Event-driven readable and writable streams for non-blocking I/O in [ReactPHP](https://reactphp.org/).
|
|
|
|
In order to make the [EventLoop](https://github.com/reactphp/event-loop)
|
|
easier to use, this component introduces the powerful concept of "streams".
|
|
Streams allow you to efficiently process huge amounts of data (such as a multi
|
|
Gigabyte file download) in small chunks without having to store everything in
|
|
memory at once.
|
|
They are very similar to the streams found in PHP itself,
|
|
but have an interface more suited for async, non-blocking I/O.

## Stream usage
|
|
|
|
ReactPHP uses the concept of "streams" throughout its ecosystem to provide a
|
|
consistent higher-level abstraction for processing streams of arbitrary data
|
|
contents and size.
|
|
While a stream itself is a quite low-level concept, it can be used as a powerful
|
|
abstraction to build higher-level components and protocols on top.
|
|
|
|
If you're new to this concept, it helps to think of them as a water pipe:
|
|
You can consume water from a source or you can produce water and forward (pipe)
|
|
it to any destination (sink).
|
|
|
|
Similarly, streams can either be
|
|
|
|
* readable (such as `STDIN` terminal input) or
|
|
* writable (such as `STDOUT` terminal output) or
|
|
* duplex (both readable *and* writable, such as a TCP/IP connection)
|
|
|
|
Accordingly, this package defines the following three interfaces
|
|
|
|
* [`ReadableStreamInterface`](#readablestreaminterface)
|
|
* [`WritableStreamInterface`](#writablestreaminterface)
|
|
* [`DuplexStreamInterface`](#duplexstreaminterface)
|
|
|
|
### ReadableStreamInterface
|
|
|
|
The `ReadableStreamInterface` is responsible for providing an interface for
|
|
read-only streams and the readable side of duplex streams.
|
|
|
|
Besides defining a few methods, this interface also implements the
|
|
`EventEmitterInterface` which allows you to react to certain events.
|
|
|
|
The event callback functions MUST be a valid `callable` that obeys strict
|
|
parameter definitions and MUST accept event parameters exactly as documented.
|
|
The event callback functions MUST NOT throw an `Exception`.
|
|
The return value of the event callback functions will be ignored and has no
|
|
effect, so for performance reasons you're recommended to not return any
|
|
excessive data structures.
|
|
|
|
Every implementation of this interface MUST follow these event semantics in
|
|
order to be considered a well-behaving stream.
|
|
|
|
> Note that higher-level implementations of this interface may choose to
|
|
define additional events with dedicated semantics not defined as part of
|
|
this low-level stream specification. Conformance with these event semantics
|
|
is out of scope for this interface, so you may also have to refer to the
|
|
documentation of such a higher-level implementation.
|
|
|
|
#### data event
|
|
|
|
The `data` event will be emitted whenever some data was read/received
|
|
from this source stream.
|
|
The event receives a single mixed argument for incoming data.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream->on('data', function ($data) {
|
|
echo $data;
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This event MAY be emitted any number of times, which may be zero times if
|
|
this stream does not send any data at all.
|
|
It SHOULD not be emitted after an `end` or `close` event.
|
|
|
|
The given `$data` argument may be of mixed type, but it's usually
|
|
recommended it SHOULD be a `string` value or MAY use a type that allows
|
|
representation as a `string` for maximum compatibility.
|
|
|
|
Many common streams (such as a TCP/IP connection or a file-based stream)
|
|
will emit the raw (binary) payload data that is received over the wire as
|
|
chunks of `string` values.
|
|
|
|
Due to the stream-based nature of this, the sender may send any number
|
|
of chunks with varying sizes. There are no guarantees that these chunks
|
|
will be received with the exact same framing the sender intended to send.
|
|
In other words, many lower-level protocols (such as TCP/IP) transfer the
|
|
data in chunks that may be anywhere between single-byte values to several
|
|
dozens of kilobytes. You may want to apply a higher-level protocol to
|
|
these low-level data chunks in order to achieve proper message framing.
|
|
|
|
#### end event
|
|
|
|
The `end` event will be emitted once the source stream has successfully
|
|
reached the end of the stream (EOF).
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream->on('end', function () {
|
|
echo 'END';
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This event SHOULD be emitted once or never at all, depending on whether
|
|
a successful end was detected.
|
|
It SHOULD NOT be emitted after a previous `end` or `close` event.
|
|
It MUST NOT be emitted if the stream closes due to a non-successful
|
|
end, such as after a previous `error` event.
|
|
|
|
After the stream is ended, it MUST switch to non-readable mode,
|
|
see also `isReadable()`.
|
|
|
|
This event will only be emitted if the *end* was reached successfully,
|
|
not if the stream was interrupted by an unrecoverable error or explicitly
|
|
closed. Not all streams know this concept of a "successful end".
|
|
Many use-cases involve detecting when the stream closes (terminates)
|
|
instead, in this case you should use the `close` event.
|
|
After the stream emits an `end` event, it SHOULD usually be followed by a
|
|
`close` event.
|
|
|
|
Many common streams (such as a TCP/IP connection or a file-based stream)
|
|
will emit this event if either the remote side closes the connection or
|
|
a file handle was successfully read until reaching its end (EOF).
|
|
|
|
Note that this event should not be confused with the `end()` method.
|
|
This event defines a successful end *reading* from a source stream, while
|
|
the `end()` method defines *writing* a successful end to a destination
|
|
stream.
