How do I use the client?

After you instantiate the JsonRpcClient with the server URL, there have two option to send a request. Both method using the RpcRequest class @ lib/client/ which help us to sending a well formatted request. Step by step tuturial soon.

Single request

Sending a request

So, triggering a single request after $client = new JsonRpcClient('http://serverurl'); you can use one of the following methods:

__call() magic method(recommended)

Parameters sequence must represent the same as server implementation and notification not allowed

$response = $client->add($a,$b);

Is equal with

$response = $client->{'add'}($a,$b);

RpcRequest

1) Sorted parameters

RIGHT

$response = $client->call(new RpcRequest('sanitize',array(array(1,2,3))));
$response = $client->call(new RpcRequest('deleteById',array(3)));

WRONG

$response = $client->call(new RpcRequest('sanitize',array(1,2,3)));
$response = $client->call(new RpcRequest('deleteById',3));

2) Named parameters Sequence is not necessary, the server will sorting params if these exits case sensitive

$response = $client->call(new RpcRequest('add',array('bValue'=>$b,'aValue'=>$a)));

3) Notification

$response = $client->call(new RpcRequest('deleteAndUpdtae',array(2),true));
$response = $client->call(new RpcRequest('update',null,true));

Working with the response

Please note that the client side deliberately less implemented, so you can freely manage the response, for example, wrapping the reponse object in JsonRpcClient and when you got an unexpected answer, throw an exception etc.

If the request is not a notification, and the process was successful, the $response will be an object which contain id,jsonrpc and result fields, otherwise the result object will contain error instead of result. The error object has three members, message,code and data which is optional. So in $response = $client->add($a,$b); case var_dump($response) will look like this if $a 10 $b 20 :

object(stdClass)#19 (3) {
  ["jsonrpc"]=>
  string(3) "2.0"
  ["result"]=>
  int(30)
  ["id"]=>
  int(1)
}

And if we call accidentally addd instead of add :

object(stdClass)#19 (3) {
  ["jsonrpc"]=>
  string(3) "2.0"
  ["error"]=>
  object(stdClass)#20 (2) {
    ["code"]=>
    int(-32601)
    ["message"]=>
    string(16) "Method not found"
  }
  ["id"]=>
  int(1)
}

Batch request

Sending a request

You can send more than one request at the same time. In this case you must use an array util to collect RpcRequest objects and passing into callBatch method

1) No one

$client = new JsonRpcClient("http://localhost/jsonrpc/sample/server/");

$listOfCalls = array();

array_push($listOfCalls,new RpcRequest("add",array(33,77)));
array_push($listOfCalls,new RpcRequest("divide",array(44,11),true));
array_push($listOfCalls,new RpcRequest("subtract",array(2,12.3)));
array_push($listOfCalls,new RpcRequest("invalidateSession"));

$responseArray = $client->callBatch($listOfCalls);

2) One of them is a notification

$client = new JsonRpcClient("http://localhost/jsonrpc/sample/server/");
$listOfCalls = array();

array_push($listOfCalls,new RpcRequest("add",array(33,77)));
array_push($listOfCalls,new RpcRequest("add",array(44,11),true));
array_push($listOfCalls,new RpcRequest("add",array(2,12.3)));

$responseArray = $client->callBatch($listOfCalls);

3) All request is notification

$client = new JsonRpcClient("http://localhost/jsonrpc/sample/server/");
$listOfCalls = array();

array_push($listOfCalls,new RpcRequest("add",array(33,77),true));
array_push($listOfCalls,new RpcRequest("add",array(44,11),true));
array_push($listOfCalls,new RpcRequest("add",array(2,12.3),true));

$responseArray = $client->callBatch($listOfCalls);

Accepting the response

Only difference between the Single request that the callBatch will return an array of response objects so $responseArray look like this in case of 1)

array(3) {
  [0]=>
  object(stdClass)#8 (3) {
    ["jsonrpc"]=>
    string(3) "2.0"
    ["result"]=>
    int(110)
    ["id"]=>
    int(2)
  }
  [1]=>
  object(stdClass)#12 (3) {
    ["jsonrpc"]=>
    string(3) "2.0"
    ["result"]=>
    int(55)
    ["id"]=>
    int(3)
  }
  [2]=>
  object(stdClass)#13 (3) {
    ["jsonrpc"]=>
    string(3) "2.0"
    ["result"]=>
    float(14.3)
    ["id"]=>
    int(4)
  }
}

case of 2)

array(2) {
  [0]=>
  object(stdClass)#8 (3) {
    ["jsonrpc"]=>
    string(3) "2.0"
    ["result"]=>
    int(110)
    ["id"]=>
    int(2)
  }
  [1]=>
  object(stdClass)#12 (3) {
    ["jsonrpc"]=>
    string(3) "2.0"
    ["result"]=>
    float(14.3)
    ["id"]=>
    int(3)
  }
}

and finally case of 3) the $responseArray will contain nothing so NULL

How do I use the server?

You can reach the full sample application source @ sample directory. Step by step tuturial soon.

Implementing service

First of all, your service implementation must inherited from Service This is necessary for all service, because the JsonRpcServer will work with Service methods to detect callable methods and their parameters with PHP reflection The client only can reach that method which has a block comment exactly with this content :

/* @JsonRpcMethod*/

The first space after /* is very important, because the reflection can not parse the comment winthout it. But, the below sample correct yet, because Service using strstr detecting the @JsonRpcMethod annotation.

/**
* @JsonRpcMethod which is ...
*/

For example, if you have some public method in MathServiceImpl, which not have any block comment with @JsonRpcMethod annotation, the client can not reach it.

MathServiceImpl.php

class MathServiceImpl extends JsonRpcService {
/** @JsonRpcMethod*/
public function add($aValue,$bValue) {
    return $aValue+$bValue;
}
/** @JsonRpcMethod*/
public function divide($aValue,$bValue) {
    return $aValue/$bValue;
}
/** @JsonRpcMethod*/
public function subtract($aValue,$bValue) {
    return $aValue-$bValue;
}
public function notCallableByRpcAlthoughItsPublic($name) {
    return $name;
    }
}
