Basic usage

Example #1 Basic Gearman client and worker

This example shows a very simple client and worker. The client sends a string to the job server, and the worker reverses the string and sends it back. The job is performed synchronously.

<?php

# Create our client object.
$gmclient= new GearmanClient();

# Add default server (localhost).
$gmclient->addServer();

echo
"Sending job\n";

# Send reverse job
do
{
$result = $gmclient->doNormal("reverse", "Hello!");

# Check for various return packets and errors.
switch($gmclient->returnCode())
{
case
GEARMAN_WORK_DATA:
echo
"Data: $result\n";
break;
case
GEARMAN_WORK_STATUS:
list(
$numerator, $denominator)= $gmclient->doStatus();
echo
"Status: $numerator/$denominator complete\n";
break;
case
GEARMAN_WORK_FAIL:
echo
"Failed\n";
exit;
case
GEARMAN_SUCCESS:
echo
"Success: $result\n";
break;
default:
echo
"RET: " . $gmclient->returnCode() . "\n";
exit;
}
}
while(
$gmclient->returnCode() != GEARMAN_SUCCESS);

?>
<?php

echo "Starting\n";

# Create our worker object.
$gmworker= new GearmanWorker();

# Add default server (localhost).
$gmworker->addServer();

# Register function "reverse" with the server. Change the worker function to
# "reverse_fn_fast" for a faster worker with no output.
$gmworker->addFunction("reverse", "reverse_fn");

print
"Waiting for job...\n";
while(
$gmworker->work())
{
if (
$gmworker->returnCode() != GEARMAN_SUCCESS)
{
echo
"return_code: " . $gmworker->returnCode() . "\n";
break;
}
}

function
reverse_fn($job)
{
echo
"Received job: " . $job->handle() . "\n";

$workload = $job->workload();
$workload_size = $job->workloadSize();

echo
"Workload: $workload ($workload_size)\n";

# This status loop is not needed, just showing how it works
for ($x= 0; $x < $workload_size; $x++)
{
echo
"Sending status: " . ($x + 1) . "/$workload_size complete\n";
$job->sendStatus($x, $workload_size);
sleep(1);
}

$result= strrev($workload);
echo
"Result: $result\n";

# Return what we want to send back to the client.
return $result;
}

# A much simpler and less verbose version of the above function would be:
function reverse_fn_fast($job)
{
return
strrev($job->workload());
}

?>

Il precedente esempio visualizzerà qualcosa simile a:

% php reverse_worker.php
Starting
Waiting for job...
Received job: H:foo.local:36
Workload: Hello! (6)
Sending status: 1/6 complete
Sending status: 2/6 complete
Sending status: 3/6 complete
Sending status: 4/6 complete
Sending status: 5/6 complete
Sending status: 6/6 complete
Result: !olleH
% php reverse_client.php
Starting
Sending job
Status: 1/6 complete
Status: 2/6 complete
Status: 3/6 complete
Status: 4/6 complete
Status: 5/6 complete
Status: 6/6 complete
Success: !olleH

An example of a client is invalid. Progress will not be displayed on the client side, as doNormal method is synchronous.
Code will be executed only after the completion doNormal.
<?php
case GEARMAN_WORK_STATUS:
list(
$numerator, $denominator)= $gmclient->doStatus();
echo
"Status: $numerator/$denominator complete\n";
break;
?>
