🖥️ Usage

Class \ThingsDB\ThingsDB provide all functionality related to socket connection with ThingsDB. It contains set of method which are based on documentation. Every method has comment (annotation) with required information and link to documentation.

Available methods

Listening

Listening is specific state in which you wait for emitted packages from ThingsDB. You can read more about it in docs. PHP has max_execution_time and it is not allowed to set higher value than this. With max_execution_time=0 you can of course wait indefinitely.

join, emit, leave also emit package towards the one who did it. Therefore, don't be surprised when first package received with calling listening will be ON_JOIN|ON_LEAVE|ON_EMIT event type.

Example

use ThingsDB\ThingsDB;

$thingsDB = new ThingsDB();
$result = $thingsDB->auth(); // returns true on success
$message = $thingsDB->query('@:stuff', '"Hello World!";'); // returns "Hello World!" 

🔒 SSL

To make connection with enabled SSL you can use third parameter of constructor which is context. This context is provided to stream_context_create when creating connection. verify_peer is the bare minimum to enable SSL communication.

use ThingsDB\ThingsDB;
$thingsDB = new ThingsDB('localhost:9200', 15, [
    'socket' => ['tcp_nodelay' => true],
    'ssl' => ['verify_peer' => true]
]);

⏱️ Timeout

Class constructor contains $timeout argument. This timeout is for established socket connection. To set up timeout for establishing socket connection itself you have to set ini directive default_socket_timeout.

Setting up ini directive isn't part of connection class because function ini_set can be disabled on production environments for security reasons.
