Academic research package comparing async/concurrent patterns in PHP 8.2+: **Fibers**, **Amphp**, **ReactPHP**, with comprehensive benchmarks and analysis.

🎯 Purpose
---------

[](#-purpose)

Research and practical comparison of modern asynchronous programming patterns in PHP:

- **PHP 8.2+ Fibers** - Native cooperative multitasking
- **Amphp v3** - Event loop and coroutines
- **ReactPHP** - Event-driven async I/O

🚀 Features
----------

[](#-features)

✅ **PHP 8.2+ Fibers**: FiberScheduler, FiberPool for concurrent execution
✅ **Amphp v3**: HTTP client, async coroutines
✅ **ReactPHP**: Event loop, promise-based async
✅ **Performance Benchmarks**: Empirical throughput and latency comparisons
✅ **Research Documentation**: Academic analysis with data
✅ **Comprehensive Tests**: PHPUnit with 90%+ coverage
✅ **Quality Assurance**: PHPStan Level 9, Psalm

📦 Installation
--------------

[](#-installation)

```
composer require syeedalireza/async-patterns-lab --dev
```

🔧 Quick Start
-------------

[](#-quick-start)

### Using PHP Fibers

[](#using-php-fibers)

```
use AsyncPatternsLab\Fibers\FiberScheduler;

$scheduler = new FiberScheduler();

$scheduler->schedule(fn() => fetchData('url1'), 'task1');
$scheduler->schedule(fn() => fetchData('url2'), 'task2');

$results = $scheduler->run();
// ['task1' => 'data1', 'task2' => 'data2']
```

### Using Fiber Pool

[](#using-fiber-pool)

```
use AsyncPatternsLab\Fibers\FiberPool;

$pool = new FiberPool(maxConcurrency: 10);

$results = $pool->map([
    fn() => processTask1(),
    fn() => processTask2(),
    fn() => processTask3(),
]);
```

###  Alternatives

[bertptrs/phpstreams

A streams library for PHP based on the Java 8 Streams API.

883.2k](/packages/bertptrs-phpstreams)[cheprasov/php-parallel

The class allows you to run multiple operations parallel in different processes and send results to the main process. Useful if you need to run multiple independent operations simultaneously, instead of sequential execution, or if you run several independent queries, for example, queries to different data bases
