SAMPHP - SA:MP Gamemode SDK for PHP

SAMPHP provides an API for developing SA:MP Gamemodes using the popular script language PHP.

Nearly every native function and every callback known from SA:MP are implemented. Most functions have the exact same syntax as their PAWN counterpart. Every function, that uses reference-passing got changed and either returns an associated array containing the information or if it only returns one information, returns it directly.

Examples

PAWN Example

public OnPlayerConnect(playerid)
{
    //Get the name of the player that connected and display a join message to other players
 
    new name[MAX_PLAYER_NAME+1], string[24+MAX_PLAYER_NAME+1];
    GetPlayerName(playerid, name, sizeof(name));
 
    format(string, sizeof(string), "%s has joined the server.", name);
    SendClientMessageToAll(0xC4C4C4FF, string);
 
    return 1;
}

Same code with SAMPHP

function OnPlayerConnect($playerid)
{
    //Get the name of the player that connected and display a join message to other players
    $playername = GetPlayerName($playerid);
 
    SendClientMessageToAll(0xC4C4C4FF, "$playername has joined the server.");
 
    return true;
}

Framework

We also created a very cool framework for SAMPHP, making it even more easier to write short and beautiful code. The code above might look like the following:

Event::on('PlayerConnect', function($player)
{
    SendClientMessageToAll(0xC4C4C4FF, $player->getName()." has joined the server.");
 
    return true;
});

2. Clone the repository.
3. Run ./install_libphp5.sh as root, this will install php headers and libphp5.so
4. Install SAMPGDK (https://github.com/Zeex/sampgdk#linux)
5. run ./build.sh and copy the created samphp file to your plugins folder
