Features -------- [](#features) - **WebSocket Client & Server:** Real-time, low-latency, and scalable client-server communication. - **Pub/Sub Management:** A flexible pub/sub architecture for efficient message publishing and sharing. - **Event-Based Listening:** You can listen to events created for both the client and server to execute operations. - **Extensible Architecture:** Driver and broker infrastructure easily extendable to meet your needs. Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - PHP 8.2 or higher - Laravel 10.x or higher - [Swoole](https://swoole.com/) Extension - Redis (For broker support) Installation ------------ [](#installation) ### Installation via Composer [](#installation-via-composer) Use Composer to add the package to your Laravel project: ``` composer require squirtle/websocket ``` Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) After installing the package, publish the configuration files: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Squirtle\WebSocket\WebSocketServiceProvider" ``` In the published `config/websocket.php` file, you can configure Swoole, Redis, and other settings according to your needs. Usage ----- [](#usage) ### Starting the WebSocket Client [](#starting-the-websocket-client) You can start your WebSocket client using the following Artisan command: ``` php artisan websocket:client ``` ``` php artisan websocket:client --broker=redis --driver=swoole --host=127.0.0.1 --port=6001 --debug ``` ### Starting the WebSocket Server [](#starting-the-websocket-server) You can start your WebSocket server using the following Artisan command: ``` php artisan websocket:serve ``` Event Listening --------------- [](#event-listening) By creating listener classes, you can listen to events on the WebSocket client/server and perform actions accordingly. Extensibility ------------- [](#extensibility) ### Extending the WebSocket Client [](#extending-the-websocket-client) To add your own WebSocket client driver instead of the default Swoole driver, implement the `ClientInterface`. Define the required methods and configure the package’s settings to make the new driver selectable. ### Extending the WebSocket Server [](#extending-the-websocket-server) By default, the Swoole driver is used, but you can add your own WebSocket driver to meet your specific needs. To do this, implement the `ServerInterface`, define the required methods, and make the new driver selectable from the package’s configuration file. ### Extending the Broker System [](#extending-the-broker-system) To integrate different broker systems besides Redis, implement the `PubSubManager` interface to create your custom broker class. Then, configure the necessary settings in your configuration file to activate the new broker. Contributing ------------ [](#contributing) We welcome your contributions!