|
|
|
|
#### error event
|
|
|
|
The `error` event will be emitted once a fatal error occurs, usually while
|
|
trying to read from this stream.
|
|
The event receives a single `Exception` argument for the error instance.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$server->on('error', function (Exception $e) {
|
|
echo 'Error: ' . $e->getMessage() . PHP_EOL;
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This event SHOULD be emitted once the stream detects a fatal error, such
|
|
as a fatal transmission error or after an unexpected `data` or premature
|
|
`end` event.
|
|
It SHOULD NOT be emitted after a previous `error`, `end` or `close` event.
|
|
It MUST NOT be emitted if this is not a fatal error condition, such as
|
|
a temporary network issue that did not cause any data to be lost.
|
|
|
|
After the stream errors, it MUST close the stream and SHOULD thus be
|
|
followed by a `close` event and then switch to non-readable mode, see
|
|
also `close()` and `isReadable()`.
|
|
|
|
Many common streams (such as a TCP/IP connection or a file-based stream)
|
|
only deal with data transmission and do not make assumption about data
|
|
boundaries (such as unexpected `data` or premature `end` events).
|
|
In other words, many lower-level protocols (such as TCP/IP) may choose
|
|
to only emit this for a fatal transmission error once and will then
|
|
close (terminate) the stream in response.
|
|
|
|
If this stream is a `DuplexStreamInterface`, you should also notice
|
|
how the writable side of the stream also implements an `error` event.
|
|
In other words, an error may occur while either reading or writing the
|
|
stream which should result in the same error processing.
|
|
|
|
#### close event
|
|
|
|
The `close` event will be emitted once the stream closes (terminates).
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream->on('close', function () {
|
|
echo 'CLOSED';
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This event SHOULD be emitted once or never at all, depending on whether
|
|
the stream ever terminates.
|
|
It SHOULD NOT be emitted after a previous `close` event.
|
|
|
|
After the stream is closed, it MUST switch to non-readable mode,
|
|
see also `isReadable()`.
|
|
|
|
Unlike the `end` event, this event SHOULD be emitted whenever the stream
|
|
closes, irrespective of whether this happens implicitly due to an
|
|
unrecoverable error or explicitly when either side closes the stream.
|
|
If you only want to detect a *successful* end, you should use the `end`
|
|
event instead.
|
|
|
|
Many common streams (such as a TCP/IP connection or a file-based stream)
|
|
will likely choose to emit this event after reading a *successful* `end`
|
|
event or after a fatal transmission `error` event.
|
|
|
|
If this stream is a `DuplexStreamInterface`, you should also notice
|
|
how the writable side of the stream also implements a `close` event.
|
|
In other words, after receiving this event, the stream MUST switch into
|
|
non-writable AND non-readable mode, see also `isWritable()`.
|
|
Note that this event should not be confused with the `end` event.
|
|
|
|
#### isReadable()
|
|
|
|
The `isReadable(): bool` method can be used to
|
|
check whether this stream is in a readable state (not closed already).
|
|
|
|
This method can be used to check if the stream still accepts incoming
|
|
data events or if it is ended or closed already.
|
|
Once the stream is non-readable, no further `data` or `end` events SHOULD
|
|
be emitted.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
assert($stream->isReadable() === false);
|
|
|
|
$stream->on('data', assertNeverCalled());
|
|
$stream->on('end', assertNeverCalled());
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A successfully opened stream always MUST start in readable mode.
|
|
|
|
Once the stream ends or closes, it MUST switch to non-readable mode.
|
|
This can happen any time, explicitly through `close()` or
|
|
implicitly due to a remote close or an unrecoverable transmission error.
|
|
Once a stream has switched to non-readable mode, it MUST NOT transition
|
|
back to readable mode.
|
|
|
|
If this stream is a `DuplexStreamInterface`, you should also notice
|
|
how the writable side of the stream also implements an `isWritable()`
|
|
method. Unless this is a half-open duplex stream, they SHOULD usually
|
|
have the same return value.
|
|
|
|
#### pause()
|
|
|
|
The `pause(): void` method can be used to
|
|
pause reading incoming data events.
|
|
|
|
Removes the data source file descriptor from the event loop. This
|
|
allows you to throttle incoming data.
|
|
|
|
Unless otherwise noted, a successfully opened stream SHOULD NOT start
|
|
in paused state.
|
|
|
|
Once the stream is paused, no futher `data` or `end` events SHOULD
|
|
be emitted.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream->pause();
|
|
|
|
$stream->on('data', assertShouldNeverCalled());
|
|
$stream->on('end', assertShouldNeverCalled());
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This method is advisory-only, though generally not recommended, the
|
|
stream MAY continue emitting `data` events.
|
|
|
|
You can continue processing events by calling `resume()` again.
|
|
|
|
Note that both methods can be called any number of times, in particular
|
|
calling `pause()` more than once SHOULD NOT have any effect.
|
|
|
|
See also `resume()`.
|
|
|
|
#### resume()
|
|
|
|
The `resume(): void` method can be used to
|
|
resume reading incoming data events.
|
|
|
|
Re-attach the data source after a previous `pause()`.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream->pause();
|
|
|
|
Loop::addTimer(1.0, function () use ($stream) {
|
|
$stream->resume();
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that both methods can be called any number of times, in particular
|
|
calling `resume()` without a prior `pause()` SHOULD NOT have any effect.
|
|
|
|
See also `pause()`.
|
|
|
|
#### pipe()
|
|
|
|
The `pipe(WritableStreamInterface $dest, array $options = [])` method can be used to
|
|
pipe all the data from this readable source into the given writable destination.
|
|
|
|
Automatically sends all incoming data to the destination.
|
|
Automatically throttles the source based on what the destination can handle.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$source->pipe($dest);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Similarly, you can also pipe an instance implementing `DuplexStreamInterface`
|
|
into itself in order to write back all the data that is received.
|
|
This may be a useful feature for a TCP/IP echo service:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$connection->pipe($connection);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This method returns the destination stream as-is, which can be used to
|
|
set up chains of piped streams:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$source->pipe($decodeGzip)->pipe($filterBadWords)->pipe($dest);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
By default, this will call `end()` on the destination stream once the
|
|
source stream emits an `end` event. This can be disabled like this:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$source->pipe($dest, array('end' => false));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that this only applies to the `end` event.
|
|
If an `error` or explicit `close` event happens on the source stream,
|
|
you'll have to manually close the destination stream:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$source->pipe($dest);
|
|
$source->on('close', function () use ($dest) {
|
|
$dest->end('BYE!');
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If the source stream is not readable (closed state), then this is a NO-OP.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$source->close();
|
|
$source->pipe($dest); // NO-OP
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If the destinantion stream is not writable (closed state), then this will simply
|
|
throttle (pause) the source stream:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$dest->close();
|
|
$source->pipe($dest); // calls $source->pause()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Similarly, if the destination stream is closed while the pipe is still
|
|
active, it will also throttle (pause) the source stream:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$source->pipe($dest);
|
|
$dest->close(); // calls $source->pause()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once the pipe is set up successfully, the destination stream MUST emit
|
|
a `pipe` event with this source stream an event argument.
|
|
|
|
#### close()
|
|
|
|
The `close(): void` method can be used to
|
|
close the stream (forcefully).
|
|
|
|
This method can be used to (forcefully) close the stream.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream->close();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once the stream is closed, it SHOULD emit a `close` event.
|
|
Note that this event SHOULD NOT be emitted more than once, in particular
|
|
if this method is called multiple times.
|
|
|
|
After calling this method, the stream MUST switch into a non-readable
|
|
mode, see also `isReadable()`.
|
|
This means that no further `data` or `end` events SHOULD be emitted.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream->close();
|
|
assert($stream->isReadable() === false);
|
|
|
|
$stream->on('data', assertNeverCalled());
|
|
$stream->on('end', assertNeverCalled());
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If this stream is a `DuplexStreamInterface`, you should also notice
|
|
how the writable side of the stream also implements a `close()` method.
|
|
In other words, after calling this method, the stream MUST switch into
|
|
non-writable AND non-readable mode, see also `isWritable()`.
|
|
Note that this method should not be confused with the `end()` method.
|
|
|
|
### WritableStreamInterface
|
|
|
|
The `WritableStreamInterface` is responsible for providing an interface for
|
|
write-only streams and the writable side of duplex streams.
|
|
|
|
Besides defining a few methods, this interface also implements the
|
|
`EventEmitterInterface` which allows you to react to certain events.
|
|
|
|
The event callback functions MUST be a valid `callable` that obeys strict
|
|
parameter definitions and MUST accept event parameters exactly as documented.
|
|
The event callback functions MUST NOT throw an `Exception`.
|
|
The return value of the event callback functions will be ignored and has no
|
|
effect, so for performance reasons you're recommended to not return any
|
|
excessive data structures.
|
|
|
|
Every implementation of this interface MUST follow these event semantics in
|
|
order to be considered a well-behaving stream.
|
|
|
|
> Note that higher-level implementations of this interface may choose to
|
|
define additional events with dedicated semantics not defined as part of
|
|
this low-level stream specification. Conformance with these event semantics
|
|
is out of scope for this interface, so you may also have to refer to the
|
|
documentation of such a higher-level implementation.
|
|
|
|
#### drain event
|
|
|
|
The `drain` event will be emitted whenever the write buffer became full
|
|
previously and is now ready to accept more data.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream->on('drain', function () use ($stream) {
|
|
echo 'Stream is now ready to accept more data';
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This event SHOULD be emitted once every time the buffer became full
|
|
previously and is now ready to accept more data.
|
|
In other words, this event MAY be emitted any number of times, which may
|
|
be zero times if the buffer never became full in the first place.
|
|
This event SHOULD NOT be emitted if the buffer has not become full
|
|
previously.
|
|
|
|
This event is mostly used internally, see also `write()` for more details.
|
|
|
|
#### pipe event
|
|
|
|
The `pipe` event will be emitted whenever a readable stream is `pipe()`d
|
|
into this stream.
|
|
The event receives a single `ReadableStreamInterface` argument for the
|
|
source stream.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream->on('pipe', function (ReadableStreamInterface $source) use ($stream) {
|
|
echo 'Now receiving piped data';
|
|
|
|
// explicitly close target if source emits an error
|
|
$source->on('error', function () use ($stream) {
|
|
$stream->close();
|
|
});
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
$source->pipe($stream);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This event MUST be emitted once for each readable stream that is
|
|
successfully piped into this destination stream.
|
|
In other words, this event MAY be emitted any number of times, which may
|
|
be zero times if no stream is ever piped into this stream.
