Client

The client can read and write on a WebSocket stream. It internally supports Upgrade handshake and implicit close and ping/pong operations.

$client = new WebSocket\Client("ws://echo.websocket.org/");
$client->text("Hello WebSocket.org!");
echo $client->receive();
$client->close();

Server

The library contains a rudimentary single stream/single thread server. It internally supports Upgrade handshake and implicit close and ping/pong operations.

Note that it does not support threading or automatic association ot continuous client requests. If you require this kind of server behavior, you need to build it on top of provided server implementation.

$server = new WebSocket\Server();
$server->accept();
$message = $server->receive();
$server->text($message);
$server->close();
