Download the PHP package swoft/php-amqplib without Composer

php-amqplib

This library is a pure PHP implementation of the AMQP 0-9-1 protocol. It's been tested against RabbitMQ.

Requirements: PHP 5.3 due to the use of namespaces.

Requirements: bcmath and mbstring extensions This library utilizes the bcmath and mbstring PHP extensions. The installation steps vary per PHP version and the underlying OS. The following example shows how to add to an existing PHP installation on Ubuntu 15.10:

The library was used for the PHP examples of RabbitMQ in Action and the official RabbitMQ tutorials.

Project Maintainers

Thanks to videlalvaro and postalservice14 for their hard work maintaining php-amqplib! The library wouldn't be where it is without them.

The package is now maintained by nubeiro and several Pivotal engineers working on RabbitMQ and related projects.

Supported RabbitMQ Versions

Starting with version 2.0 this library uses AMQP 0.9.1 by default and thus requires RabbitMQ 2.0 or later version. Usually server upgrades do not require any application code changes since the protocol changes very infrequently but please conduct your own testing before upgrading.

Supported RabbitMQ Extensions

Since the library uses AMQP 0.9.1 we added support for the following RabbitMQ extensions:

• Exchange to Exchange Bindings
• Basic Nack
• Publisher Confirms
• Consumer Cancel Notify

Extensions that modify existing methods like alternate exchanges are also supported.

• enqueue/amqp-lib is a amqp interop compatible wrapper.

Setup

Ensure you have composer installed, then run the following command:

That will fetch the library and its dependencies inside your vendor folder. Then you can add the following to your .php files in order to use the library

Then you need to use the relevant classes, for example:

Usage

With RabbitMQ running open two Terminals and on the first one execute the following commands to start the consumer:

Then on the other Terminal do:

You should see the message arriving to the process on the other Terminal

Then to stop the consumer, send to it the quit message:

If you need to listen to the sockets used to connect to RabbitMQ then see the example in the non blocking consumer.

Change log

Please see CHANGELOG for more information what has changed recently.

Tutorials

To not repeat ourselves, if you want to learn more about this library, please refer to the official RabbitMQ tutorials.

More Examples

• amqp_ha_consumer.php: demos the use of mirrored queues
• amqp_consumer_exclusive.php and amqp_publisher_exclusive.php: demos fanout exchanges using exclusive queues.
• amqp_consumer_fanout_{1,2}.php and amqp_publisher_fanout.php: demos fanout exchanges with named queues.
• basic_get.php: demos obtaining messages from the queues by using the basic get AMQP call.

Batch Publishing

Let's say you have a process that generates a bunch of messages that are going to be published to the same exchange using the same routing_key and options like mandatory. Then you could make use of the batch_basic_publish library feature. You can batch messages like this:

and then send the batch like this:

When do we publish the message batch?

Let's say our program needs to read from a file and then publish one message per line. Depending on the message size, you will have to decide when it's better to send the batch. You could send it every 50 messages, or every hundred. That's up to you.

Optimized Message Publishing

Another way to speed up your message publishing is by reusing the AMQPMessage message instances. You can create your new message like this:

Now let's say that while you want to change the message body for future messages, you will keep the same properties, that is, your messages will still be text/plain and the delivery_mode will still be AMQPMessage::DELIVERY_MODE_PERSISTENT. If you create a new AMQPMessage instance for every published message, then those properties would have to be re-encoded in the AMQP binary format. You could avoid all that by just reusing the AMQPMessage and then resetting the message body like this:

Truncating Large Messages

AMQP imposes no limit on the size of messages; if a very large message is received by a consumer, PHP's memory limit may be reached within the library before the callback passed to basic_consume is called.

To avoid this, you can call the method AMQPChannel::setBodySizeLimit(int $bytes) on your Channel instance. Body sizes exceeding this limit will be truncated, and delivered to your callback with a AMQPMessage::$is_truncated flag set to true. The property AMQPMessage::$body_size will reflect the true body size of a received message, which will be higher than strlen(AMQPMessage::getBody()) if the message has been truncated.

Note that all data above the limit is read from the AMQP Channel and immediately discarded, so there is no way to retrieve it within your callback. If you have another consumer which can handle messages with larger payloads, you can use basic_reject or basic_nack to tell the server (which still has a complete copy) to forward it to a Dead Letter Exchange.

By default, no truncation will occur. To disable truncation on a Channel that has had it enabled, pass 0 (or null) to AMQPChannel::setBodySizeLimit().

UNIX Signals

If you have installed PCNTL extension dispatching of signal will be handled when consumer is not processing message.

To disable this feature just define constant AMQP_WITHOUT_SIGNALS as true

Debugging

If you want to know what's going on at a protocol level then add the following constant to your code:

Benchmarks

To run the publishing/consume benchmark type:

Tests

To successfully run the tests you need to first setup the test user and test virtual host.

You can do that by running the following commands after starting RabbitMQ:

Once your environment is set up you can run your tests like this:

Please see CONTRIBUTING for details.

Using AMQP 0.8

If you still want to use the old version of the protocol then you can do it by settings the following constant in your configuration code:

The default value is '0.9.1'.

Providing your own autoloader

If for some reason you don't want to use composer, then you need to have an autoloader in place fo the library classes. People have reported to use this autoloader with success.
