Josser - JSON-RPC client for PHP 5.3+
=====================================

[](#josser---json-rpc-client-for-php-53)

JSON-RPC? What is it?
---------------------

[](#json-rpc-what-is-it)

JSON-RPC is a stateless, light-weight remote procedure call protocol encoded in JSON. It is a very simple protocol, defining only a handful of data types and commands.

Which specification of JSON-RPC does Josser support?
----------------------------------------------------

[](#which-specification-of-json-rpc-does-josser-support)

Josser supports \[JSON-RPC 1.0\] () and \[revised JSON-RPC 2.0\] (). Unfortunately only client-server connections are possible with Josser - albeit JSON-RPC 1.0 was designed as P2P - due to PHP limitations.

It is worth to mention that Josser's architecture allows to plug your own JSON-RPC flavours or implement existing semi-standardized JSON-RPC protocols e.g. abandoned JSON-RPC 1.1WD.

Transport mechanism
-------------------

[](#transport-mechanism)

As specification (both 1.0 and 2.0) states, JSON-RPC is transport agnostic. Josser sticks to that and allows to use http, sockets, tcp/ip or anything else your project requires (like post-it notes on a fridge :D). Currently only http transport is implemented.

Usage

Invoking remote methods is fairly simple:
