|
|
|
|
|
|
## Quick Start
|
|
|
|
A *promise* represents the eventual result of an asynchronous operation. The
|
|
primary way of interacting with a promise is through its `then` method, which
|
|
registers callbacks to receive either a promise's eventual value or the reason
|
|
why the promise cannot be fulfilled.
|
|
|
|
### Callbacks
|
|
|
|
Callbacks are registered with the `then` method by providing an optional
|
|
`$onFulfilled` followed by an optional `$onRejected` function.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
use GuzzleHttp\Promise\Promise;
|
|
|
|
$promise = new Promise();
|
|
$promise->then(
|
|
// $onFulfilled
|
|
function ($value) {
|
|
echo 'The promise was fulfilled.';
|
|
},
|
|
// $onRejected
|
|
function ($reason) {
|
|
echo 'The promise was rejected.';
|
|
}
|
|
);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
*Resolving* a promise means that you either fulfill a promise with a *value* or
|
|
reject a promise with a *reason*. Resolving a promise triggers callbacks
|
|
registered with the promise's `then` method. These callbacks are triggered
|
|
only once and in the order in which they were added.
|
|
|
|
### Resolving a Promise
|
|
|
|
Promises are fulfilled using the `resolve($value)` method. Resolving a promise
|
|
with any value other than a `GuzzleHttp\Promise\RejectedPromise` will trigger
|
|
all of the onFulfilled callbacks (resolving a promise with a rejected promise
|
|
will reject the promise and trigger the `$onRejected` callbacks).
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
use GuzzleHttp\Promise\Promise;
|
|
|
|
$promise = new Promise();
|
|
$promise
|
|
->then(function ($value) {
|
|
// Return a value and don't break the chain
|
|
return "Hello, " . $value;
|
|
})
|
|
// This then is executed after the first then and receives the value
|
|
// returned from the first then.
|
|
->then(function ($value) {
|
|
echo $value;
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
// Resolving the promise triggers the $onFulfilled callbacks and outputs
|
|
// "Hello, reader."
|
|
$promise->resolve('reader.');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Promise Forwarding
|
|
|
|
Promises can be chained one after the other. Each then in the chain is a new
|
|
promise. The return value of a promise is what's forwarded to the next
|
|
promise in the chain. Returning a promise in a `then` callback will cause the
|
|
subsequent promises in the chain to only be fulfilled when the returned promise
|
|
has been fulfilled. The next promise in the chain will be invoked with the
|
|
resolved value of the promise.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
use GuzzleHttp\Promise\Promise;
|
|
|
|
$promise = new Promise();
|
|
$nextPromise = new Promise();
|
|
|
|
$promise
|
|
->then(function ($value) use ($nextPromise) {
|
|
echo $value;
|
|
return $nextPromise;
|
|
})
|
|
->then(function ($value) {
|
|
echo $value;
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
// Triggers the first callback and outputs "A"
|
|
$promise->resolve('A');
|
|
// Triggers the second callback and outputs "B"
|
|
$nextPromise->resolve('B');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Promise Rejection
|
|
|
|
When a promise is rejected, the `$onRejected` callbacks are invoked with the
|
|
rejection reason.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
use GuzzleHttp\Promise\Promise;
|
|
|
|
$promise = new Promise();
|
|
$promise->then(null, function ($reason) {
|
|
echo $reason;
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
$promise->reject('Error!');
|
|
// Outputs "Error!"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Rejection Forwarding
|
|
|
|
If an exception is thrown in an `$onRejected` callback, subsequent
|
|
`$onRejected` callbacks are invoked with the thrown exception as the reason.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
use GuzzleHttp\Promise\Promise;
|
|
|
|
$promise = new Promise();
|
|
$promise->then(null, function ($reason) {
|
|
throw new Exception($reason);
|
|
})->then(null, function ($reason) {
|
|
assert($reason->getMessage() === 'Error!');
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
$promise->reject('Error!');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can also forward a rejection down the promise chain by returning a
|
|
`GuzzleHttp\Promise\RejectedPromise` in either an `$onFulfilled` or
|
|
`$onRejected` callback.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
use GuzzleHttp\Promise\Promise;
|
|
use GuzzleHttp\Promise\RejectedPromise;
|
|
|
|
$promise = new Promise();
|
|
$promise->then(null, function ($reason) {
|
|
return new RejectedPromise($reason);
|
|
})->then(null, function ($reason) {
|
|
assert($reason === 'Error!');
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
$promise->reject('Error!');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If an exception is not thrown in a `$onRejected` callback and the callback
|
|
does not return a rejected promise, downstream `$onFulfilled` callbacks are
|
|
invoked using the value returned from the `$onRejected` callback.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
use GuzzleHttp\Promise\Promise;
|
|
|
|
$promise = new Promise();
|
|
$promise
|
|
->then(null, function ($reason) {
|
|
return "It's ok";
|
|
})
|
|
->then(function ($value) {
|
|
assert($value === "It's ok");
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
$promise->reject('Error!');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Synchronous Wait
|
|
|
|
You can synchronously force promises to complete using a promise's `wait`
|
|
method. When creating a promise, you can provide a wait function that is used
|
|
to synchronously force a promise to complete. When a wait function is invoked
|
|
it is expected to deliver a value to the promise or reject the promise. If the
|
|
wait function does not deliver a value, then an exception is thrown. The wait
|
|
function provided to a promise constructor is invoked when the `wait` function
|
|
of the promise is called.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$promise = new Promise(function () use (&$promise) {
|
|
$promise->resolve('foo');
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
// Calling wait will return the value of the promise.
