PHP Message Bus
===============

[](#php-message-bus)

The library provides an abstraction to publish / consume messages to / from message bus.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require webit/message-bus ^1.0.0
```

Concepts introduction
---------------------

[](#concepts-introduction)

### Message

[](#message)

***Message*** is just simple container to be *published* by ***Publisher*** and *consumed* by ***Consumer***.

```
$message = new Message('message-type', json_encode(['some' => 'data to be sent']));
```

Message **type** is required to recognise what sort of message is sent and helps to understand how it should be handled. Message **content** is a message itself. It can be ***any string*** (not necessarily json).

### Publisher and Consumer

[](#publisher-and-consumer)

***Publisher*** publishes a message (using underlying infrastructure) but ***Consumer*** awaiting the ***Message*** to process it.

Infrastructure is to be provided by a separate package. It should **provide** "webit/message-bus-infrastructure:^1.0.0" Composer Virtual Package.

Tests
-----

[](#tests)

```
./vendor/bin/phpunit
```
