Requirements

  • PHP ^8.0
  • cURL PHP extension
  • JSON PHP extension

Installation

composer require bayfrontmedia/multi-curl

Usage

Single HTTP request

use Bayfront\MultiCurl\Client;

$client = new Client();

A base URL can be set so that future request-related methods do not have to specify the full endpoint. For example:

use Bayfront\MultiCurl\Client;

$client = new Client('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com');

$response = $client->get('posts/1'); // Endpoint from the base URL

echo $response->getBody();

The cURL handle will be created automatically and be ready to use.

Asynchronous HTTP requests

Multiple HTTP requests can be made simultaneously instead of one after the other, thereby limiting the completion time to the duration of the single slowest request instead of the sum of all requests combined.

use Bayfront\MultiCurl\Async;

$async = new Async();

A base URL can be set so that future request-related methods do not have to specify the full endpoint. For example:

use Bayfront\MultiCurl\Async;
use Bayfront\MultiCurl\ClientException;

$async = new Async('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com');

$ids = [
    'posts',
    'comments'
];

$async->create($ids);

try {

    $async
        ->use('posts')->get('posts/1')
        ->use('comments')->get('comments/1');

} catch (ClientException $e) {
    die($e->getMessage());
}

$async->execute();

foreach ($ids as $id) {

    try {

        echo $async->use($id)->getBody();

    } catch (ClientException $e) {
        die($e->getMessage());
    }

}

cURL handles must be made explicitly using the create() method before using.

Public methods

Async class only

Once a cURL handle has been created, the following methods can be used:

Request

Response

create

Description:

(Only available in Async class)

Create cURL handles with identifiers.

cURL handles must be created before they can be used.

Parameters:

  • $ids (array)

Example:

use Bayfront\MultiCurl\Async;

$async = new Async('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com');

$ids = [
    'posts',
    'comments'
];

$async->create($ids);

use

Description:

(Only available in Async class)
