FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package fastcgi
Hoa is a modular, extensible and
structured set of PHP libraries.
Moreover, Hoa aims at being a bridge between industrial and research worlds.
Hoa\Fastcgi
This library allows to manipulate the FastCGI protocol, which ensures the communication between a HTTP server and an external program (such as PHP).
Installation
With Composer, to include this library into
your dependencies, you need to
require hoa/fastcgi:

Quick usage
As a quick overview, we propose to execute a PHP file through the FastCGI protocol directly.
Before starting, we need to know that PHP proposes two tools that support
FastCGI: php-cgi and php-fpm (for
FastCGI Process Manager). We will use php-cgi in
local with the standard port 9000 in TCP:
First, we write the Echo.php file, the one we are likely to execute:
Second, we need to open a connexion to the FastCGI server and send a query with the following headers:
SCRIPT_FILENAMEwhich represents the absolute path to the PHP file to execute;REQUEST_METHODwhich represents the HTTP method amongGET,POST,PUT,DELETEetc.;REQUEST_URIwhich represents the identifier of the resource we are trying to access.
Thus:
We can get the headers from the executed file by calling the
Hoa\Fastcgi\Responder::getResponseHeaders method.
This is a good and fast way to execute PHP files (or other programs that support FastCGI) without worrying about binary locations, subshell calls, error handling, etc.
