README
Eleven is a high-performance micro-framework for rapidly developing APIs in PHP. It's inspired by passwalls/mark
but takes a slightly different approach.
Install
composer require jonbaldie/eleven
Usage
<?php use Eleven\App; require 'vendor/autoload.php'; $api = new App('http://0.0.0.0:3000'); $api->count = 4; // process count $api->any('/', function ($request) { return 'Hello world'; }); $api->get('/hello/{name}', function ($request, $name) { return "Hello $name"; }); $api->post('/user/create', function ($request) { return json_encode(['code' => 200 ,'message' => 'OKAY'], JSON_PRETTY_PRINT); }); $api->start();
Run command php start.php start -d
Going to http://127.0.0.1:3000/hello/world will now display "Hello world".
Available commands
# To restart the worker threads:
php start.php restart -d
# To stop the worker threads:
php start.php stop
# To get a pretty status table:
php start.php status
# To see a list of active connections:
php start.php connections
Docker
I've used this package in thecodingmachine's excellent PHP images:
docker run -it -p 3000:3000 -e PHP_EXTENSION_REDIS=1 -v (pwd):/usr/src/app thecodingmachine/php:8.1-v4-cli bash
root@a6a4143b05cb:/usr/src/app# php start.php start -d
Workerman[start.php] start in DAEMON mode
----------------------------------------- WORKERMAN -----------------------------------------
Workerman version:4.0.26 PHP version:8.1.1
------------------------------------------ WORKERS ------------------------------------------
proto user worker listen processes status
tcp root none http://0.0.0.0:3000 4 [OK]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Input "php start.php stop" to stop. Start success.
Caveats
Storing your application in memory is a great way to get a massive speed boost and unbelievable resource efficiency.
But if you don't manage your application's state well, then you will start to see weird issues from data in one session leaking into another session.
This is why I try to avoid shared state and the use of static variables in PHP. These are very convenient when trying to rapidly build a project, but they will bite you in the rear at a later date, usually when you are least prepared for it!
One of the biggest pain points is user session data. Try using cookies or a remote store such as Redis to make sure that your worker threads are all singing from the same hymn sheet and to keep your application as stateless as possible.
You will write your best code when following the concept of a pure, deterministic state in your application, even if you don't subscribe fully to the paradigm of functional programming.
I love functional programming and think it is a great way to keep your code testable and maintainable - I even created a separate PHP skeleton project around those principles.
Roadmap
- Basic functionality
- Composer package published
- Test suite set up
- Static analysis set up
- CircleCI configuration
- v1.0.0 release
