EProcess
========

[](#eprocess)

[![Build Status](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/0180b105b4ac3900800fdb2dc4428d237ed024fbb6f81f35bc28ad898d3d6510/68747470733a2f2f7472617669732d63692e6f72672f637572736564636f6465722f6570726f636573732e7376673f6272616e63683d6d6173746572)](https://travis-ci.org/cursedcoder/eprocess)

The idea is to have multiple non-blocking contexts with a transparent inter-process communication out of the box.

This lib is just a PoC, use at your own risk.

Check out examples in `examples/` dir.

Features
========

[](#features)

- 3 adapters: child process (react), pthreads, symfony process (not tested)
- inter-process communication between childs-parent using unix sockets
- simple serialization for objects(jms serializer), arrays, scalars
- async event-driven flow (react eventloop)
- integration with frameworks, see `EProcess\Application\ContainerApplication` for Symfony
- child workers can have own child workers (i.e. `main -> worker -> worker ...`)

Install&try
===============

[](#installtry)

- `git clone https://github.com/cursedcoder/eprocess`
- `cd eprocess`
- `composer install`
- `php examples/simple.php`

Example explains features
=========================

[](#example-explains-features)

Be aware this snippet below is only for explanatory reasons and will not work out (or at least yet).

For real examples see `exampes/simple.php` and related.

```
use EProcess\Application\Application;
use EProcess\Application\ApplicationFactory;

class Data
{
  // jms serializer metadata
  private $id;
  // setters getters etc.
}

class Main extends Application // like that one in c++
{
    public function run()
    {
        $worker = $this->createWorker(MyWorker::class); // create external non-blocking thread of MyWorker class
        $worker->send('any_event', 'Hello my worker!');
        $worker->on('hello_master', function() {
            // Receive back-call from child
        });
    }
}

class MyWorker extends Application
{
    public function run()
    {
        $this->on('any_event', function($data) {
            echo 'Got any_event event from my master: ' . $data; // data == Hello my worker
            // Still we can send any event back to master
            $this->send('hello_master');
            $this->send('send-any-data', new Data()); // you can send any object, array or scalar
            // object should have jms serializer metadata to be serialized
        });

        $this->getSubscribedEvents();
    }
}

ApplicationFactory::launch(Main::class);
```

You need to have proper autoloading established in order to use this example.
