React PHP AWS Lambda

Proof of Concept of Running React PHP in aws lambda server

A proof of concept on how to run React-PHP on a serverless application at AWS Lambda service using Bref.

System Requirements

• AWS Console with configured access keys.
• Serverless Framework
• PHP 7.4.3 or greater

Premise

If Node express can run natively in aws lambda, why not run React-PHP?

Goals

• Execute an Async PSR-7 Request Handler from PSR-11 container
• Execute an Async callable class from PSR-11 container
• Execute an Async Bref\Context\Context\Handler from PSR-11 container
• Execute an Async PSr-7 Request Handler without container
• Execute an Async Bref\Context\Context\Handler without container
• Execute an Async anonymous function from file
• Execute complete async Application like DriftPHP from a unique API Gateway entry-point

Missing Points

• Check Interest in Bref project to add React-php handler
• Learn how to deploy React-PHP-FPM 7.4 layer

Especial thanks

• WyriHaximus, and clue for making React-PHP, adding a complete new paradigm to PHP.
• mnapoli For making Bref, opening a new world of possibilities for PHP on cloud.
• mmoreram For giving us he's perspective.

Workaround

• Use Bref PHP-FPM 7.4 Layer
• We add a custom bootstrap file using a React PHP event loop instead of the "while=true" loop given by default Bref bootstrap.
• The given handler is managed with promises by the ReactHandler class
• We replace the LambdaRuntime class by ReactRuntime

Usage

git clone git@github.com:kpicaza/react-php-lambda.git dev
cd dev
composer install --prefer-dist --optimize-autoloader --no-dev
sls deploy # serverless deploy

Remove stack from AWS

sls remove # serverless remove

Captures

Using Antidot Framework application's container, event dispatcher, and Request handler returning promises.
