Workerman is a framework for building multi-process servers in PHP. It allows you to build a Webserver or another kind of server - maybe for an API. Hprose is both, a protocol and RPC engine. It is modern, lightweight and amazingly fast. It's own serialization format supports objects, binary data and even more!
Hprose is a High Performance Remote Object Service Engine.
It is a modern, lightweight, cross-language, cross-platform, object-oriented, high performance, remote dynamic communication middleware. It is not only easy to use, but powerful. You just need a little time to learn, then you can use it to easily construct cross language cross platform distributed application system.
Hprose supports many programming languages, for example:
- AAuto Quicker
- ActionScript
- ASP
- C++
- Dart
- Delphi/Free Pascal
- dotNET(C#, Visual Basic...)
- Golang
- Java
- JavaScript
- Node.js
- Objective-C
- Perl
- PHP
- Python
- Ruby
- ...
Through Hprose, You can conveniently and efficiently intercommunicate between those programming languages.
In order to use Hprose with a Workerman setup, you will need to have Composer. With it, the required dependencies are installed.
<?php
# Standalone
require_once "Workerman/Autoloader.php";
require_once "Hprose.php"; # If you run the native PECL extension, you won't need this.
# Using composer
require_once "vendor/autoload.php";
// Create the worker
$host = "127.0.0.1";
$port = 9999;
$worker = new \Workerman\Hprose($host, $port);
// Set options
$worker->count = 4;
$worker->reloadable = true;
// Add a function
function hello($w) { return "Hello, $w!"; }
$hprose = $worker->hprose();
$hprose->addFunction("hello");
// Start the Workerman framework, run the worker(s)...
\Workerman\Worker::runAll();You now have a Workerman instance with 4 workers listening on your local port 9999. This server balances requests upon processes and lets you scale your application.
hprose-php and hprose-pecl do not currently have methods to interact with a TCP server. You will need to use NodeJS or another supported language to talk to this server instance.
For further information, please consult the hprose-php and/or hprose-pecl repositories.
