README

Async sockets is event-based library for asynchronous work with sockets built on php streams.

Features

• multiple requests execution at once
• distinguish frame boundaries
• server socket support
• persistent connections support
• multiple persistent connections to the same host:port
• processing TLS handshake asynchronous
• synchronization between sockets
• determine datagram size for UDP sockets
• all transports returned by stream_get_transports are supported
• compatible with symfony event dispatcher component
• full control over timeouts
• dynamically adding new request during execution process
• separate timeout values for each socket
• custom sockets setup by php stream contexts
• custom user context for each socket
• stop request either for certain socket or for all of them
• strategies for limiting number of running requests
• error handling is based on exceptions
• supports libevent engine

What is it for

Async sockets library provides networking layer for applications, hides complexity of I/O operations, and cares about connections management. The library will be a powerful base for implementing arbitrary networking protocol as for implementing server on PHP. Running multiple requests at once decreases delay of I/O operation to the size of timeout assigned to the slowest server.

Installation

The recommended way to install async sockets library is through composer

stable version:

$ composer require edefimov/async-sockets:~0.3.0 --prefer-dist|--prefer-source

actual version:

$ composer require edefimov/async-sockets:dev-master

Use --prefer-dist option in production environment, so as it ignores downloading of test and demo files, and --prefer-source option for development. Development version includes both test and demo files.

Quick start

Step 1. Create AsyncSocketFactory at point where you want to start request

$factory = new AsyncSocketFactory();

Step 2. Create RequestExecutor and proper amount of sockets

$client        = $factory->createSocket(AsyncSocketFactory::SOCKET_CLIENT);
$anotherClient = $factory->createSocket(AsyncSocketFactory::SOCKET_CLIENT);

$executor = $factory->createRequestExecutor();

Step 3. Create event handler with events, you are interested in

$handler = new CallbackEventHandler(
    [
        EventType::INITIALIZE   => [$this, 'onInitialize'],
        EventType::CONNECTED    => [$this, 'onConnected'],
        EventType::WRITE        => [$this, 'onWrite'],
        EventType::READ         => [$this, 'onRead'],
        EventType::ACCEPT       => [$this, 'onAccept'],
        EventType::DATA_ALERT   => [$this, 'onDataAlert'],
        EventType::DISCONNECTED => [$this, 'onDisconnected'],
        EventType::FINALIZE     => [$this, 'onFinalize'],
        EventType::EXCEPTION    => [$this, 'onException'],
        EventType::TIMEOUT      => [$this, 'onTimeout'],
    ]
);

Step 4. Add sockets into RequestExecutor

$executor->socketBag()->addSocket(
    $client, 
    new WriteOperation(), 
    [
        RequestExecutorInterface::META_ADDRESS => 'tls://github.com:443',
        RequestExecutorInterface::META_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT => 30,
        RequestExecutorInterface::META_IO_TIMEOUT => 5,
    ],
    $handler
);
$executor->socketBag()->addSocket(
    $anotherClient, 
    new WriteOperation(), 
    [
        RequestExecutorInterface::META_ADDRESS => 'tls://packagist.org:443',
        RequestExecutorInterface::META_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT => 10,
        RequestExecutorInterface::META_IO_TIMEOUT => 2,
    ],
    $handler
);

Step 5. Execute it!

$executor->executeRequest();

Example usage

Client socket

$factory = new AsyncSocketFactory();

$client        = $factory->createSocket(AsyncSocketFactory::SOCKET_CLIENT);
$anotherClient = $factory->createSocket(AsyncSocketFactory::SOCKET_CLIENT);

$executor = $factory->createRequestExecutor();

$handler = new CallbackEventHandler(
    [
        EventType::INITIALIZE   => [$this, 'onInitialize'],
        EventType::CONNECTED    => [$this, 'onConnected'],
        EventType::WRITE        => [$this, 'onWrite'],
        EventType::READ         => [$this, 'onRead'],
        EventType::DISCONNECTED => [$this, 'onDisconnected'],
        EventType::FINALIZE     => [$this, 'onFinalize'],
        EventType::EXCEPTION    => [$this, 'onException'],
        EventType::TIMEOUT      => [$this, 'onTimeout'],
    ]
);

$executor->socketBag()->addSocket(
    $client, 
    new WriteOperation(), 
    [
        RequestExecutorInterface::META_ADDRESS => 'tls://github.com:443',
        RequestExecutorInterface::META_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT => 30,
        RequestExecutorInterface::META_IO_TIMEOUT => 5,
    ],
    $handler
);
$executor->socketBag()->addSocket(
    $anotherClient, 
    new WriteOperation(), 
    [
        RequestExecutorInterface::META_ADDRESS => 'tls://packagist.org:443',
        RequestExecutorInterface::META_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT => 10,
        RequestExecutorInterface::META_IO_TIMEOUT => 2,
    ],
    $handler
);

$executor->executeRequest();

Server socket

$factory       = new AsyncSocketFactory();
$serverSocket  = $factory->createSocket(AsyncSocketFactory::SOCKET_SERVER);
$executor      = $factory->createRequestExecutor();

$executor->socketBag()->addSocket(
    $serverSocket,
    new ReadOperation(),
    [
        RequestExecutorInterface::META_ADDRESS            => "tcp://localhost:10280", // or "udp://localhost:10280"
        RequestExecutorInterface::META_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT => RequestExecutorInterface::WAIT_FOREVER,
        RequestExecutorInterface::META_IO_TIMEOUT         => RequestExecutorInterface::WAIT_FOREVER,
    ],
    new CallbackEventHandler(
        [
            EventType::ACCEPT => function (AcceptEvent $event){
                $event->getExecutor()->socketBag()->addSocket(
                    $event->getClientSocket(),
                    new ReadOperation(),
                    [ ],
                    // client handlers
                );
            }
        ]
    )
);

$executor->executeRequest();
