#ReactPHP

[leashade]

As a side note, I kind of like how PHP changed during past 3-4 years. I always used PHP as a sort of mix of Python and Bash in my day-to-day life, and it was also my go-to language for prototyping.

And with all the PHP7+ stuff, ReactPHP, Composer and PSRs, it started to be more and more enjoyable to me.

And I had very little experience with stuff like Laravel or Symfony so far, but they seem to be pretty cool as well.

When I started some of my projects, I used PHP as a language for prototyping, then quickly switched to something else. And my "big" projects that use PHP are just stuck on it because of legacy code.

Now I'm not even sure I would want to change the stack in the future, I kinda like it.

And ReactPHP proved to be pretty stable for async/server apps. Currently have 5 different ones running, some of them for 5+ years almost without stopping, no issues whatsoever.

Well, there were issues in some cases, but these were purely because of my fuckups and the apps were still working fine.

And there were some restarts in this 5 year run, but because I wanted to migrate everything to another node or upgrade the existing one. Stability, speed and memory consumption were never an issue.

Though I never made any performance tests with some real numbers. But at a glance it felt no worse than Node apps really.

And stuff like PXP popping up is great too, adding some TypeScript treatment to the mix.

And there are also ways to merge React.js with PHP, as well as "run" PHP in the browser if you REALLY need it. That seem to be an overkill, but the option is still there, which is awesome.

There are two features I would like to add: operator overload (PXP has this in plans though) and some metaprogramming features from D lang.

Building High-Performance Web Applications with PHP and React

Introduction

In today's fast-paced digital landscape, web applications need to deliver exceptional performance and user experiences. The combination of PHP and React has emerged as a powerful duo to achieve just that. PHP, as a server-side scripting language, provides the backend infrastructure, while React, a JavaScript library, handles the frontend user interface. In this blog, we'll explore how to build high-performance web applications using PHP and React, leveraging their respective strengths and synergies.

Understanding PHP's Role in High-Performance Web Applications PHP, a versatile and widely-used server-side language, forms the backbone of many web applications. Its ease of use, scalability, and large developer community make it an attractive choice for building robust backend systems. To ensure high performance, consider these essential PHP best practices:

✸ Optimize code execution: Avoid costly database queries, optimize loops, and leverage caching mechanisms like opcode caching and data caching. ✸ Choose the right PHP version: PHP 8 introduces performance improvements and new features that can significantly enhance the speed of your applications. ✸ Asynchronous programming: PHP has come a long way with async programming. Explore libraries like ReactPHP to handle asynchronous tasks efficiently.

Introducing React: A Frontend Powerhouse React, developed by Facebook, has revolutionized frontend development by offering a component-based architecture and a virtual DOM for efficient updates. Its reusability and performance make it a great fit for high-quality user interfaces. To leverage React effectively:

✸ Create components: Break down your UI into reusable components, making the codebase more maintainable and allowing for efficient rendering. ✸ Virtual DOM: Understand how React's virtual DOM efficiently updates the UI by minimizing direct DOM manipulation. ✸ State management: Implement a state management solution like Redux or React's built-in useState hook for maintaining the application state in a predictable way.

Building a High-Performance Web Application: Best Practices Now that we've covered the individual strengths of PHP and React, let's explore how to bring them together to build high-performance web applications:

✸ Decoupling frontend and backend: Separate the frontend and backend to build a more flexible and scalable architecture. PHP will handle data processing and business logic, while React will render the user interface. ✸ RESTful APIs: Design clean and efficient RESTful APIs to facilitate smooth communication between PHP and React components. ✸ Caching: Employ caching mechanisms on both the server-side and client-side to reduce the load on the server and minimize redundant data fetching. ✸ Code splitting: Utilize React's code splitting feature to load only the necessary components on demand, reducing initial loading times. ✸ Minification and bundling: Minify and bundle your JavaScript and CSS files to reduce their size and improve load times.

