php-tokio - Use any async Rust library from PHP!
Created by Daniil Gentili (@danog).
This library allows you to use any async rust library from PHP, asynchronously.
It's fully integrated with revolt: this allows full compatibility with amphp, PSL and reactphp.
Example
Here's an example, using the async Rust reqwest library to make asynchronous HTTP requests from PHP:
<?php
use Reqwest\Client;
use function Amp\async;
use function Amp\Future\await;
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
Client::init();
function test(int $delay): void {
$url = "https://httpbin.org/delay/$delay";
$t = time();
echo "Making async reqwest to $url that will return after $delay seconds...".PHP_EOL;
Client::get($url);
$t = time() - $t;
echo "Got response from $url after ~".$t." seconds!".PHP_EOL;
};
$futures = [];
$futures []= async(test(...), 5);
$futures []= async(test(...), 5);
$futures []= async(test(...), 5);
await($futures);
Usage:
cd examples/reqwest && \
cargo build && \
composer update && \
php -d extension=../../target/debug/libexample_reqwest.so test.php
Result:
Making async reqwest to https://httpbin.org/delay/5 that will return after 5 seconds...
Making async reqwest to https://httpbin.org/delay/5 that will return after 5 seconds...
Making async reqwest to https://httpbin.org/delay/5 that will return after 5 seconds...
Got response from https://httpbin.org/delay/5 after ~5 seconds!
Got response from https://httpbin.org/delay/5 after ~5 seconds!
Got response from https://httpbin.org/delay/5 after ~5 seconds!
See the source code of the example for more info on how it works!
