Pheanstalk is a pure PHP 5.2+ client for the beanstalkd workqueue. It has been actively developed, and used in production by many, since late 2008.
Created by Paul Annesley, Pheanstalk is rigorously unit tested and written using encapsulated, maintainable object oriented design. Community feedback, bug reports and patches has led to a stable 1.0.0 release in 2010, and a 2.0.0 release in 2013.
beanstalkd up to the latest version 1.4 is supported. All commands and responses specified in the protocol documentation for beanstalkd 1.3 are implemented.
Declare pheanstalk as a dependency in your projects composer.json
file:
{
"require": {
"pda/pheanstalk": "$VERSION"
}
}
Replace $VERSION
with one of the stable versions available on
Packagist or 2.*@dev
to get
the current development version for the 2.x Pheanstalk API.
<?php
// If you aren't using composer, register Pheanstalk class loader
require_once('pheanstalk_init.php');
$pheanstalk = new Pheanstalk_Pheanstalk('127.0.0.1');
// ----------------------------------------
// producer (queues jobs)
$pheanstalk
->useTube('testtube')
->put("job payload goes here\n");
// ----------------------------------------
// worker (performs jobs)
$job = $pheanstalk
->watch('testtube')
->ignore('default')
->reserve();
echo $job->getData();
$pheanstalk->delete($job);
// ----------------------------------------
// check server availability
$pheanstalk->getConnection()->isServiceListening(); // true or false
There is a section of the test suite which depends on a running beanstalkd
at 127.0.0.1:11300, which was previously opt-in via --with-server
.
Since porting to PHPUnit, all tests are run at once. Feel free to submit
a pull request to rectify this.
