Hi, I made a PHP Websocket with Ratchet.
The server.php is as follows:
require "../vendor/autoload.php";
use Ratchet\Server\IoServer;
use Ratchet\Http\HttpServer;
use Ratchet\WebSocket\WsServer;
use App\Chat;
$server = IoServer::factory(
new HttpServer(
new WsServer(
new Chat()
)
),
8000
);
$server->run();
And the Chat() class is as follows:
<?php
namespace App;
use Ratchet\MessageComponentInterface;
use Ratchet\ConnectionInterface;
class Chat implements MessageComponentInterface {
protected $clients;
public function __construct() {
$this->clients = new \SplObjectStorage;
}
public function onOpen(ConnectionInterface $conn) {
// Store the new connection to send messages to later
$this->clients->attach($conn);
echo "New connection! ({$conn->resourceId})\n";
}
public function onMessage(ConnectionInterface $from, $msg) {
$numRecv = count($this->clients) - 1;
echo sprintf('Connection %d sending message "%s" to %d other connection%s' . "\n"
, $from->resourceId, $msg, $numRecv, $numRecv == 1 ? '' : 's');
foreach ($this->clients as $client) {
if ($from === $client) {
// The sender is not the receiver, send to each client connected
$client->send($msg);
}
}
}
public function onClose(ConnectionInterface $conn) {
// The connection is closed, remove it, as we can no longer send it messages
$this->clients->detach($conn);
echo "Connection {$conn->resourceId} has disconnected\n";
}
public function onError(ConnectionInterface $conn, \Exception $e) {
echo "An error has occurred: {$e->getMessage()}\n";
$conn->close();
}
}
So far, so good. However, I have the notifications table in mysql, and I would like to send the client a message whenever there is a new record, in case the client is "listening" to the server until it sends an alert. How can I do that?
You want to control the customer?

I don’t know if that would be it. For example, I have the notifications table, I want to give a $client->send() only when the table has new records. I would have to loop running the query all the time inside Websocket?

Are the table changes made by one of the users who are connected in the room? If yes, once a user executes an action that inserts a new record in the notifications table, you can select and send it to users logged in the room as a message
