AutoRoute-benchmark VS Ratchet

You may wish to take a look at AutoRoute. I am the lead, and you can see benchmarks for it here.

Interesting; AutoRoute is 2x faster than FastRoute in common cases; see benchmark. And it's pretty feature-filled at that.

Might be nice to see AutoRoute included in the mix; it too is faster than FastRoute, and has some interesting additional features.

As a bonus, it is faster even than FastRoute, though speed at the router level is not a big deal to overall application performance.

Nice! I'd be interested to see how it fares against AutoRoute -- benchmarks against FastRoute here.

1) Do we must need to use some 3rd Party APIs or Libraries like Ratchet, PHP-Push-WebSocket or PHP WebSocket to enable PHP to communicate over WebSocket protocol?

I am using http://socketo.me/ to create the socket server.

Sockets: https://github.com/reactphp/socket WebSocket: https://github.com/ratchetphp/Ratchet

Have you considered using web sockets? Check out Ratchet PHP http://socketo.me/. Once the client and server make a connection your server can send notifications to the client while that connection is open.

How should I implement these functions? I am successful with using this documentation to implement basic websocket functions. However, I am still unable to subscribe to a channel/topic. The code is long so I put a github question here. Hope that you can help me with this.

You can do native websockets with PHP, but it's not straightforward with Laravel. Laravel Echo helps handle the client-side of websockets, but you need to manage the server side on your own.

Nice work. I have something similar I built on Ratchet, I looked at Socket.io in the early days but shelved plans to run a Node backend. Your front end looks a lot more appealing than mine does. ;)

However, the websockets server is based on a php package http://socketo.me/ , and sometimes that mini-app goes down without warning, leaving the chat to fallback to an old-school chat-archive. Even monitoring and being certain that the chat websocket server is -up- isn't obvious.

Hello, I have just start to learn web socket in php but I have one issue I would use a secure web socket for https pages but one their website: https://socketo.me They use a class, MyChat but vscode doesn’t find it. Does anybody know ? Thanks

Which implementation would you like? * http://socketo.me/ * https://amphp.org/websocket-client/ * https://www.swoole.co.uk/docs/modules/swoole-websocket-server
