimization

Caching Implementation

// Cache AI responses
add_action('apc_description_generated', function($description, $product_name) {
    $cache_key = 'apc_desc_' . md5($product_name);
    wp_cache_set($cache_key, $description, 'apc_descriptions', 3600);
}, 10, 2);

// Cache image search results
add_action('apc_images_found', function($images, $query) {
    $cache_key = 'apc_images_' . md5($query);
    wp_cache_set($cache_key, $images, 'apc_images', 1800);
}, 10, 2);

Database Optimization

-- Add indexes for better performance
ALTER TABLE wp_apc_product_generation_log 
ADD INDEX idx_product_name (product_name);

ALTER TABLE wp_apc_product_generation_log 
ADD INDEX idx_generation_date (generation_date);

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. API Connection Fails

   • Verify API keys are correct
   • Check internet connectivity
   • Ensure proper SSL/TLS configuration

2. Images Not Downloading

   • Check file permissions on uploads directory
   • Verify API quotas not exceeded
   • Ensure sufficient disk space

3. Descriptions Not Generated

   • Verify OpenAI API key and quota
   • Check error logs: wp-content/debug.log
   • Test API connection in settings

Debug Mode

// Enable debug logging
define('WP_DEBUG', true);
define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true);
define('APC_DEBUG', true);

// View logs
tail -f wp-content/debug.log | grep "APC"
