README

Non-blocking Redis pub/sub for Marko -- publish and subscribe over Redis with pattern support, powered by amphp for async I/O.

Overview

marko/pubsub-redis implements the marko/pubsub contracts using Redis PUB/SUB. RedisPublisher calls PUBLISH and RedisSubscriber supports both channel subscriptions (SUBSCRIBE) and pattern subscriptions (PSUBSCRIBE), making it the only built-in driver that supports psubscribe(). All I/O is non-blocking via amphp/redis.

Installation

composer require marko/pubsub-redis

This automatically installs marko/pubsub and marko/amphp.

Usage

The module binding wires PublisherInterface → RedisPublisher and SubscriberInterface → RedisSubscriber automatically. Type-hint against the interfaces in your services.

use Marko\PubSub\Message;
use Marko\PubSub\PublisherInterface;
use Marko\PubSub\SubscriberInterface;

// Publishing
$publisher->publish(
    channel: 'user.42',
    message: new Message(
        channel: 'user.42',
        payload: json_encode(['text' => 'Hello!']),
    ),
);

// Channel subscription
$subscription = $subscriber->subscribe('user.42');

foreach ($subscription as $message) {
    $data = json_decode($message->payload, true);
}

$subscription->cancel();

// Pattern subscription (Redis-only feature)
$subscription = $subscriber->psubscribe('user.*');

foreach ($subscription as $message) {
    // $message->pattern contains the matched pattern
    $data = json_decode($message->payload, true);
}

Configure the Redis connection in config/pubsub-redis.php:

return [
    'host'     => '127.0.0.1',
    'port'     => 6379,
    'password' => null,
    'database' => 0,
];

API Reference

RedisPublisher

Implements PublisherInterface. Applies the configured channel prefix and calls Redis PUBLISH.

public function publish(string $channel, Message $message): void;

RedisSubscriber

Implements SubscriberInterface. Supports both exact channel and pattern subscriptions.

public function subscribe(string ...$channels): Subscription;   // Redis SUBSCRIBE
public function psubscribe(string ...$patterns): Subscription;  // Redis PSUBSCRIBE

RedisSubscription

Iterates incoming Redis messages as Message instances. Implements Subscription (IteratorAggregate<int, Message>).

public function getIterator(): Generator; // yields Message
public function cancel(): void;

RedisPubSubConnection

Manages the amphp/redis client used by the publisher and the connector used by the subscriber.

AmphpRedisSubscriberInterface / DefaultAmphpRedisSubscriber

Internal abstraction over the amphp/redis subscriber. DefaultAmphpRedisSubscriber is the production implementation; the interface exists to allow substitution in tests.
