Faster and more scalable apps, also use it as Serverless.

Run almost any PHP app with the async event driven Workerman, without touch 1 line of code in your fw or app.

If your app or fw use a Front Controller, 99% that will work. Requires minimun PHP 8.0.

Actually working with:

• Symfony
• Laravel
• CakePHP
• Yii2
• Slim
• KumbiaPHP
• ThinkPHP
• Leaf
• ... (Your app?)

Still testing with more fws and apps. Without touch a line of code.

NEW !!! Workerman shared nothing mode

We started to test it. Experimental still.

Each request is independent and load the .php file, like with PHP-FPM. Using the same .php files.

Framework	JSON	1-query	Multiple queries	Fortunes	Updates	Plaintext
php php-fpm	187,747	97,658	12,784	79,309	2,010	195,283
php workerman	822,930	134,475	15,648	124,923	4,683	1,161,016

Performance bench Worker mode

Results from Techempower benchmark. Without touch a line of code.

Symfony demo with Workerman

Symfony initialization 0ms and half the time per request.

Installation

composer require joanhey/adapterman

Automatically install Workerman too.

Tree

Where to create the files (server.php and start.php)

.
├── app(dir)
├── public(dir)
├── vendor(dir)
├── composer.json
├── server.php
└── start.php

Server

server.php

<?php

require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use Adapterman\Adapterman;
use Workerman\Worker;

Adapterman::init();

$http_worker                = new Worker('http://0.0.0.0:8080');
$http_worker->count         = 8;
$http_worker->name          = 'AdapterMan';

$http_worker->onWorkerStart = static function () {
    //init();
    require __DIR__.'/start.php';
};

$http_worker->onMessage = static function ($connection, $request) {

    $connection->send(run());
};

Worker::runAll();

Front Controller

It's different for any fw and app.

We are creating recipes for popular apps and frameworks.

• Symfony
• Laravel
• Lumen
• Slim

Recommended start.php and leave index.php in public.

We can run the app with Workerman and with php-fpm at the same time.

Available commands in workerman

To run your app.

php server.php start
php server.php start -d
php server.php status
php server.php status -d
php server.php connections
php server.php stop
php server.php stop -g
php server.php restart
php server.php reload
php server.php reload -g

Workerman documentation: https://github.com/walkor/workerman-manual

You can also select a diferent cli php.ini directly:

php -c cli-php.ini server.php start

Help with session issues

I was using this lib internally, for more than 2 years, to run legacy apps with Workerman.

We made it for APIs and microservices. So the session is not well tested.

Login progress

It's working with Symfony and Laravel

Laravel Orchid admin panel.