|
|
This event MUST NOT be emitted if either the source is not readable
|
|
(closed already) or this destination is not writable (closed already).
|
|
|
|
This event is mostly used internally, see also `pipe()` for more details.
|
|
|
|
#### error event
|
|
|
|
The `error` event will be emitted once a fatal error occurs, usually while
|
|
trying to write to this stream.
|
|
The event receives a single `Exception` argument for the error instance.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream->on('error', function (Exception $e) {
|
|
echo 'Error: ' . $e->getMessage() . PHP_EOL;
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This event SHOULD be emitted once the stream detects a fatal error, such
|
|
as a fatal transmission error.
|
|
It SHOULD NOT be emitted after a previous `error` or `close` event.
|
|
It MUST NOT be emitted if this is not a fatal error condition, such as
|
|
a temporary network issue that did not cause any data to be lost.
|
|
|
|
After the stream errors, it MUST close the stream and SHOULD thus be
|
|
followed by a `close` event and then switch to non-writable mode, see
|
|
also `close()` and `isWritable()`.
|
|
|
|
Many common streams (such as a TCP/IP connection or a file-based stream)
|
|
only deal with data transmission and may choose
|
|
to only emit this for a fatal transmission error once and will then
|
|
close (terminate) the stream in response.
|
|
|
|
If this stream is a `DuplexStreamInterface`, you should also notice
|
|
how the readable side of the stream also implements an `error` event.
|
|
In other words, an error may occur while either reading or writing the
|
|
stream which should result in the same error processing.
|
|
|
|
#### close event
|
|
|
|
The `close` event will be emitted once the stream closes (terminates).
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream->on('close', function () {
|
|
echo 'CLOSED';
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This event SHOULD be emitted once or never at all, depending on whether
|
|
the stream ever terminates.
|
|
It SHOULD NOT be emitted after a previous `close` event.
|
|
|
|
After the stream is closed, it MUST switch to non-writable mode,
|
|
see also `isWritable()`.
|
|
|
|
This event SHOULD be emitted whenever the stream closes, irrespective of
|
|
whether this happens implicitly due to an unrecoverable error or
|
|
explicitly when either side closes the stream.
|
|
|
|
Many common streams (such as a TCP/IP connection or a file-based stream)
|
|
will likely choose to emit this event after flushing the buffer from
|
|
the `end()` method, after receiving a *successful* `end` event or after
|
|
a fatal transmission `error` event.
|
|
|
|
If this stream is a `DuplexStreamInterface`, you should also notice
|
|
how the readable side of the stream also implements a `close` event.
|
|
In other words, after receiving this event, the stream MUST switch into
|
|
non-writable AND non-readable mode, see also `isReadable()`.
|
|
Note that this event should not be confused with the `end` event.
|
|
|
|
#### isWritable()
|
|
|
|
The `isWritable(): bool` method can be used to
|
|
check whether this stream is in a writable state (not closed already).
|
|
|
|
This method can be used to check if the stream still accepts writing
|
|
any data or if it is ended or closed already.
|
|
Writing any data to a non-writable stream is a NO-OP:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
assert($stream->isWritable() === false);
|
|
|
|
$stream->write('end'); // NO-OP
|
|
$stream->end('end'); // NO-OP
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A successfully opened stream always MUST start in writable mode.
|
|
|
|
Once the stream ends or closes, it MUST switch to non-writable mode.
|
|
This can happen any time, explicitly through `end()` or `close()` or
|
|
implicitly due to a remote close or an unrecoverable transmission error.
|
|
Once a stream has switched to non-writable mode, it MUST NOT transition
|
|
back to writable mode.
|
|
|
|
If this stream is a `DuplexStreamInterface`, you should also notice
|
|
how the readable side of the stream also implements an `isReadable()`
|
|
method. Unless this is a half-open duplex stream, they SHOULD usually
|
|
have the same return value.
|
|
|
|
#### write()
|
|
|
|
The `write(mixed $data): bool` method can be used to
|
|
write some data into the stream.
|
|
|
|
A successful write MUST be confirmed with a boolean `true`, which means
|
|
that either the data was written (flushed) immediately or is buffered and
|
|
scheduled for a future write. Note that this interface gives you no
|
|
control over explicitly flushing the buffered data, as finding the
|
|
appropriate time for this is beyond the scope of this interface and left
|
|
up to the implementation of this interface.
|
|
|
|
Many common streams (such as a TCP/IP connection or file-based stream)
|
|
may choose to buffer all given data and schedule a future flush by using
|
|
an underlying EventLoop to check when the resource is actually writable.
|
|
|
|
If a stream cannot handle writing (or flushing) the data, it SHOULD emit
|
|
an `error` event and MAY `close()` the stream if it can not recover from
|
|
this error.
|
|
|
|
If the internal buffer is full after adding `$data`, then `write()`
|
|
SHOULD return `false`, indicating that the caller should stop sending
|
|
data until the buffer drains.
|
|
The stream SHOULD send a `drain` event once the buffer is ready to accept
|
|
more data.
|
|
|
|
Similarly, if the stream is not writable (already in a closed state)
|
|
it MUST NOT process the given `$data` and SHOULD return `false`,
|
|
indicating that the caller should stop sending data.
|
|
|
|
The given `$data` argument MAY be of mixed type, but it's usually
|
|
recommended it SHOULD be a `string` value or MAY use a type that allows
|
|
representation as a `string` for maximum compatibility.
