Hello @ostap-mykhaylyak,

what exactly isn't working? Do you have a small code example what you are trying?

[ostap-mykhaylyak]

`
use React\HttpClient\Client;
use React\HttpClient\Response;

$loop = React\EventLoop\Factory::create();
$client = new Client($loop);

function make_request($client, $data){
$request = $client->request('POST', '*******************/', array(
'Content-Type' => 'application/json',
'Content-Length' => strlen($data)
));

$request->on('response', function (Response $response) {
// var_dump($response->getHeaders());
$response->on('data', function ($chunk) {
echo $chunk;
});
});

$request->end($data);
}

$data = json_encode($my_some_data_array);
make_request($client, $data);

$loop->run();
`

Now if i make while loop ( while(1){} ) on make_request function, nothing happen.

while(1){
make_request($client, $data);
}

$loop->addPeriodicTimer(5, function () {
    $data = json_encode($my_some_data_array);
    make_request($client, $data);
});

$loop->run();
