An Introduction to Asynchronous PHP using ReactPHP
summary
ReactPHP is shown end-to-end: the event loop, streams, promises, sockets and an HTTP server that actually runs on PHP. Examples include powering Laravel WebSockets and the open-source Expose (an Ngrok replacement), a telnet chat and a tiny HTTP counter that works in about 21 lines of PHP. A production deploy runs on a small DigitalOcean droplet; code samples show non-blocking IO, piping, periodic timers, and how to build servers that accept many connections without new threads.