|
|
|
|
Many common streams (such as a TCP/IP connection or a file-based stream)
|
|
will only accept the raw (binary) payload data that is transferred over
|
|
the wire as chunks of `string` values.
|
|
|
|
Due to the stream-based nature of this, the sender may send any number
|
|
of chunks with varying sizes. There are no guarantees that these chunks
|
|
will be received with the exact same framing the sender intended to send.
|
|
In other words, many lower-level protocols (such as TCP/IP) transfer the
|
|
data in chunks that may be anywhere between single-byte values to several
|
|
dozens of kilobytes. You may want to apply a higher-level protocol to
|
|
these low-level data chunks in order to achieve proper message framing.
|
|
|
|
#### end()
|
|
|
|
The `end(mixed $data = null): void` method can be used to
|
|
successfully end the stream (after optionally sending some final data).
|
|
|
|
This method can be used to successfully end the stream, i.e. close
|
|
the stream after sending out all data that is currently buffered.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream->write('hello');
|
|
$stream->write('world');
|
|
$stream->end();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If there's no data currently buffered and nothing to be flushed, then
|
|
this method MAY `close()` the stream immediately.
|
|
|
|
If there's still data in the buffer that needs to be flushed first, then
|
|
this method SHOULD try to write out this data and only then `close()`
|
|
the stream.
|
|
Once the stream is closed, it SHOULD emit a `close` event.
|
|
|
|
Note that this interface gives you no control over explicitly flushing
|
|
the buffered data, as finding the appropriate time for this is beyond the
|
|
scope of this interface and left up to the implementation of this
|
|
interface.
|
|
|
|
Many common streams (such as a TCP/IP connection or file-based stream)
|
|
may choose to buffer all given data and schedule a future flush by using
|
|
an underlying EventLoop to check when the resource is actually writable.
|
|
|
|
You can optionally pass some final data that is written to the stream
|
|
before ending the stream. If a non-`null` value is given as `$data`, then
|
|
this method will behave just like calling `write($data)` before ending
|
|
with no data.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
// shorter version
|
|
$stream->end('bye');
|
|
|
|
// same as longer version
|
|
$stream->write('bye');
|
|
$stream->end();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After calling this method, the stream MUST switch into a non-writable
|
|
mode, see also `isWritable()`.
|
|
This means that no further writes are possible, so any additional
|
|
`write()` or `end()` calls have no effect.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream->end();
|
|
assert($stream->isWritable() === false);
|
|
|
|
$stream->write('nope'); // NO-OP
|
|
$stream->end(); // NO-OP
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If this stream is a `DuplexStreamInterface`, calling this method SHOULD
|
|
also end its readable side, unless the stream supports half-open mode.
|
|
In other words, after calling this method, these streams SHOULD switch
|
|
into non-writable AND non-readable mode, see also `isReadable()`.
|
|
This implies that in this case, the stream SHOULD NOT emit any `data`
|
|
or `end` events anymore.
|
|
Streams MAY choose to use the `pause()` method logic for this, but
|
|
special care may have to be taken to ensure a following call to the
|
|
`resume()` method SHOULD NOT continue emitting readable events.
|
|
|
|
Note that this method should not be confused with the `close()` method.
|
|
|
|
#### close()
|
|
|
|
The `close(): void` method can be used to
|
|
close the stream (forcefully).
|
|
|
|
This method can be used to forcefully close the stream, i.e. close
|
|
the stream without waiting for any buffered data to be flushed.
|
|
If there's still data in the buffer, this data SHOULD be discarded.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream->close();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once the stream is closed, it SHOULD emit a `close` event.
|
|
Note that this event SHOULD NOT be emitted more than once, in particular
|
|
if this method is called multiple times.
|
|
|
|
After calling this method, the stream MUST switch into a non-writable
|
|
mode, see also `isWritable()`.
|
|
This means that no further writes are possible, so any additional
|
|
`write()` or `end()` calls have no effect.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream->close();
|
|
assert($stream->isWritable() === false);
|
|
|
|
$stream->write('nope'); // NO-OP
|
|
$stream->end(); // NO-OP
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that this method should not be confused with the `end()` method.
|
|
Unlike the `end()` method, this method does not take care of any existing
|
|
buffers and simply discards any buffer contents.
|
|
Likewise, this method may also be called after calling `end()` on a
|
|
stream in order to stop waiting for the stream to flush its final data.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream->end();
|
|
Loop::addTimer(1.0, function () use ($stream) {
|
|
$stream->close();
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If this stream is a `DuplexStreamInterface`, you should also notice
|
|
how the readable side of the stream also implements a `close()` method.
|
|
In other words, after calling this method, the stream MUST switch into
|
|
non-writable AND non-readable mode, see also `isReadable()`.
|
|
|
|
### DuplexStreamInterface
|
|
|
|
The `DuplexStreamInterface` is responsible for providing an interface for
|
|
duplex streams (both readable and writable).
|
|
|
|
It builds on top of the existing interfaces for readable and writable streams
|
|
and follows the exact same method and event semantics.
|
|
If you're new to this concept, you should look into the
|
|
`ReadableStreamInterface` and `WritableStreamInterface` first.
|
|
|
|
Besides defining a few methods, this interface also implements the
|
|
`EventEmitterInterface` which allows you to react to the same events defined
|
|
on the `ReadbleStreamInterface` and `WritableStreamInterface`.
