Embeddable AI chatbot for documentation, powered by SQLite Cloud.
Before using this chatbot, you need to:
- Index your documentation - Use the SQLite AI Search Action to create embeddings from your documentation files
- Create an edge function - Follow the setup guide to deploy the search edge function
npm install @sqliteai/docs-chatbotimport { DocsChatbot } from "@sqliteai/docs-chatbot";
import "@sqliteai/docs-chatbot/style.css";
function App() {
return (
<DocsChatbot
searchUrl="https://yourproject.sqlite.cloud/v2/functions/aisearch-docs"
apiKey="your-api-key"
title="Help Center"
/>
);

Adds a floating button in the bottom-right corner that opens the chatbot when clicked.
<DocsChatbot
searchUrl="your-edge-function-url"
apiKey="your-api-key"
title="Help Center"
/>
Use your own button or trigger element to control when the chatbot opens. This mode is useful when you want the chatbot to integrate seamlessly with your existing UI design or place the trigger in a specific location (like a navigation bar or help menu).
React:
import { DocsChatbot } from "@sqliteai/docs-chatbot";

import { useState } from "react";
function App() {
const [open, setOpen] = useState(false);
return (
<>
{/* Your custom button anywhere in your app */}
<button onClick={() => setOpen(true)}>Help & Support</button>
{/* Chatbot with custom trigger mode */}
<DocsChatbot
