A server-side PHP implementation of the socket.io protocol built on the Workerman event-driven networking framework. It lets PHP applications serve socket.io clients with realtime event-based communication over websocket and polling transports.
Use cases
- build a realtime chat server in PHP
- serve socket.io clients from a PHP backend
- push realtime events to browsers from PHP
- implement websocket event handling in PHP
- broadcast messages to connected clients
- replace a node.js socket.io server with PHP
When to choose
- your stack is PHP and you need socket.io-compatible realtime messaging
- you want an event-driven PHP server without node.js
- your clients use socket.io v1.3–v2.x
When to avoid
- you need socket.io v3 or v4 client compatibility
- you want Workerman 5.x support
- you need a client-side socket.io implementation
