# What is RudderStack? [](https://deepwiki.com/rudderlabs/rudder-php-sdk) [RudderStack](https://rudderstack.com/) is a **customer data pipeline** tool for collecting, routing and processing data from your websites, apps, cloud tools, and data warehouse. More information on RudderStack can be found [here](https://github.com/rudderlabs/rudder-server). ## Getting Started with PHP SDK Install `rudder-php-sdk` using `composer` ## Initialize the ## SDK Initialization options Below parameters are optional and can be passed during SDK initialization. | Name | Type | Default value | Description | |:------------------------|:---------|:--------------------------------|:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `consumer` | String | `lib_curl` | To explicitly mark which consumer to use. | | `data_plane_url` | String | `hosted.rudderlabs.com` | The data plane URL. | | `debug` | Boolean | `false` | Whether to log messages and wait for a response. Makes any queuing consumers non-async, defaults to false. This will make the library block until a response has been received from the API, so it is not recommended for production use. | | `ssl` | Boolean | `true` | Whether to use SSL for the connection. | | `tls` | String | `false` | Whether to use TLS instead of SSL for the socket connection. | | `error_handler` | Function | `function ($code, $message) {}` | A handler which will be called on errors to aid in debugging. A function to handle errors, particularly useful for debugging. Note that if debug mode is not specified, then the error_handler will only be called on connection level errors and timeouts. | | `max_queue_size` | Number | `10000` | The max number of items in the queue . | | `flush_at` | Number | `100` | How many items to send in a single curl request . | | `timeout` | Number | `0.5` | The number of seconds to wait for the socket request to time out . | | `filename` | String | `/tmp/analytics.log` | The location to write the log file when file consumer is selected. | | `compress_request` | Boolean | `true` | Whether to use gzipped request payloads. This is supported for server versions 1.4.0 and above. | | `flush_inteval` | Number | `10000` | Frequency in milliseconds to send data using flush method execution. | | `curl_timeout` | Number | `0 (infinite)` | Set timeout for the curl connections. | | `curl_connecttimeout` | Number | `300` | Set connect timeout for the curl connections. | | `max_retries` | Number | `3` | Number of retries after the initial request for transient failures. | | `retry_base_delay` | Number | `100` | Base retry delay in milliseconds. | | `max_retry_delay` | Number | `30000` | Maximum retry backoff delay in milliseconds. | | `retry_jitter_ratio` | Number | `0.2` | Jitter ratio added to retry delays. | | `max_item_size_bytes` | Number | `32000` | Set maximum message item size in bytes. | | `max_queue_size_bytes` | Number | `512000` | Set maximum batch size in bytes. | | `filepermissions` | Number | `0644` | Set the file permissions for file consumer. | The `lib_curl` and `socket` consumers retry HTTP `429` and `5xx` responses, then return `false` after the retry budget is exhausted. The `fork_curl` consumer is fire-and-forget when `debug` is disabled, so it passes retry flags to the background curl process but cannot synchronously report final delivery failure. ## Send Events ## Acknowledgements This project is a fork of [analytics-php](https://github.com/segmentio/analytics-php) by [segmentio]. ## Contact Us If you come across any issues while configuring or using this SDK, feel free to start a conversation on our [Slack](https://resources.rudderstack.com/join-rudderstack-slack) channel.
