[![BigPipe logo](bigpipe.svg)](bigpipe.svg)

This library currently implements small part of [Facebook BigPipe](https://web.archive.org/web/20160223093221/https://www.facebook.com/notes/facebook-engineering/bigpipe-pipelining-web-pages-for-high-performance/389414033919) so far, but the advantage is to efficiently insert/replace content and work with the DOM. It is also possible to easily call JavaScript modules from PHP.

👀 Demo App
----------

[](#-demo-app)

Try the app with [live demo](http://bigpipe.xf.cz) or check how to [install](demo-app/README.md).

📕 Full documentation
--------------------

[](#-full-documentation)

ℹ️ Requirements
---------------

[](#ℹ️-requirements)

- PHP 7.1 or higher
- Webpack

📦 Installation
--------------

[](#-installation)

Follow these steps to install and set up:

### 1. Install composer package:

[](#1-install-composer-package)

```
$ composer require richarddobron/bigpipe
```

### 2. Install npm package:

[](#2-install-npm-package)

```
$ npm install bigpipe-util
```

### 3. Add the following to `/path/to/resources/js/app.js`:

[](#3-add-the-following-to-pathtoresourcesjsappjs)

```
import Primer from 'bigpipe-util/src/Primer';

Primer();

window.require = (modulePath) => {
    return modulePath.startsWith('bigpipe-util/')
        ? require('bigpipe-util/' + modulePath.substring(13) + '.js').default
        : require('./' + modulePath).default;
};
```

### 4. Add this line to the page footer:

[](#4-add-this-line-to-the-page-footer)

```

```

🪄 DOMOPS API
------------

[](#-domops-api)

- **setContent**: Sets the content of an element.
- **appendContent**: Insert content as the last child of specified element.
- **prependContent**: Insert content as the first child of specified element.
- **insertAfter**: Insert content after specified element.
- **insertBefore**: Insert content before specified element.
- **remove**: Remove specified element and its children.
- **replace**: Replace specified element with content.
- **eval**: Evaluates JavaScript code represented as a string.

```
$response = new \dobron\BigPipe\AsyncResponse();

$response->setContent('div#content', $newContent);
$response->send();
```

🔄 Refresh & Redirecting
---------------------------

[](#-refresh--redirecting)

```
$response = new \dobron\BigPipe\AsyncResponse();

$response->reload(250); // reload page with 250ms delay
// or
$response->redirect('/onboarding', 500); // redirect with 500ms delay

$response->send();
```

ℹ️ Payload
----------

[](#ℹ️-payload)

```
$response = new \dobron\BigPipe\AsyncResponse();

$response->setPayload([
    'username' => $_POST['username'],
    'status' => 'unavailable',
    'message' => 'Username is unavailable.',
]);

$response->send();
```

🛠️ BigPipe API
--------------

[](#️-bigpipe-api)

- **require**: Call JavaScript module method. You can call a specific class method or a regular function with the custom arguments.

Example PHP code:

```
$asyncResponse = new \dobron\BigPipe\AsyncResponse();

$asyncResponse->bigPipe()->require("require('SecretModule').run()", [
    'first argument',
    'second argument',
    ...
]);
// is same as $asyncResponse->bigPipe()->require(["SecretModule", "run"], ...)
// is same as $asyncResponse->bigPipe()->require()->SecretModule()->run(...)
$asyncResponse->send();
```

Example JavaScript code:

```
class SecretModule {
    run(first, second) {
        // ...
    }
}
```

- **transport**: Through transport markers you can send HTML content but also transform the content into JavaScript objects (such as Map, Set or Element).

Example PHP code:

```
$asyncResponse = new \dobron\BigPipe\AsyncResponse();
$asyncResponse->bigPipe()->require("require('Chart').setup()", [
    'element' => \dobron\BigPipe\TransportMarker::transportElement('chart-div'),
    'dataPoints' => $asyncResponse->transport()->transportSet([
        ['x' => 10, 'y' => 71],
        ['x' => 20, 'y' => 55],
        ['x' => 30, 'y' => 50],
        ['x' => 40, 'y' => 65],
    ]),
]);
$asyncResponse->send();
```

🌟 Inspiration
-------------

[](#-inspiration)

BigPipe is inspired by Facebook's BigPipe. For more details read their blog post: [Pipelining web pages for high performance](https://web.archive.org/web/20160223093221/https://www.facebook.com/notes/facebook-engineering/bigpipe-pipelining-web-pages-for-high-performance/389414033919).

💡 Motivation
------------

[](#-motivation)

There is a large number of PHP projects for which moving to modern frameworks like Laravel Livewire, React, Vue.js (and many more!) could be very challenging.

The purpose of this library is to rapidly reduce the continuously repetitive code to work with the DOM and improve the communication barrier between PHP and JavaScript.
