READ MORESending Email Asynchronously With ReactPHP Child Processes
04 May 2018
Introduction In PHP the most of libraries and native functions are blocking and thus they block an event-loop. For example, each time we make a database query with PDO, or check a file with file_exists() our asynchronous application is being...

READ MOREUsing Router With ReactPHP Http Component
13 Mar 2018
Router defines the way your application responds to a client request to a specific endpoint which is defined by URI (or path) and a specific HTTP request method (GET, POST, etc.). With ReactPHP Http component we can create an asynchronous...
READ MOREWorking With FileSystem In ReactPHP
27 Feb 2018
I/O operations in the filesystem are often very slow, compared with CPU calculations. In an asynchronous PHP application this means that every time we access the filesystem even with a simple fopen() call, the event loop is being blocked. All...

15 Feb 2018
Generators Generators become available in PHP since version 5.5.0. The main idea is to provide a simple way to create iterators but without creating a class that implements Iterator interface. A generator function looks like a normal function, except that...

Consider an application that provides some statistics reports. Reports are present in different formats: JSON for API, HTML for viewing in a browser and pdf for printing on the paper. It has StatisticsController that receives a required format from the...
READ MOREIntroduction To Amp Event Loop
19 Jan 2018
Event Loop All asynchronous magic would be impossible without Even loop. It is the core of any asynchronous application. We register events and handlers for them. When an event is fired the event loop triggers an appropriate handler. This allows...
READ MOREManaging ReactPHP Promises
16 Jan 2018
Asynchronous application is always a composition of independently executing things. In concurrency, we are dealing with a lot of different things at once. You can compare it with I\O driver in your OS (mouse, keyboard, display). They all are managed...
