After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

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 PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • 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.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package multicurl

maurice2k/multicurl

Maurice\Multicurl provides a powerful, easy-to-use object-oriented interface for PHP's curl_multi_* functions, enabling high-performance concurrent HTTP requests with automatic connection management.

Beyond being just a wrapper, it includes a complete event loop system that intelligently manages concurrent connections, enforces connection limits, and handles both connection and total timeouts automatically.

Key Components

Manager - Orchestrates multiple channels, handling the event loop and connection concurrency automatically.

HttpChannel - The primary class you'll use for making HTTP requests. It provides a clean, fluent API for GET/POST requests, authentication, headers, redirects, and more.

Specialized Channels:

Installation

Install with composer:

Compatibility

Maurice\Multicurl requires PHP 8.1 (or better) with the curl extension enabled.

Usage

Basic example

Outputs something like this:

Adding new channels on the fly

In this example we're implementing a super simple web crawler that starts at Wikipedia's "Web Crawler" page and extracts at most five new pages per crawled page until 20 pages have been put into the manager (successfully crawled or not).

A cleaner way would have been to create a HttpCrawlChannel (extending HttpChannel) that directly implements and overwrites HttpChannel's onReady method (as well as onTimeout and onError).

Outputs something like this:

Create a MCP client using McpChannel

This example demonstrates how to use McpChannel to connect to a remote MCP server and list available tools.

Works for newer MCP protocol version 2025-03-26 and above ("streamable HTTP").

Outputs something like this (will vary based on the server's available tools):
