JSON-RPC done right

client and server for PHP 5.3+

Do JSON-RPC. With Tivoka. It's as easy as that!
For convenience, you can easily switch between JSON-RPC 1.0 and JSON-RPC 2.0 without having to change your code.

Learn more about JSON-RPC at http://jsonrpc.org/.

Examples

These are just some quick examples.

Do a request through HTTP...

<?php
$connection = Tivoka\Client::connect('http://exapmle.com/api')
$request = $connection->sendRequest('substract', array(51, 9));
print $request->result;// 42
?>

...or plain TCP

<?php
$connection = Tivoka\Client::connect(array('host' => 'example.com', 'port' => 1234))
$request = $connection->sendRequest('substract', array(51, 9));
print $request->result;// 42
?>

Create a server

<?php
$methods = array(
    'substract' => function($params) {
        list($num1, $num2) = $params
        return $num1 - $num2;
    }
);
Tivoka\Server::provide($methods)->dispatch();
?>