|
|
|
|
The event callback functions MUST be a valid `callable` that obeys strict
|
|
parameter definitions and MUST accept event parameters exactly as documented.
|
|
The event callback functions MUST NOT throw an `Exception`.
|
|
The return value of the event callback functions will be ignored and has no
|
|
effect, so for performance reasons you're recommended to not return any
|
|
excessive data structures.
|
|
|
|
Every implementation of this interface MUST follow these event semantics in
|
|
order to be considered a well-behaving stream.
|
|
|
|
> Note that higher-level implementations of this interface may choose to
|
|
define additional events with dedicated semantics not defined as part of
|
|
this low-level stream specification. Conformance with these event semantics
|
|
is out of scope for this interface, so you may also have to refer to the
|
|
documentation of such a higher-level implementation.
|
|
|
|
See also [`ReadableStreamInterface`](#readablestreaminterface) and
|
|
[`WritableStreamInterface`](#writablestreaminterface) for more details.
|
|
|
|
## Creating streams
|
|
|
|
ReactPHP uses the concept of "streams" throughout its ecosystem, so that
|
|
many higher-level consumers of this package only deal with
|
|
[stream usage](#stream-usage).
|
|
This implies that stream instances are most often created within some
|
|
higher-level components and many consumers never actually have to deal with
|
|
creating a stream instance.
|
|
|
|
* Use [react/socket](https://github.com/reactphp/socket)
|
|
if you want to accept incoming or establish outgoing plaintext TCP/IP or
|
|
secure TLS socket connection streams.
|
|
* Use [react/http](https://github.com/reactphp/http)
|
|
if you want to receive an incoming HTTP request body streams.
|
|
* Use [react/child-process](https://github.com/reactphp/child-process)
|
|
if you want to communicate with child processes via process pipes such as
|
|
STDIN, STDOUT, STDERR etc.
|
|
* Use experimental [react/filesystem](https://github.com/reactphp/filesystem)
|
|
if you want to read from / write to the filesystem.
|
|
* See also the last chapter for [more real-world applications](#more).
|
|
|
|
However, if you are writing a lower-level component or want to create a stream
|
|
instance from a stream resource, then the following chapter is for you.
|
|
|
|
> Note that the following examples use `fopen()` and `stream_socket_client()`
|
|
for illustration purposes only.
|
|
These functions SHOULD NOT be used in a truly async program because each call
|
|
may take several seconds to complete and would block the EventLoop otherwise.
|
|
Additionally, the `fopen()` call will return a file handle on some platforms
|
|
which may or may not be supported by all EventLoop implementations.
|
|
As an alternative, you may want to use higher-level libraries listed above.
|
|
|
|
### ReadableResourceStream
|
|
|
|
The `ReadableResourceStream` is a concrete implementation of the
|
|
[`ReadableStreamInterface`](#readablestreaminterface) for PHP's stream resources.
|
|
|
|
This can be used to represent a read-only resource like a file stream opened in
|
|
readable mode or a stream such as `STDIN`:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream = new ReadableResourceStream(STDIN);
|
|
$stream->on('data', function ($chunk) {
|
|
echo $chunk;
|
|
});
|
|
$stream->on('end', function () {
|
|
echo 'END';
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See also [`ReadableStreamInterface`](#readablestreaminterface) for more details.
|
|
|
|
The first parameter given to the constructor MUST be a valid stream resource
|
|
that is opened in reading mode (e.g. `fopen()` mode `r`).
|
|
Otherwise, it will throw an `InvalidArgumentException`:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
// throws InvalidArgumentException
|
|
$stream = new ReadableResourceStream(false);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See also the [`DuplexResourceStream`](#readableresourcestream) for read-and-write
|
|
stream resources otherwise.
|
|
|
|
Internally, this class tries to enable non-blocking mode on the stream resource
|
|
which may not be supported for all stream resources.
|
|
Most notably, this is not supported by pipes on Windows (STDIN etc.).
|
|
If this fails, it will throw a `RuntimeException`:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
// throws RuntimeException on Windows
|
|
$stream = new ReadableResourceStream(STDIN);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once the constructor is called with a valid stream resource, this class will
|
|
take care of the underlying stream resource.
|
|
You SHOULD only use its public API and SHOULD NOT interfere with the underlying
|
|
stream resource manually.
|
|
|
|
This class takes an optional `LoopInterface|null $loop` parameter that can be used to
|
|
pass the event loop instance to use for this object. You can use a `null` value
|
|
here in order to use the [default loop](https://github.com/reactphp/event-loop#loop).
|
|
This value SHOULD NOT be given unless you're sure you want to explicitly use a
|
|
given event loop instance.
|
|
|
|
This class takes an optional `int|null $readChunkSize` parameter that controls
|
|
the maximum buffer size in bytes to read at once from the stream.
|
|
You can use a `null` value here in order to apply its default value.
|
|
This value SHOULD NOT be changed unless you know what you're doing.
|
|
This can be a positive number which means that up to X bytes will be read
|
|
at once from the underlying stream resource. Note that the actual number
|
|
of bytes read may be lower if the stream resource has less than X bytes
|
|
currently available.
|
|
This can be `-1` which means "read everything available" from the
|
|
underlying stream resource.
