Build Status Coverage Status

This library contains WebSocket client and server for PHP. Replaces textalk/websocket.

The client and server provides methods for reading and writing to WebSocket streams.

This repo replaces the abandoned textalk/websocket repo and is maintained by Sören Jensen, who has been maintaining the original since v1.3.

Installing

Preferred way to install is with Composer.

composer require phrity/websocket

Client

The client can read and write on a WebSocket stream. It internally supports Upgrade handshake and implicit close and ping/pong operations.

Set up a WebSocket Client for request/response strategy.

$client = new WebSocket\Client("wss://echo.websocket.org/");
$client
    // Add standard middlewares
    ->addMiddleware(new WebSocket\Middleware\CloseHandler())
    ->addMiddleware(new WebSocket\Middleware\PingResponder())
    ;

// Send a message
$client->text("Hello WebSocket.org!");

// Read response (this is blocking)
$message = $client->receive();
echo "Got message: {$message->getContent()} \n";

// Close connection
$client->close();

Set up a WebSocket Client for continuous subscription

$client = new WebSocket\Client("wss://echo.websocket.org/");
$client
    // Add standard middlewares
    ->addMiddleware(new WebSocket\Middleware\CloseHandler())
    ->addMiddleware(new WebSocket\Middleware\PingResponder())
    // Listen to incoming Text messages
    ->onText(function (WebSocket\Client $client, WebSocket\Connection $connection, WebSocket\Message\Message $message) {
        // Act on incoming message
        echo "Got message: {$message->getContent()} \n";
        // Possibly respond to server
        $client->text("I got your your message");
    })
    ->start();

Server

The server is a multi connection, listening server. It internally supports Upgrade handshake and implicit close and ping/pong operations.

Set up a WebSocket Server for continuous listening

$server = new WebSocket\Server();
$server
    // Add standard middlewares
    ->addMiddleware(new WebSocket\Middleware\CloseHandler())
    ->addMiddleware(new WebSocket\Middleware\PingResponder())
    // Listen to incoming Text messages
    ->onText(function (WebSocket\Server $server, WebSocket\Connection $connection, WebSocket\Message\Message $message) {
        // Act on incoming message
        echo "Got message: {$message->getContent()} \n";
        // Possibly respond to client
        $connection->text("I got your your message");
    })
    ->start();