Deploying and Scaling the Application With the application development complete, it's time to deploy and scale it for optimal performance:

✸ Hosting: Choose a hosting solution that aligns with the needs of your PHP and React application. Consider cloud platforms that offer scalability and performance optimization. ✸ Content Delivery Networks (CDNs): Implement a CDN to cache and deliver static assets closer to users, reducing latency and speeding up content delivery. ✸ Load balancing: Use load balancing techniques to distribute incoming traffic across multiple servers, ensuring stability and high availability.

Conclusion

By combining the power of PHP and React, developers can create high-performance web applications that delight users with their speed and responsiveness. PHP's backend capabilities complement React's frontend prowess, resulting in a seamless and efficient user experience. By following best practices and leveraging their strengths, developers can build web applications that are not only high-performing but also scalable and maintainable in the long run. So, start harnessing the potential of PHP and React today to create the next generation of web applications.

Writing Async Libraries – Let’s Convert HTML to PDF

I can barely remember a conference where the topic of asynchronous PHP wasn't discussed. I am pleased that it's so frequently spoken about these days. There's a secret these speakers aren't telling, though...

Making asynchronous servers, resolving domain names, interacting with file systems: these are the easy things. Making your own asynchronous libraries is hard. And it's where you spend most of your time!

The reason those easy things are easy is because they were the proof of concept – to make async PHP competitive with NodeJS. You can see this in how similar their early interfaces were:

var http = require("http"); var server = http.createServer(); server.on("request", function(request, response) { response.writeHead(200, { "Content-Type": "text/plain" }); response.end("Hello World"); }); server.listen(3000, "127.0.0.1");

This code was tested with Node 7.3.0

require "vendor/autoload.php"; $loop = React\EventLoop\Factory::create(); $socket = new React\Socket\Server($loop); $server = new React\Http\Server($socket); $server->on("request", function($request, $response) { $response->writeHead(200, [ "Content-Type" => "text/plain" ]); $response->end("Hello world"); }); $socket->listen(3000, "127.0.0.1"); $loop->run();

This code was tested with PHP 7.1 and react/http:0.4.2

Today, we're going to look at a few ways to make your application code work well in an asynchronous architecture. Fret not – your code can still work in a synchronous architecture, so you don't have to give anything up to learn this new skill. Apart from a bit of time...

You can find the code for this tutorial on Github. I've tested it with PHP 7.1 and the most recent versions of ReactPHP and Amp.

Promising Theory

There are a few abstractions common to asynchronous code. We've already seen one of them: callbacks. Callbacks, by their very name, describe how they treat slow or blocking operations. Synchronous code is fraught with waiting. Ask for something, wait for that thing to happen.

So, instead, asynchronous frameworks and libraries can employ callbacks. Ask for something, and when it happens: the framework or library will call your code back.

In the case of HTTP servers, we don't preemptively handle all requests. We don't wait around for requests to happen, either. We simply describe the code that should be called, should a request happen. The event loop takes care of the rest.

A second common abstraction is promises. Where callbacks are hooks waiting for future events, promises are references to future values. They look something like this:

readFile() ->then(function(string $content) { print "content: " . $content; }) ->catch(function(Exception $e) { print "error: " . $e->getMessage(); });

It's a bit more code than callbacks alone, but it's an interesting approach. We wait for something to happen, and then do another thing. If something goes wrong, we catch the error and respond sensibly. This may look simple, but it's not spoken about nearly enough.

We're still using callbacks, but we've wrapped them in an abstraction which helps us in other ways. One such benefit is that they allow multiple resolution callbacks...

$promise = readFile(); $promise->then(...)->catch(...); // ...let's add logging to existing code $promise->then(function(string $content) use ($logger) { $logger->info("file was read"); });

There's something else I'd like us to focus on. It's that promises provide a common language – a common abstraction – for thinking about how synchronous code can become asynchronous code.

Let's take some application code and make it asynchronous, using promises...