|
|
This should read until the stream resource is not readable anymore
|
|
(i.e. underlying buffer drained), note that this does not neccessarily
|
|
mean it reached EOF.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream = new ReadableResourceStream(STDIN, null, 8192);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> PHP bug warning: If the PHP process has explicitly been started without a
|
|
`STDIN` stream, then trying to read from `STDIN` may return data from
|
|
another stream resource. This does not happen if you start this with an empty
|
|
stream like `php test.php < /dev/null` instead of `php test.php <&-`.
|
|
See [#81](https://github.com/reactphp/stream/issues/81) for more details.
|
|
|
|
> Changelog: As of v1.2.0 the `$loop` parameter can be omitted (or skipped with a
|
|
`null` value) to use the [default loop](https://github.com/reactphp/event-loop#loop).
|
|
|
|
### WritableResourceStream
|
|
|
|
The `WritableResourceStream` is a concrete implementation of the
|
|
[`WritableStreamInterface`](#writablestreaminterface) for PHP's stream resources.
|
|
|
|
This can be used to represent a write-only resource like a file stream opened in
|
|
writable mode or a stream such as `STDOUT` or `STDERR`:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream = new WritableResourceStream(STDOUT);
|
|
$stream->write('hello!');
|
|
$stream->end();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See also [`WritableStreamInterface`](#writablestreaminterface) for more details.
|
|
|
|
The first parameter given to the constructor MUST be a valid stream resource
|
|
that is opened for writing.
|
|
Otherwise, it will throw an `InvalidArgumentException`:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
// throws InvalidArgumentException
|
|
$stream = new WritableResourceStream(false);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
which may not be supported for all stream resources.
|
|

|
|
If this fails, it will throw a `RuntimeException`:
|
|

$stream = new WritableResourceStream(STDOUT);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once the constructor is called with a valid stream resource, this class will
|
|
take care of the underlying stream resource.
|
|
You SHOULD only use its public API and SHOULD NOT interfere with the underlying
|
|
stream resource manually.
|
|
|
|
Any `write()` calls to this class will not be performed instantly, but will
|
|
be performed asynchronously, once the EventLoop reports the stream resource is
|
|
ready to accept data.
|
|
For this, it uses an in-memory buffer string to collect all outstanding writes.
|
|
This buffer has a soft-limit applied which defines how much data it is willing
|
|
to accept before the caller SHOULD stop sending further data.
|
|
|
|
This class takes an optional `LoopInterface|null $loop` parameter that can be used to
|
|
pass the event loop instance to use for this object. You can use a `null` value
|
|
here in order to use the [default loop](https://github.com/reactphp/event-loop#loop).
|
|
This value SHOULD NOT be given unless you're sure you want to explicitly use a
|
|
given event loop instance.
|
|
|
|
This class takes an optional `int|null $writeBufferSoftLimit` parameter that controls
|
|
this maximum buffer size in bytes.
|
|
You can use a `null` value here in order to apply its default value.
|
|
This value SHOULD NOT be changed unless you know what you're doing.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream = new WritableResourceStream(STDOUT, null, 8192);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This class takes an optional `int|null $writeChunkSize` parameter that controls
|
|
this maximum buffer size in bytes to write at once to the stream.
|
|
You can use a `null` value here in order to apply its default value.
|
|
This value SHOULD NOT be changed unless you know what you're doing.
|
|
This can be a positive number which means that up to X bytes will be written
|
|
at once to the underlying stream resource. Note that the actual number
|
|
of bytes written may be lower if the stream resource has less than X bytes
|
|
currently available.
|
|
This can be `-1` which means "write everything available" to the
|
|
underlying stream resource.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stream = new WritableResourceStream(STDOUT, null, null, 8192);
|
|
```

|
|
### DuplexResourceStream
|
|
|
|
The `DuplexResourceStream` is a concrete implementation of the
|
|
[`DuplexStreamInterface`](#duplexstreaminterface) for PHP's stream resources.
|
|
|
|
This can be used to represent a read-and-write resource like a file stream opened
|
|
in read and write mode mode or a stream such as a TCP/IP connection:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$conn = stream_socket_client('tcp://google.com:80');
|
|
$stream = new DuplexResourceStream($conn);
|
|
$stream->write('hello!');
|
|
$stream->end();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See also [`DuplexStreamInterface`](#duplexstreaminterface) for more details.
|
|
|
|
The first parameter given to the constructor MUST be a valid stream resource
|
|
that is opened for reading *and* writing.
|
|
Otherwise, it will throw an `InvalidArgumentException`:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
// throws InvalidArgumentException
|
|
$stream = new DuplexResourceStream(false);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
given event loop instance.
|
|
|
|
This class takes an optional `int|null $readChunkSize` parameter that controls
|
|
the maximum buffer size in bytes to read at once from the stream.
|
|
You can use a `null` value here in order to apply its default value.
|
|
This value SHOULD NOT be changed unless you know what you're doing.
|
|
This can be a positive number which means that up to X bytes will be read
|
|
at once from the underlying stream resource. Note that the actual number
|
|
of bytes read may be lower if the stream resource has less than X bytes
|
|
currently available.
|
|
This can be `-1` which means "read everything available" from the
|
|
underlying stream resource.
|
|
This should read until the stream resource is not readable anymore
|
|
(i.e. underlying buffer drained), note that this does not neccessarily
|
|
mean it reached EOF.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$conn = stream_socket_client('tcp://google.com:80');
|
|
$stream = new DuplexResourceStream($conn, null, 8192);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Any `write()` calls to this class will not be performed instantly, but will
|
|
be performed asynchronously, once the EventLoop reports the stream resource is
|
|
ready to accept data.
