This package provides an asynchronous HTTP client for PHP based on Amp. Its API simplifies standards-compliant HTTP resource traversal and RESTful web service consumption without obscuring the underlying protocol. The library manually implements HTTP over TCP sockets; as such it has no dependency on ext/curl.
- Supports HTTP/1 and HTTP/2
- Requests concurrently by default
- Pools persistent connections (keep-alive @ HTTP/1.1, multiplexing @ HTTP/2)
- Transparently follows redirects
- Decodes compressed entity bodies (gzip, deflate)
- Exposes headers and message data
- Streams entity bodies for memory management with large transfers
- Supports all standard and custom HTTP method verbs
- Simplifies HTTP form submissions
- Implements secure-by-default TLS (
https://) - Supports cookies and sessions
- Functions seamlessly behind HTTP proxies
This package can be installed as a Composer dependency.
composer require amphp/http-clientAdditionally, you might want to install the nghttp2 library to take advantage of FFI to speed up and reduce the memory usage on PHP 7.4.
