[](#raw)

### Sockets

[](#sockets)

It's the most simple sockets use, using the sockets php library, can be used for tcp and udp connections. No need factory, using full domain on construct, with protocol as schema, it parse and config the socket\_client

```
$client = new RawSocketClient('tcp://host.docker.internal:8001');
```

Stream
------

[](#stream)

Powerfull socket type, using streams, can be instantiated or use the Factory in order to auto-select the rigth Client type

```
$stream = (new StreamSocketClientFactory)->createFromUrl('ftp://ftp.ftpserver.com:21');
```

[](#stream-socket)

For use with own servers, Email, FTP, etc...

```
$socket = (new StreamSocketClientFactory)->createFromUrl('ftps://ftp.ftpserver.com:21');
$socket->connect();
echo $socket->read(); //220-Juancho's home SSH server
$socket->write("AUTH TLS\r\n");
echo $response = $socket->read(); //234 Security mechanism set to TLS
if (str_starts_with($response, 234)) {
    $socket->setCrypto(true);
    $socket->write("USER username\r\n");
    echo $response = $socket->read(); //331 Need password
    $socket->write("PASS password\r\n");
    echo $response = $socket->read(); //230 User logged in (elevated)
}
$socket->write("QUIT\r\n");
echo $response = $socket->read(); //221 Service closing control connection
```

### Web Sockets

[](#web-sockets)

This is an extension of StreamSocket (normal and secure) but perform the needed handshake with the server on connect. Actually, it do a handshake v1, but we are in process to implements v2 and v3
