guzzlevsem-http-request
Guzzle is a PHP HTTP client library that makes it easy to send HTTP requests and trivial to integrate with web services. It allows you to send HTTP/1.1 requests with various methods like GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, and others.
Guzzle also supports sending both synchronous and asynchronous requests, caching, and even has built-in support for OAuth 1.0a. Additionally, it can handle different HTTP errors and handle redirects automatically. It also has built-in support for serializing and deserializing data using formats like JSON and XML, as well as sending multipart file uploads.
Overall Guzzle is an easy to use and powerful library for working with HTTP in PHP.
em-http-request is a Ruby gem for making asynchronous HTTP requests using EventMachine. It allows you to perform multiple requests simultaneously and handle the responses as they come in, rather than waiting for each request to complete before making the next one.
In short it supports: - Asynchronous HTTP API for single & parallel request execution - Keep-Alive and HTTP pipelining support - Auto-follow 3xx redirects with max depth - Automatic gzip & deflate decoding - Streaming response processing - Streaming file uploads - HTTP proxy and SOCKS5 support - Basic Auth & OAuth - Connection-level & global middleware support - HTTP parser via http_parser.rb - Works wherever EventMachine runs: Rubinius, JRuby, MRI
Example Use
use GuzzleHttp\Client;
// Create a client session:
$client = new Client();
// can also set session details like headers
$client = new Client([
'headers' => [
'User-Agent' => 'webscraping.fyi',
]
]);
// GET request:
$response = $client->get('http://httpbin.org/get');
// print all details
var_dump($response);
// or the important bits
printf("status: %s\n", $response->getStatusCode());
printf("headers: %s\n", json_encode($response->getHeaders(), JSON_PRETTY_PRINT));
printf("body: %s", $response->getBody()->getContents());
// POST request
$response = $client->post(
'https://httpbin.org/post',
// for JSON use json argument:
['json' => ['query' => 'foobar', 'page' => 2]]
// or formdata use form_params:
// ['form_params' => ['query' => 'foobar', 'page' => 2]]
);
// For ASYNC requests getAsync function can be used:
$promise1 = $client->getAsync('https://httpbin.org/get');
$promise2 = $client->getAsync('https://httpbin.org/get?foo=bar');
// await it:
$results = Promise\unwrap([$promise1, $promise2]);
foreach ($results as $result) {
echo $result->getBody();
}
// or add promise callback
Promise\each([$promise1, $promise2], function ($response, $index, $callable) {
echo $response->getBody();
});
EventMachine.run {
http = EventMachine::HttpRequest.new('http://google.com/').get :query => {'keyname' => 'value'}
# add callback for errors:
http.errback { p 'Uh oh'; EM.stop }
# add callback for successful requests
http.callback {
p http.response_header.status
p http.response_header
p http.response
EventMachine.stop
}
}