|
|
For this, it uses an in-memory buffer string to collect all outstanding writes.
|
|
This buffer has a soft-limit applied which defines how much data it is willing
|
|
to accept before the caller SHOULD stop sending further data.
|
|
|
|
This class takes another optional `WritableStreamInterface|null $buffer` parameter
|
|
that controls this write behavior of this stream.
|
|
You can use a `null` value here in order to apply its default value.
|
|
This value SHOULD NOT be changed unless you know what you're doing.
|
|
|
|
If you want to change the write buffer soft limit, you can pass an instance of
|
|
[`WritableResourceStream`](#writableresourcestream) like this:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$conn = stream_socket_client('tcp://google.com:80');
|
|
$buffer = new WritableResourceStream($conn, null, 8192);
|
|
$stream = new DuplexResourceStream($conn, null, null, $buffer);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See also [`WritableResourceStream`](#writableresourcestream) for more details.
|
|
|
|
> Changelog: As of v1.2.0 the `$loop` parameter can be omitted (or skipped with a
|
|
`null` value) to use the [default loop](https://github.com/reactphp/event-loop#loop).
|
|
|
|
### ThroughStream
|
|
|
|
The `ThroughStream` implements the
|
|
[`DuplexStreamInterface`](#duplexstreaminterface) and will simply pass any data
|
|
you write to it through to its readable end.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$through = new ThroughStream();
|
|
$through->on('data', $this->expectCallableOnceWith('hello'));
|
|
|
|
$through->write('hello');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Similarly, the [`end()` method](#end) will end the stream and emit an
|
|
[`end` event](#end-event) and then [`close()`](#close-1) the stream.
|
|
The [`close()` method](#close-1) will close the stream and emit a
|
|
[`close` event](#close-event).
|
|
Accordingly, this is can also be used in a [`pipe()`](#pipe) context like this:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$through = new ThroughStream();
|
|
$source->pipe($through)->pipe($dest);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Optionally, its constructor accepts any callable function which will then be
|
|
used to *filter* any data written to it. This function receives a single data
|
|
argument as passed to the writable side and must return the data as it will be
|
|
passed to its readable end:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$through = new ThroughStream('strtoupper');
|
|
$source->pipe($through)->pipe($dest);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that this class makes no assumptions about any data types. This can be
|
|
used to convert data, for example for transforming any structured data into
|
|
a newline-delimited JSON (NDJSON) stream like this:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$through = new ThroughStream(function ($data) {
|
|
return json_encode($data) . PHP_EOL;
|
|
});
|
|
$through->on('data', $this->expectCallableOnceWith("[2, true]\n"));
|
|
|
|
$through->write(array(2, true));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The callback function is allowed to throw an `Exception`. In this case,
|
|
the stream will emit an `error` event and then [`close()`](#close-1) the stream.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$through = new ThroughStream(function ($data) {
|
|
if (!is_string($data)) {
|
|
throw new \UnexpectedValueException('Only strings allowed');
|
|
}
|
|
return $data;
|
|
});
|
|
$through->on('error', $this->expectCallableOnce()));
|
|
$through->on('close', $this->expectCallableOnce()));
|
|
$through->on('data', $this->expectCallableNever()));
|
|
|
|
$through->write(2);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### CompositeStream
|
|
|
|
The `CompositeStream` implements the
|
|
[`DuplexStreamInterface`](#duplexstreaminterface) and can be used to create a
|
|
single duplex stream from two individual streams implementing
|
|
[`ReadableStreamInterface`](#readablestreaminterface) and
|
|
[`WritableStreamInterface`](#writablestreaminterface) respectively.
|
|
|
|
This is useful for some APIs which may require a single
|
|
[`DuplexStreamInterface`](#duplexstreaminterface) or simply because it's often
|
|
more convenient to work with a single stream instance like this:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$stdin = new ReadableResourceStream(STDIN);
|
|
$stdout = new WritableResourceStream(STDOUT);
|
|
|
|
$stdio = new CompositeStream($stdin, $stdout);
|
|
|
|
$stdio->on('data', function ($chunk) use ($stdio) {
|
|
$stdio->write('You said: ' . $chunk);
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This is a well-behaving stream which forwards all stream events from the
|
|
underlying streams and forwards all streams calls to the underlying streams.
|
|
|
|
If you `write()` to the duplex stream, it will simply `write()` to the
|
|
writable side and return its status.
|
|
|
|
If you `end()` the duplex stream, it will `end()` the writable side and will
|
|
`pause()` the readable side.
|
|
|
|
If you `close()` the duplex stream, both input streams will be closed.
|
|
If either of the two input streams emits a `close` event, the duplex stream
|
|
will also close.
|
|
If either of the two input streams is already closed while constructing the
|
|
duplex stream, it will `close()` the other side and return a closed stream.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
The following example can be used to pipe the contents of a source file into
|
|
a destination file without having to ever read the whole file into memory:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$source = new React\Stream\ReadableResourceStream(fopen('source.txt', 'r'));
|
|
$dest = new React\Stream\WritableResourceStream(fopen('destination.txt', 'w'));
|
|
|
|
$source->pipe($dest);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> Note that this example uses `fopen()` for illustration purposes only.
|
|
This should not be used in a truly async program because the filesystem is
|
|
inherently blocking and each call could potentially take several seconds.
|
|

|
|
examples.
