A toolkit for flexible actor models in PHP, empowering the PHP ecosystem.
requires PHP 8.3 and swoole / open swoole.
and Protocol Buffers for message serialization. / not supported other serialization formats yet.
Documentation is under preparation.
do not use this in production yet.
sample web application / phluxor-http-application-samples
demonstrate the use of Phluxor
// 日本語
PhluxorはPHPでのアクターモデルを実現するためのツールキットです。
PHP 8.3 と swoole / open swoole が必要です。
メッセージのシリアライズには、Protocol Buffersを利用します。/ 他のシリアライズフォーマットはまだサポートされていません。
本番環境での使用はまだお勧めしません。
$ composer require phluxor/phluxor:dev-main
- actor model
- actor lifecycle
- supervision
- actor registry
- actor messaging
- become/unbecome
- mailbox / dispatcher
- event stream
- future
- persistent actors (in memory / mysql)
- OpenTelemetry support (metrics)
- router / round-robin, broadcast, scatter-gather, etc.
- open telemetry support (tracing)
- virtual actors / cluster support
now local actors are supported, and remote actors are in progress.
exception handling is done by the actor system, and the actor can be supervised by parent , root actors.
OneForOneStrategy
AllForOneStrategy
ExponentialBackoffStrategy
RestartStrategy
like a akka http, you can use it with a simple API.
use mezzio / mezzio-swoole / phluxor.
and you can use it with swoole / open swoole.

send message to actor.

use App\Message\EventExists;

switch (true) {
case $msg instanceof EventDescription:
try {
$result = $context->spawnNamed(
Props::fromProducer(fn() => new TicketSeller()),
$msg->name

$context->send($result->getRef(), new Add($msg->name, $msg->tickets));
$context->respond(new EventCreated($msg->name, $msg->tickets));
} catch (SpawnErrorException $e) {
$context->respond(new EventExists());
}
break;
}
}
}
}
an actor can change its behavior by become
and unbecome
methods.
example:
one, other are the behavior methods.
<?php
declare(strict_types=1);
namespace Acme;
use Phluxor\ActorSystem\Behavior;
use Phluxor\ActorSystem\Context\ContextInterface;
use Phluxor\ActorSystem\Message\ActorInterface;
use Phluxor\ActorSystem\Message\ReceiveFunction;
class EchoSetBehaviorActor implements ActorInterface
{
private Behavior $behavior;
public function __construct()
{
$this->behavior = new Behavior();
$this->behavior->become(
new ReceiveFunction(
fn(ContextInterface $context) => $this->one($context)
)
);
}
public function receive(ContextInterface $context): void
{
$this->behavior->receive($context);
}
public function one(ContextInterface $context): void
{
if ($context->message() instanceof BehaviorMessage) {
$this->behavior->become(
new ReceiveFunction(
fn(ContextInterface $context) => $this->other($context)
)
);
}
}
public function other(ContextInterface $context): void
{
if ($context->message() instanceof EchoRequest) {
$context->respond(new EchoResponse());
}
}
}
<?php
declare(strict_types=1);
use Acme\BehaviorMessage;
use Acme\EchoSetBehaviorActor;
use Acme\EchoRequest;
use Phluxor\ActorSystem;
use Phluxor\ActorSystem\ActorContext;
use Phluxor\ActorSystem\Props;
use function Swoole\Coroutine\go;
use function Swoole\Coroutine\run;
function main(): void
{
run(function () {
$system = ActorSystem::create();
go(function (ActorSystem $system) {
$pid = $system->root()->spawn(
Props::fromProducer(
fn() => new EchoSetBehaviorActor()
)
);
$system->root()->send($pid, new BehaviorMessage());
$future = $system->root()->requestFuture($pid, new EchoRequest(), 1);
var_dump($future->result());
$system->root()->stop($pid);
}, $system);
});
}
パーシステンスアクターは、以前の状態から復元できるアクターです。
永続化に利用するデータベースは、お使いの環境などに合わせて自由にアダプターを実装することができます。
デフォルトではインメモリとMySQLが実装されています。
メッセージのシリアライズには、Protocol Buffersを利用しますので、事前にProtocol Buffersのファイルを用意しておく必要があります。
以下はサンプルのProtocol Buffersファイルです。
persistent actors are actors that can be restored from the previous state.
you can implement an adapter freely according to your environment for the database used for persistence.
by default, in-memory and MySQL are implemented.
Protocol Buffers is used for message serialization, so you need to prepare a Protocol Buffers file in advance.
for example, the protocol buffers file is like this.
syntax = "proto3";
package Acme.Persistence.ProtoBuf;
option php_namespace = "Acme\\Persistence\\ProtoBuf";
option php_metadata_namespace = "Acme\\Metadata";
message Message {
string message = 1;
}
message Snapshot {
string message = 1;
}
詳しい永続化の使い方は、永続アクターのサンプルを参照してください。Persistence / MySQL
for example, the persistent actor is like this. Persistence / MySQL
use Phluxor\Persistence\Mixin
trait and implement Phluxor\Persistence\PersistentInterface
.
<?php
declare(strict_types=1);
namespace Acme\Persistence;
use Phluxor\ActorSystem\Context\ContextInterface;
use Phluxor\ActorSystem\Message\ActorInterface;
use Phluxor\Persistence\Message\RequestSnapshot;
use Phluxor\Persistence\Mixin;
use Phluxor\Persistence\PersistentInterface;
use Acme\Persistence\ProtoBuf\Message;
use Acme\Persistence\ProtoBuf\Snapshot;
class InMemoryTestActor implements ActorInterface, PersistentInterface
{
use Mixin;
private string $state = '';
public function receive(ContextInterface $context): void
{
$msg = $context->message();
switch (true) {
case $msg instanceof RequestSnapshot:
$this->persistenceSnapshot(new TestSnapshot(['message' => $this->state]));
break;
case $msg instanceof TestSnapshot:
$this->state = $msg->getMessage();
break;
case $msg instanceof TestMessage:
if (!$this->recovering()) {
$this->persistenceReceive($msg);
}
$this->state = $msg->getMessage();
break;
case $msg instanceof Query:
$context->respond($this->state);
break;
}
}
}
