Since the original repo is not being maintained anymore and is having compatibility problems with newer versions of Socket.io, I recommend using this repo, and also submitting issues here. [@ashiina](https://github.com/ashiina) socket.io-php-emitter ===================== [](#socketio-php-emitter) A PHP implementation of socket.io-emitter. Install and Set Up ------------------ [](#install-and-set-up) ### 1. socket.io-php-emitter [](#1-socketio-php-emitter) To install and use in your PHP project, install it as a [composer package](https://packagist.org/packages/ashiina/socket.io-emitter). Install dependencies with `composer install`. ### 2. Redis server [](#2-redis-server) You need a redis server to emit events to. Set up your redis server. ### 3. socket.io-redis (node.js) [](#3-socketio-redis-nodejs) To receive the emitted events, you are required to use `socket.io-redis`. It will automatically handle the event published from `socket.io-php-emitter`. Install and set up from here : 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')); ``` ### About PHP Redis clients [](#about-php-redis-clients) 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. ### Development [](#development) 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. ### Health Score 19 — LowBetter than 9% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity12 Limited adoption so far Community10 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity31 Early-stage or recently created project Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 57.6% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
