Modern implementations share a dispatch layer (`ApiProviderInterface`, `MethodInvokerInterface`) across protocols — write a provider once, serve it over JSON-RPC, MCP, and SOAP. Protocols --------- [](#protocols) ### JSON-RPC [](#json-rpc) Modern[`src/JsonRpc/`](src/JsonRpc/) — PSR-7/15/18, JSON-RPC [1.1](https://www.jsonrpc.org/historical/json-rpc-1-1-alt.html) and [2.0](https://www.jsonrpc.org/specification)Legacy[`lib/Horde/Rpc/Jsonrpc.php`](lib/Horde/Rpc/Jsonrpc.php)Docs[`doc/JSONRPC-USAGE.md`](doc/JSONRPC-USAGE.md)### MCP (Model Context Protocol) [](#mcp-model-context-protocol) Modern[`src/Mcp/`](src/Mcp/) — [MCP spec](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-11-25), Streamable HTTP transportDocs[`doc/MCP-USAGE.md`](doc/MCP-USAGE.md)### SOAP [](#soap) Modern[`src/Soap/`](src/Soap/) — PSR-15, ext-soap (optional) in WSDL-less modeLegacy[`lib/Horde/Rpc/Soap.php`](lib/Horde/Rpc/Soap.php)Docs[`doc/SOAP-USAGE.md`](doc/SOAP-USAGE.md)### XML-RPC [](#xml-rpc) Legacy[`lib/Horde/Rpc/Xmlrpc.php`](lib/Horde/Rpc/Xmlrpc.php) — requires ext-xmlrpc, will probably not work in most modern PHP installations [XML-RPC spec](http://xmlrpc.com/spec.md)### Delegation Protocols [](#delegation-protocols) These delegate to other Horde packages: - **ActiveSync** — [`lib/Horde/Rpc/ActiveSync.php`](lib/Horde/Rpc/ActiveSync.php) → `horde/activesync` - **WebDAV / CalDAV / CardDAV** — [`lib/Horde/Rpc/Webdav.php`](lib/Horde/Rpc/Webdav.php) → `horde/dav` - **SyncML** — [`lib/Horde/Rpc/Syncml.php`](lib/Horde/Rpc/Syncml.php) → `horde/syncml` (deprecated) - **PHPGroupware XML-RPC** — [`lib/Horde/Rpc/Phpgw.php`](lib/Horde/Rpc/Phpgw.php) (deprecated) Shared Dispatch Layer --------------------- [](#shared-dispatch-layer) ``` JsonRpcHandler ──┐ McpServer ───────┤── ApiProviderInterface / MethodInvokerInterface SoapHandler ─────┘ ``` ### Providers [](#providers) [`CallableMapProvider`](src/JsonRpc/Dispatch/CallableMapProvider.php) - a generic map of callables to API names [`MathApiProvider`](src/JsonRpc/Dispatch/MathApiProvider.php) - an educational example API provider [`HordeRegistryApiProvider`](src/JsonRpc/Dispatch/HordeRegistryApiProvider.php) - Integrates the Horde Registry Inter-App API All modern handlers implement both `RequestHandlerInterface` and `MiddlewareInterface` for flexible middleware stacking. ### Health Score 57 — FairBetter than 98% of packages Maintenance92 Actively maintained with recent releases Popularity26 Limited adoption so far Community32 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity70 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 62.5% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio. Uses a 2-year decay window. **Popularity (30%)** — Total and monthly downloads, GitHub stars, and forks. Logarithmic scaling prevents top-heavy scores. **Community (15%)** — Contributors, dependents, forks, watchers, and maintainers. Measures real ecosystem engagement. **Maturity (30%)** — Project age, version count, PHP version support, and release stability. ### Release Activity Cadence Every ~302 days Recently: every ~322 days Total 14 Last Release 56d ago Major Versions 2.1.9 → 3.0.0alpha12021-02-24 PHP version history (7 changes)2.1.5PHP >=5.3.0,<=6.0.0alpha1 2.1.6PHP >=5.3.0,<=8.0.0alpha1 2.1.8PHP ^5.3 || ^7 3.0.0alpha1PHP ^7 v3.0.0alpha4PHP ^7.4 || ^8 v3.0.0beta1PHP ^8 v3.0.0beta2PHP ^8.2 ### Community Maintainers ![](https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/c943a083635c28520599075eaea7ede2d743b7697b76e84d6bdc37e52cc8249b?d=identicon)[yunosh](/maintainers/yunosh) ![](https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/c931cd02664859360478593450d6c473a05bb12b209dfacfc534cd13257cc7ef?d=identicon)[ralflang](/maintainers/ralflang) ![](https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/e4f6c6771993db2ed500959b42353f6cf6a2ca0406d9617f7ae680f4504faa4a?d=identicon)[horde](/maintainers/horde) ![](https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/a7767adb66b45f2f05bcd44d49bc4e67efacd9ce05b161ce2d481d5dd6af025c?d=identicon)[mrubinsk](/maintainers/mrubinsk) --- Top Contributors [![yunosh](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/379318?v=4)](https://github.com/yunosh "yunosh (237 commits)")[![mrubinsk](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/66822?v=4)](https://github.com/mrubinsk "mrubinsk (81 commits)")[![ralflang](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/646976?v=4)](https://github.com/ralflang "ralflang (27 commits)")[![slusarz](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/381003?v=4)](https://github.com/slusarz "slusarz (20 commits)")[![midahp](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/19747890?v=4)](https://github.com/midahp "midahp (4 commits)")[![wrobel](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/10232?v=4)](https://github.com/wrobel "wrobel (4 commits)")[![renan](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/28046?v=4)](https://github.com/renan "renan (3 commits)")[![thomasjfox](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1146758?v=4)](https://github.com/thomasjfox "thomasjfox (1 commits)")[![bklang](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/167131?v=4)](https://github.com/bklang "bklang (1 commits)")[![duritong](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/9511?v=4)](https://github.com/duritong "duritong (1 commits)") --- Tags psr-15soapjsonrpcjson-rpcactivesync ### Embed Badge ![Health badge](/badges/horde-rpc/health.svg) ``` [![Health](https://phpackages.com/badges/horde-rpc/health.svg)](https://phpackages.com/packages/horde-rpc) ``` ### Alternatives [horde/kronolith Calendar and scheduling application 101.3k4](/packages/horde-kronolith)[horde/horde Horde base application 582.7k62](/packages/horde-horde)[cakephp/cakephp The CakePHP framework 8.8k19.1M1.7k](/packages/cakephp-cakephp)[typo3/cms TYPO3 CMS is a free open source Content Management Framework initially created by Kasper Skaarhoj and licensed under GNU/GPL. 1.2k1.9M122](/packages/typo3-cms)[tempest/framework The PHP framework that gets out of your way. 2.2k31.1k12](/packages/tempest-framework)[horde/imp Webmail application 261.1k](/packages/horde-imp) PHPackages © 2026 [Directory](/)[Categories](/categories)[Trending](/trending)[Changelog](/changelog)[Analyze](/analyze)
