MyLittlePing
============

[](#mylittleping)

Object oriented and full configurable implementation of ICMP echo request message.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

`composer require luklewluk/mylittleping`

Basic usage
-----------

[](#basic-usage)

Using dependency injection:

```
// Create object instances
$config = new Config();
$connection = new Socket($config);
$ping = new Ping($connection, $config);
// Send request
echo $ping->send('google.com') . PHP_EOL;

```

Using static factory:

```
$ping = Ping::createWithConnection(Socket::class);
echo $ping->send('google.com') . PHP_EOL;

```

Connection implementations
--------------------------

[](#connection-implementations)

### Socket

[](#socket)

The most advanced and customisable connection method.

Requires `root` access.

```
$connection = new Socket($config);

```

### Fsockopen

[](#fsockopen)

It is not recommended way to get exact latency time. Also it can return response time even if server is not responding.

The method does not support custom parameters.

```
$connection = new Fsockopen($config);

```

### Your own implementation

[](#your-own-implementation)

If you need to use your own connection method (i.e. "exec" way) you can easily do it by writing a new class which implements `ConnectionInterface`.

```
$ping = new Ping(new YourClass(), $config);

```

Custom parameters
-----------------

[](#custom-parameters)

List of available parameters to set:

### Port

[](#port)

```
$config->setPort(8080);

```

### Payload

[](#payload)

```
$config->setPayload('abcdefg');

```
