This is an example of how you may give instructions on setting up your project locally. To get a local copy up and running follow these simple example steps.

Prerequisites

• PHP 7.2+
• CodeIgniter Framework (4.* recommended)
• Composer
• PHP sockets extension enabled

Installation

composer require takielias/codeigniter4-websocket @dev

Publishing Resource

You need to publish the resources for the default configuration

Usage

First start CodeIgniter

php spark serve

If you run the server in a different port, follow the command below.

PHP spark serve --port=9092

Finally start Websocket Server

php public/index.php Websocket start

N.B : Don't forget to add the following line in app/Config/Routes.php app/Config/Routes.php

$routes->setAutoRoute(true);

WOW You made it !!! ✔️

Open two pages of your project on the following URL with different IDs :

For default Port http://localhost:8080/Websocket/user/1 http://localhost:8080/Websocket/user/2

For custom Port http://localhost:9092/Websocket/user/1 http://localhost:9092/Websocket/user/2

Authentication and callbacks

There are few predefined callbacks, here's the list :

auth, event, close, citimer, roomjoin, roomleave, roomchat

Please check Websocket.php controller To get the Defining example of various Callback Function

    public function start()
    {
        $ws = service('CodeigniterWebsocket');
        $ws->set_callback('auth', array($this, '_auth'));
        $ws->set_callback('event', array($this, '_event'));
        $ws->run();
    }

    public function _auth($datas = null)
    {
        // Here you can verify everything you want to perform user login.

        return (!empty($datas->user_id)) ? $datas->user_id : false;
    }

    public function _event($datas = null)
    {
        // Here you can do everything you want, each time message is received 
        echo 'Hey ! I\'m an EVENT callback' . PHP_EOL;
    }

Two Callback functions have been defined in the above example. First One is auth & the Second one is event.

🔨🔨🔨 If you need to customize Callback function, Please check the CodeigniterWebsocker.php config file in Your config directory.
