Header

This package provides the artisan command ratchet:serve that will start a Ratchet Io Server, Web Socket, or Wamp Server with the class of your making. Included are a few functions like abort() send() and sendAll() to make some common tasks easier.

Supports

  • WaServer, WampServer & IoServer
  • IpBlackList
  • Connection throttling
  • Message throttling

Installation

Install with composer

composer require askedio/laravel-ratchet

Register the provider in config/app.php.

Askedio\LaravelRatchet\Providers\LaravelRatchetServiceProvider::class,

Install ZMQ to use the WampServer driver.

apt-get install php7.0-zmq

Push Server

The default driver will create a simple Push server based on Ratchets example.

php artisan ratchet:serve

Starting WampServer server on: 0.0.0.0:8080
Starting ZMQ server on: 127.0.0.1:5555

Create your own class based on or extending RatchetServerExample.php.

Insert data to ZMQ using the example provided by Ratchet.

Socket Server

Use the IoServer driver and the RatchetServerExample.php class to create a simple socket server.

Here is an example you could use in your App.

<?php

namespace App;

use Ratchet\ConnectionInterface;
use Askedio\LaravelRatchet\RatchetServer;

class RatchetServer extends RatchetServer
{
    public function onMessage(ConnectionInterface $conn, $input)
    {
        parent::onMessage($conn, $input);

        if (!$this->throttled) {
            $this->send($conn, 'Hello you.');

            $this->sendAll('Hello everyone.');

            $this->send($conn, 'Wait, I don\'t know you! Bye bye!');

            $this->abort($conn);
        }
    }
}

You'll need to change the class to in your command line or config.

php artisan ratchet:serve --driver=IoServer --class="App\RatchetServer::class"

Command Line

To use the default values from the configuration run the command as follows:

php artisan ratchet:serve

You can also define configuration items on the command line:

php artisan ratchet:serve  --help

Usage:
  ratchet:serve [options]

Options:
      --host[=HOST]      Ratchet server host [default: "0.0.0.0"]
  -p, --port[=PORT]      Ratchet server port [default: "9090"]
      --class[=CLASS]    Class that implements MessageComponentInterface. [default: "Askedio\LaravelRatchet\RatchetServerExample"]
      --driver[=DRIVER]  Ratchet connection driver [IoServer|WsServer|WampServer] [default: "WampServer"]
      ...

Configuration

There are several configuration values that you will want to change. Publish the configuration then you can edit config/ratchet.php.

php artisan vendor:publish

Configuration Options

  • class: Your MessageComponentInterface or WampServerInterface class.
  • host: The host to listen on.
  • port: The port to listen on.
  • connectionLimit: The total number of connections allowed (RatchetServer only).
  • throttle: Throttle connections and messages.
    • onOpen: limit:delay for connections.
    • onMessage: limit:delay for messages.
  • abortOnMessageThrottle: disconnect client when message throttle triggered.
  • blackList: Collection or Model of the hosts to ban using IpBlackList.

Options

Send a message to the current connection.

$this->send($conn, $message);

Send a message to all connections.

$this->sendAll($message);

Close current connection.

$this->abort($conn);

Supervisor Configuration

Supervisor is a client/server system that allows its users to control a number of processes on UNIX-like operating systems.

Things crash and long running processes need to be monitored. We can use Supervisor to help with this.

Install supervisor.

sudo apt-get install supervisor

Create the config.

Replace /home/forge/app.com/ with the path to your application.

sudo cat <<EOF > /etc/supervisor/conf.d/laravel-ratchet.conf
[program:laravel-ratchet]
process_name=%(program_name)s_%(process_num)02d
command=php /home/forge/app.com/artisan ratchet:serve -q
autostart=true
autorestart=true
user=vagrant
numprocs=1
redirect_stderr=true
stdout_logfile=/home/forge/app.com/ratchet.log
EOF

Enable & Start.

sudo supervisorctl reread

sudo supervisorctl update

supervisorctl start laravel-ratchet:*
