Swoole\WebSocket\Server::__construct()

4.x is outdated, please check the latest version 22.x


Latest version: pecl install openswoole-22.1.2

Declaration

<?php Swoole\WebSocket\Server::__construct(string $host, int $port)

Parameters

host

The IP address of the server to listen on

port

The port of the server (root privilege required if the port number is less than 1024)

Return

server

A Swoole\WebSocket\Server object if successful

Description

Create a new WebSocket server. Provide the IP and port you want the server to listen on and Swoole will create a Swoole\WebSocket\Server object for you in return.

The Swoole\WebSocket\Server is a sub-class of Swoole\Server and inherits some features form Swoole\Http\Server as well.

You can use the methods from the Swoole\Server within a WebSocket Server.

Considerations

  • With a WebSocket server you should use $Swoole\WebSocket\server->push(...) to send WebSocket data, the Swoole\Server->send(...) method is used for traditional TCP data transmission.

Example

<?php

use Swoole\WebSocket\Server;
use Swoole\Http\Request;
use Swoole\WebSocket\Frame;

$server = new Server("127.0.0.1", 9501);

$server->on("Start", function(Server $server)
{
    echo "Swoole WebSocket Server started at 127.0.0.1:9501\n";
});

$server->on('Open', function(Server $server, Swoole\Http\Request $request)
{
    echo "connection open: {$request->fd}\n";

    $server->tick(1000, function() use ($server, $request)
    {
        $server->push($request->fd, json_encode(["hello", time()]));
    });
});

$server->on('Message', function(Server $server, Frame $frame)
{
    echo "received message: {$frame->data}\n";

    $server->push($frame->fd, json_encode(["hello", time()]));
});

$server->on('Close', function(Server $server, int $fd)
{
    echo "connection close: {$fd}\n";
});

$server->start();
