Automatically close connection after xxx seconds if no data is sent?

[lbngoc]

How can I do it with React\Socket\Server ?

The loop has timer methods you can use to set timeouts: https://github.com/reactphp/event-loop#usage and https://blog.wyrihaximus.net/2015/01/reactphp-timers/

I tried with this code:

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

$socket = new React\Socket\Server($loop);
$socket->on('connection', function ($conn) {

    $timer = React\EventLoop\Factory::create();
    $timer->addTimer(10, function() use ($conn) {
        echo 'Timer done', PHP_EOL;
        $conn->end();
    });
    $timer->run();

    $conn->on('data', function ($data) use ($conn) {
        ...
    });
});

but then I faced issue #37 :(

Try this:

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

$socket = new React\Socket\Server($loop);
$socket->on('connection', function ($conn) use ($loop) {
    $func = function () use ($conn) {$conn->close();};
    $timer = $loop->addTimer(1, $func);
    $conn->on('data', function ($data) use ($loop, &$timer, $func) {
       $timer->cancel();
       $timer = $loop->addTimer(1, $func);
    });
});
