How do we do this in PHP? Request: • $_SERVER, $_GET, $_POST, $_COOKIE, $_FILES • apache_request_headers() / getallheaders() • php://input Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

How do we do this in PHP? Response: • header() • http_response_code() • header_list() / headers_sent() • echo (& ob_*() family) Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

How do we do this in PHP? URI: scheme://username:password@hostname:port/path?arg=value#anchor • parse_url() • parse_str() • http_build_query() Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

PSR 7: HTTP messaging • Provides for a uniform access to HTTP messages • A set of interfaces for requests and responses • Created by Framework Interoperability Group Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

Slide 12

Slide 12 text

It's just a set of interfaces Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

Slide 13

Slide 13 text

RequestInterface • Protocol version • HTTP method • URI • Headers • Body Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

Slide 14

Slide 14 text

ServerRequestInterface In addition to RequestInterface: • Server parameters • Query string arguments • Deserialised body • Uploaded Files • Attributes Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

Slide 15

Slide 15 text

Response • Protocol version • Status code (& reason phrase) • Headers • Body Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

Slide 16

Slide 16 text

Two key things about PSR-7 Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

Slide 17

Slide 17 text

Firstly: Messages and URIs are IMMUTABLE! Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

Slide 18

Slide 18 text

Immutability Request, ServerRequest, Response & Uri are immutable $uri = new Uri('https://api.joind.in/v2.1/events'); $uri2 = $uri->withQuery('?filter=upcoming'); $uri3 = $uri->withQuery('?filter=cfp'); Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

Slide 19

Immutability Request, ServerRequest, Response & Uri are immutable $uri = new Uri('https://api.joind.in/v2.1/events'); $uri2 = $uri->withQuery('?filter=upcoming'); $uri3 = $uri->withQuery('?filter=cfp'); public function withQuery($query) { $clone = clone $this; $clone->query = $this->filterQuery($query); return $clone; } Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

Slide 20

Slide 20 text

Common mistake $response = new Response(); $response->withStatus(302); $response->withHeader('Location', 'http://example.com'); return $response; Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

Slide 21

Slide 21 text

What you meant! $response = new Response(); $response = $response->withStatus(302); $response = $response->withHeader('Location', 'http://example.com'); // or $response = new Response(); $response = $response->withStatus(302) ->withHeader('Location', 'http://example.com'); Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

Slide 22

Slide 22 text

Headers Reading from the message: $request->hasHeader('Accept'); // boolean $request->getHeader('Accept'); // array $request->getHeaderLine('Accept'); // string Updating the message: $response = $response->withHeader('Accept', 'application/xml'); $response = $response->withAddedHeader('Accept', 'text/xml'); $response = $response->withoutHeader('Location'); Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

Slide 23

Slide 23 text

Secondly: Message bodies are STREAMS Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

Slide 24

Slide 24 text

Streams Allows for very large message bodies in a memory efficient manner $largeFile = __DIR__ . '/brand_guidelines.ppt'; return (new Response()) ->withHeader('Content-Type', 'application/vnd.ms-powerpoint') ->withHeader('Content-Length', (string) filesize($largeFile)) ->withBody(new Stream($largeFile)); Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

Slide 25

Slide 25 text

Handling strings For strings, use the php:://temp stream: $response = $response->withBody(new Stream('php://temp')); $response->getBody()->write('Hello world!'); Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

Slide 26

Slide 26 text

Mutable! $body->write('Hello'); $body->write(' World!'); $response = (new Response()) ->withStatus(200, 'OK') ->withHeader('Content-Type', 'application/html') ->withBody($body); Mitigate: Use read-only streams for server requests and client responses Rob Allen ~ @akrabat

Slide 27

Slide 27 text

ServerRequest Attributes Allow passing of data from one component to the next // component 1 function findCountry($request) { $country = $this->geoLocate($request); $request = $request->withAttribute('country', $country); return $request; } // In an action method function listAction($request, $response, $args) { $country = $request->getAttribute('country'); // do something now that we know the country } Rob Allen ~ @akrabat
