GASocket is a easy(with block) for PHP socket communication.
============================================================

[](#gasocket-is-a-easywith-block-for-php-socket-communication)

\#Introduction

The `SocketClient` class is used to create a socket communication from server.`SocketServer` class is used to listen the server port and create socket communication for client request.

GASocket mainly use the 'block' to receive callback.`socket_*` function is the core of GASocket.

When you use the GASocket as server, sever receive the `quit` data form clinet, this client connection will disconnect.Or receive the `shutdown` data from client, server will close in listening port and program execution is completed.

\#Installation

```
composer require ga/socket dev-master

```

\#Usage ##namespace `\ga\socket`

\##SocketConnection

**Config Params**`ip` : Connection ip address. `port` : Port. `callback` : When client receive the server's data ,this block will call. `domain`, `type`, `protocol` : According to [`socket_create()`](http://php.net/manual/en/function.socket-create.php) function to set up.(Default is TCP connection configuration). `sendTimeOut`,`recTimeOut` : According to [`socket_set_option()`](http://php.net/manual/en/function.socket-set-option.php) function to set up.(), these two params in seconds.

SocketClient Extends SocketConnection
-------------------------------------

[](#socketclient-extends-socketconnection)

**Config Params**`sync` : If `true` it was blocking mode.Default is `false` means it was 'nonblock' mode.
`sendData` : When connection is successful send the `sendData`.

**EXAMPLE 1:**

```
$soc = new SocketClient([
    'ip' => '127.0.0.1',
    'port' => '30000'
]);
$soc->sendData = 'data' . "\n";
$soc->callback = function($data, $socket) use ($soc){
    echo 'Client receive:' . $data ."\n";
};
$soc->start();
```

**NOTICE**In the client `$soc` is the same of `$socket`.

\##SocketServer Extends SocketConnection **Config Params**`singleMode` : The `true` means that the max number of clients is only one. `maxClients` : The max number of the clients to connect.(If `singleMode` was `true` ,this param is invalid, and it's default value is 10.)

**EXAMPLE 2:**

```
$soc = new SocketServer([
    'singleModel' =>true
]);
$soc->callback = function ($data, $socket) use($soc){

    echo 'server receive:' . $data ."\n";
    $soc->send($socket, 'Server has receive data'."\n\r");
};
$soc->start();
```

**NOTICE**`$soc` is the server socket variable, `$socket` is the current connected client socket.
