README

I have stopped development of this library due to the limitations in the PHP language.

If you are interested in my work in signal processing I will be releasing a successor to this library sometime in the future in a more suitable language.

XPSPL

PHP Signal and Event Library.

XPSPL is a high-performance event loop that supports the following event types,

• Signals
• Timers
• I/O (Asynchronous)
• Complex Signals
• Idle

The best way to think of XPSPL is as a libevent and libev library only written in PHP and much less mature.

I/O Poll Support

Currently the only supported polling mechnanism is select.

Install

XPSPL is installed using composer.

{
  'require': {
    'prggmr\xpspl': 'v5.0.0'
  }
}

Documentation

XPSPL's documentation is available at http://xpspl.readthedocs.org.

Threads

Threads are currently being experimented with using the pthreads PHP extension.
