Installing
Install via Composer., (*3)
composer require mpyw/co:^1.5
And require Composer autoloader in your scripts., (*4)
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use mpyw\Co\CURLException;
API
Co::wait()
Wait for all the cURL requests to complete.
The options will override static defaults., (*5)
static Co::wait(mixed $value, array $options = []) : mixed
Arguments
-
(mixed)
__$value__
Any values to be parallelly resolved.
-
(array<string, mixed>)
__$options__
Associative array of options.
Key |
Default |
Description |
throw |
true |
Whether to throw or capture CURLException or RuntimeException on top-level. |
pipeline |
false |
Whether to use HTTP/1.1 pipelining. At most 5 requests for the same destination are bundled into single TCP connection. |
multiplex |
true |
Whether to use HTTP/2 multiplexing. All requests for the same destination are bundled into single TCP connection. |
autoschedule |
false |
Whether to use automatic scheduling by CURLMOPT_MAX_TOTAL_CONNECTIONS . |
interval |
0.002 |
curl_multi_select() timeout seconds. 0 means real-time observation. |
concurrency |
6 |
Limit of concurrent TCP connections. 0 means unlimited. The value should be within 10 at most. |
-
Throwable
which are not extended from RuntimeException
, such as Error
Exception
LogicException
are not captured. If you need to capture them, you have to write your own try-catch blocks in your functions.
- HTTP/1.1 pipelining can be used only if the TCP connection is already established and verified that uses keep-alive session. It means that the first bundle of HTTP/1.1 requests CANNOT be pipelined. You can use it from second
yield
in Co::wait()
call.
- To use HTTP/2 multiplexing, you have to build PHP with libcurl 7.43.0+ and
--with-nghttp2
.
- To use
autoschedule
, PHP 7.0.7 or later is required.
When autoschedule
Disabled:, (*6)
-
curl_multi_add_handle()
call can be delayed.
-
concurrency
controlling with pipeline
/ multiplex
CANNOT be correctly driven. You should set higher concurrency
in those cases.
When autoschedule
Enabled:, (*7)
-
curl_multi_add_handle()
is always immediately called.
-
CURLINFO_TOTAL_TIME
CANNOT be correctly calculated. "Total Time" includes the time waiting for other requests are finished.
The details of CURLIFNO_*_TIME
timing charts are described at the bottom of this page., (*8)
Return Value
(mixed)
Resolved values; in exception-safe context, it may contain..., (*9)
-
CURLException
which has been raised internally.
-
RuntimeException
which has been raised by user.
Exception
- Throws
CURLException
or RuntimeException
in exception-unsafe context.
Co::async()
Execute cURL requests along with Co::wait()
call, without waiting resolved values.
The options are inherited from Co::wait()
., (*10)
This method is mainly expected to be used ..., (*11)
- When you are not interested in responses.
- In
CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION
or CURLOPT_HEADERFUNCTION
callbacks.
static Co::async(mixed $value, mixed $throw = null) : null
Arguments
-
(mixed)
__$value__
Any values to be parallelly resolved.
-
(mixed)
__$throw__
Overrides throw
in Co::wait()
options when you passed true
or false
.
Return Value
(null)
, (*12)
Exception
-
CURLException
or RuntimeException
can be thrown in exception-unsafe context.
Note that you CANNOT capture top-level exceptions unless you catch outside of Co::wait()
call.
Co::isRunning()
Return if Co::wait()
is running().
With this check, you can safely call Co::wait()
or Co::async()
., (*13)
static Co::isRunning() : bool
Co::any()
Co::race()
Co::all()
Return a Generator that resolves with specific value., (*14)
static Co::any(array $value) : \Generator<mixed>
static Co::race(array $value) : \Generator<mixed>
static Co::all(array $value) : \Generator<mixed>
Family |
Return Value |
Exception |
Co::any() |
First Success |
AllFailedException |
Co::race() |
First Success |
First Failure |
-
Jobs CANNOT be canceled.
Incomplete jobs remain even if Co::any()
or Co::race()
is resolved.
-
Co::all(...)
is just a wrapper of (function () { return yield ...; })()
.
It should be only used with Co::race()
or Co::any()
.
Co::wait(function () {
$group1 = Co::all([$ch1, $ch2, $ch3]);
$group2 = Co::all([$ch4, $ch5, $ch6]);
$group1or2 = Co::any([$group1, $group2]);
var_dump(yield $group1or2);
});
Co::setDefaultOptions()
Co::getDefaultOptions()
Overrides/gets static default settings., (*15)
static Co::setDefaultOptions(array $options) : null
static Co::getDefaultOptions() : array
Rules
Conversion on Resolving
The all yielded/returned values are resolved by the following rules.
Yielded values are also resent to the Generator.
The rules will be applied recursively., (*16)
Before |
After |
cURL resource |
curl_multi_getconent() result or CURLException
|
Array |
Array (with resolved children) or RuntimeException
|
Generator Closure Generator |
Return value (after all yields done) or RuntimeException
|
"Generator Closure" means Closure that contains yield
keywords., (*17)
Exception-safe or Exception-unsafe Priority
Context in Generator
Exception-unsafe context by default.
The following yield
statement specifies exception-safe context., (*18)
$results = yield Co::SAFE => [$ch1, $ch2];
This is equivalent to:, (*19)
$results = yield [
function () use ($ch1) {
try {
return yield $ch1;
} catch (\RuntimeException $e) {
return $e;
}
},
function () use ($ch2) {
try {
return yield $ch2;
} catch (\RuntimeException $e) {
return $e;
}
},
];
Context on Co::wait()
Exception-unsafe context by default.
The following setting specifies exception-safe context., (*20)
$result = Co::wait([$ch1, $ch2], ['throw' => false]);
This is equivalent to:, (*21)
$results = Co::wait([
function () use ($ch1) {
try {
return yield $ch1;
} catch (\RuntimeException $e) {
return $e;
}
},
function () use ($ch2) {
try {
return yield $ch2;
} catch (\RuntimeException $e) {
return $e;
}
},
]);
Context on Co::async()
Contexts are inherited from Co::wait()
.
The following setting overrides parent context as exception-safe., (*22)
Co::async($value, false);
The following setting overrides parent context as exception-unsafe., (*23)
Co::async($value, true);
Pseudo-sleep for Each Coroutine
The following yield
statements delay the coroutine processing:, (*24)
yield Co::DELAY => $seconds
yield Co::SLEEP => $seconds # Alias
Comparison with Generators of PHP7.0+ or PHP5.5~5.6
return
Statements
PHP 7.0+:, (*25)
yield $foo;
yield $bar;
return $baz;
PHP 5.5~5.6:, (*26)
yield $foo;
yield $bar;
yield Co::RETURN_WITH => $baz;
Although experimental aliases Co::RETURN_
Co::RET
Co::RTN
are provided,
Co::RETURN_WITH
is recommended in terms of readability., (*27)
yield
Statements with Assignment
PHP 7.0+:, (*28)
$a = yield $foo;
echo yield $bar;
PHP 5.5~5.6:, (*29)
$a = (yield $foo);
echo (yield $bar);
finally
Statements
Be careful that return
triggers finally
while yield Co::RETURN_WITH =>
does not., (*30)
try {
return '...';
} finally {
// Reachable
}
try {
yield Co::RETURN_WITH => '...';
} finally {
// Unreachable
}
