socket.io-php-emitter
=====================

[](#socketio-php-emitter)

A PHP implementation of socket.io-emitter.

This project requires a Redis client for PHP. If you dont have the [PECL Redis](https://github.com/nicolasff/phpredis) installed, the emitter will default to using [TinyRedisClient](https://github.com/ptrofimov/tinyredisclient). You can, however, pass in any Redis client that supports a `publish` method.

Installation and development
----------------------------

[](#installation-and-development)

To install and use in your PHP project, install it as a [composer package](https://packagist.org/packages/rase/socket.io-emitter). Install dependencies with `composer install`.

To run tests, invoke `make test`. The current test suite will just be checking redis monitor that everything is published correctly. Some work will be put into making a better integration test suite in the near future.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Initialization

[](#initialization)

```
$redis = new \Redis(); // Using the Redis extension provided client
$redis->connect('127.0.0.1', '6379');
$emitter = new SocketIO\Emitter($redis);
$emitter->emit('event', 'payload str');
```

### Broadcasting and other flags

[](#broadcasting-and-other-flags)

Possible flags

- json
- volatile
- broadcast

```
// Below initialization will create a  phpredis client, or a TinyRedisClient depending on what is installed
$emitter = new SocketIO\Emitter(array('port' => '6379', 'host' => '127.0.0.1'));
// broadcast can be replaced by any of the other flags
$emitter->broadcast->emit('other event', 'such data');
```

### Emitting objects

[](#emitting-objects)

```
$emitter = new SocketIO\Emitter(); // If arguments are not provided, they will default to array('port' => '6379', 'host' => '127.0.0.1')
$emitter->emit('event', array('property' => 'much value', 'another' => 'very object'));
```
