In recent years, Swoole<\/a> has taken over as the new best programming solution thanks to its scalability and the performance boosting capabilities it offers as a PHP
\nextension.<\/p>\n

Swoole represents an event-driven network communication framework for
\nasynchronous and parallel PHP requests, which is aimed at scaling up
\nthe performance of web applications.
\nBased on the C language exclusively, Swoole allows PHP developers to
\nwrite scalable applications for: Internet, mobile communication, cloud
\ncomputing, online gaming, without the need to have an in-depth knowledge
\nof non-blocking I\/O programming.
\nLearn more about the Swoole framework and about how you can make use of it on our web hosting platform.<\/p>\n

What is the Swoole framework about?<\/h2>\n

Swoole was introduced with one basic idea in mind – to provide
\nefficiency to PHP programmers and give them more time to focus their
\nefforts on more innovative products.
\nSwoole boasts built-in async, multi-thread\u00d0\u00b5d I\/O (input\/output)
\nmodules, which distinguish it from the other async programming
\nframeworks such as Nginx and Node.js.
\nThis allows programmers to create network servers and to perform database and filesystem operations for the PHP language.
\nPHP developers can use either sync or async API to write the applications.
\nHere is a glimpse of the advantages of the Swoole framework:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • 100% C-compiled, with extremely powerful performance;<\/li>\n
  • Simple and easy to use, development-efficient;<\/li>\n
  • Event-driven, non-blocking asynchronous processing;<\/li>\n
  • Supports millions of concurrent TCP connections;<\/li>\n
  • Supports asynchronous\/synchronous\/coroutine;<\/li>\n
  • Supports multiprocessing\/multi-threading;<\/li>\n
  • CPU affinity\/daemon process;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    And here is a list of the key Swoole components, which make Swoole truly efficient for application development:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • IPv4 \/ IPv6 \/ Unixsocket network support;<\/li>\n
    • Async TCP\/UDP server and client;<\/li>\n
    • SSL \/ TLS support;<\/li>\n
    • Async HTTP\/ WebSocket client;<\/li>\n
    • Database connection pooling;<\/li>\n
    • Async MySQL client;<\/li>\n
    • Async Redis client;<\/li>\n
    • Fast Serializer \/ Unserializer;<\/li>\n
    • Milliseconds task scheduler;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      With this wide array of components, Swoole can be utilized by a
      \nnumber of applications for mobile communication, cloud computing,
      \nmicroservices, mobile games, and live chat systems, to name a few, which
      \nare normally within the capacity of C++ or Java developers.
      \nCurrently, Swoole is adopted by some of the greatest retail platforms like Alibaba and Baidu.<\/p>\n

      How does the Swoole framework work?<\/h2>\n

      Swoole runs in CLI mode, which distinguishes it from the common PHP model.<\/p>\n

      <\/div>\n
      <\/div>\n

      Here are the key differences between Swoole and the traditional PHP model:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • Swoole supports more server-side protocols;<\/li>\n
      • Swoole supports long-live connections for websocket\/TCP\/UDP server;<\/li>\n
      • Swoole creates additional worker processes so as to make use of all available CPU cores;<\/li>\n
      • Swoole can manage and re-use the status in memory.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        How to make use of Swoole on our platform?<\/h2>\n

        The Swoole extension has been readily installed on our web hosting
        \nplatform and you can enable it with a click for your projects.
        \nIn the PHP settings section
        \nof the Web Hosting\u00a0Control Panel, just scroll down to the Swoole
        \nsetting at the bottom of the table and click on the pertaining checkbox.<\/p>\n

        <\/div>\n

        \u00a0<\/b>
        \nNote:<\/b> The Swoole extension is currently supported by
        \nthe PHP 7 version only, so make sure to switch to any of the supported
        \nPHP 7 releases first.<\/p>\n

        <\/div>\n
        <\/div>\n

        Once you have enabled Swoole for your hosting account, you will need
        \nto create an instance for your project from the Supervisor section.<\/p>\n

        In the Supervisor section, just click on the Create Instance<\/i>\u00a0button and then specify the path to the script you want to use Swoole for:<\/p>\n

        <\/div>\n
        <\/div>\n
        In our example, we are using a websocket server script:<\/div>\n
        <\/div>\n
        <\/div>\n
        <\/div>\n

        Once the instance has been added, you will need to copy the port that has been generated for the instance:<\/p>\n

        <\/div>\n

        and paste it into the script file as displayed below:<\/p>\n

        <\/div>\n

        That\u2019s it! Now you will be able to run a websocket server by using the Swoole network framework on at Thexyz.<\/p>\n<\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
