Msgpack for PHP
This extension provides an API for communicating with MessagePack serialization.
MessagePack is a binary-based efficient object serialization library. It enables to exchange structured objects between many languages just like JSON. But unlike JSON, it is very fast and small.
Requirement
- PHP 7.0 +
Install
Install from PECL
Msgpack is a PECL extension, thus you can simply install it by:
pecl install msgpack
Compile Msgpack from source
/path/to/phpize
./configure --with-php-config=/path/to/php-config
make && make install
Example
<?php
$data = array(0 => 1, 1 => 2, 2 => 3);
$msg = msgpack_pack($data);
$data = msgpack_unpack($msg);
Advanced Example
<?php
$data = array(0 => 1, 1 => 2, 2 => 3);
$packer = new \MessagePack(false);
// ^ same as $packer->setOption(\MessagePack::OPT_PHPONLY, false);
$packed = $packer->pack($data);
$unpacker = new \MessagePackUnpacker(false);
// ^ same as $unpacker->setOption(\MessagePack::OPT_PHPONLY, false);
$unpacker->feed($packed);
$unpacker->execute();
$unpacked = $unpacker->data();
$unpacker->reset();
Advanced Streaming Example
<?php
$data1 = array(0 => 1, 1 => 2, 2 => 3);
$data2 = array("a" => 1, "b" => 2, "c" => 3);
$packer = new \MessagePack(false);
$packed1 = $packer->pack($data1);
$packed2 = $packer->pack($data2);
$unpacker = new \MessagePackUnpacker(false);
$buffer = "";
$nread = 0;
//Simulating streaming data :)
$buffer .= $packed1;
$buffer .= $packed2;
while(true) {
if($unpacker->execute($buffer, $nread)) {
$msg = $unpacker->data();
var_dump($msg);
$unpacker->reset();
$buffer = substr($buffer, $nread);
$nread = 0;
if(!empty($buffer)) {
continue;
}
}
break;
}
