PHP-gRPC library

Unofficial work of PHP gRPC implementation for asynchronous calls. The implementation is taken from @arnaud-lb php-async branch.

Here lies the documentation to interact with my own grpc binding library.

Asynchronous calls

PHP does not have an event-loop, therefore user-space event loop is required to check if a call is completed. The following must be called periodically:

Call::drainCompletionQueue(PHP_INT_MIN);

The first parameter specifies the time to wait for any queue to complete. In this case, the completion queue will check if any calls is complete once.

Client gRPC calls

To establish a bidirectional call, user must wait for the connection to be established to the remote server before sending any messages. This can be achieved by providing a callback to ClientCallInterface::onClientReady(Closure). Alternatively, ClientCallInterface::isReady() can be used to check if the call is ready to send any message to the remote server.