|
|
echo $promise->wait(); // outputs "foo"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If an exception is encountered while invoking the wait function of a promise,
|
|
the promise is rejected with the exception and the exception is thrown.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$promise = new Promise(function () use (&$promise) {
|
|
throw new Exception('foo');
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
$promise->wait(); // throws the exception.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Calling `wait` on a promise that has been fulfilled will not trigger the wait
|
|
function. It will simply return the previously resolved value.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$promise = new Promise(function () { die('this is not called!'); });
|
|
$promise->resolve('foo');
|
|
echo $promise->wait(); // outputs "foo"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Calling `wait` on a promise that has been rejected will throw an exception. If
|
|
the rejection reason is an instance of `\Exception` the reason is thrown.
|
|
Otherwise, a `GuzzleHttp\Promise\RejectionException` is thrown and the reason
|
|
can be obtained by calling the `getReason` method of the exception.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$promise = new Promise();
|
|
$promise->reject('foo');
|
|
$promise->wait();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'GuzzleHttp\Promise\RejectionException' with message 'The promise was rejected with value: foo'
|
|
|
|
### Unwrapping a Promise
|
|
|
|
When synchronously waiting on a promise, you are joining the state of the
|
|
promise into the current state of execution (i.e., return the value of the
|
|
promise if it was fulfilled or throw an exception if it was rejected). This is
|
|
called "unwrapping" the promise. Waiting on a promise will by default unwrap
|
|
the promise state.
|
|
|
|
You can force a promise to resolve and *not* unwrap the state of the promise
|
|
by passing `false` to the first argument of the `wait` function:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$promise = new Promise();
|
|
$promise->reject('foo');
|
|
// This will not throw an exception. It simply ensures the promise has
|
|
// been resolved.
|
|
$promise->wait(false);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
When unwrapping a promise, the resolved value of the promise will be waited
|
|
upon until the unwrapped value is not a promise. This means that if you resolve
|
|
promise A with a promise B and unwrap promise A, the value returned by the
|
|
wait function will be the value delivered to promise B.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: when you do not unwrap the promise, no value is returned.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Cancellation
|
|
|
|
You can cancel a promise that has not yet been fulfilled using the `cancel()`
|
|
method of a promise. When creating a promise you can provide an optional
|
|
cancel function that when invoked cancels the action of computing a resolution
|
|
of the promise.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## API
|
|
|
|
### Promise
|
|
|
|
When creating a promise object, you can provide an optional `$waitFn` and
|
|
`$cancelFn`. `$waitFn` is a function that is invoked with no arguments and is
|
|
expected to resolve the promise. `$cancelFn` is a function with no arguments
|
|
that is expected to cancel the computation of a promise. It is invoked when the
|
|
`cancel()` method of a promise is called.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
use GuzzleHttp\Promise\Promise;
|
|
|
|
$promise = new Promise(
|
|
function () use (&$promise) {
|
|
$promise->resolve('waited');
|
|
},
|
|
function () {
|
|
// do something that will cancel the promise computation (e.g., close
|
|
// a socket, cancel a database query, etc...)
|
|
}
|
|
);
|
|
|
|
assert('waited' === $promise->wait());
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A promise has the following methods:
|
|
|
|
- `then(callable $onFulfilled, callable $onRejected) : PromiseInterface`
|
|
|
|
Appends fulfillment and rejection handlers to the promise, and returns a new promise resolving to the return value of the called handler.
|
|
|
|
- `otherwise(callable $onRejected) : PromiseInterface`
|
|
|
|
Appends a rejection handler callback to the promise, and returns a new promise resolving to the return value of the callback if it is called, or to its original fulfillment value if the promise is instead fulfilled.
|
|
|
|
- `wait($unwrap = true) : mixed`
|
|
|
|
Synchronously waits on the promise to complete.
|
|
|
|
`$unwrap` controls whether or not the value of the promise is returned for a
|
|
fulfilled promise or if an exception is thrown if the promise is rejected.
|
|
This is set to `true` by default.
|
|
|
|
- `cancel()`
|
|
|
|
Attempts to cancel the promise if possible. The promise being cancelled and
|
|
the parent most ancestor that has not yet been resolved will also be
|
|
cancelled. Any promises waiting on the cancelled promise to resolve will also
|
|
be cancelled.
|
|
|
|
- `getState() : string`
|
|
|
|
Returns the state of the promise. One of `pending`, `fulfilled`, or
|
|
`rejected`.
|
|
|
|
- `resolve($value)`
|
|
|
|
Fulfills the promise with the given `$value`.
|
|
|
|
- `reject($reason)`
|
|
|
|
Rejects the promise with the given `$reason`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### FulfilledPromise
|
|
|
|
A fulfilled promise can be created to represent a promise that has been
|
|
fulfilled.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
use GuzzleHttp\Promise\FulfilledPromise;
|
|
|
|
$promise = new FulfilledPromise('value');
|
|
|
|
// Fulfilled callbacks are immediately invoked.
|
|
$promise->then(function ($value) {
|
|
echo $value;
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### RejectedPromise
|
|
|
|
A rejected promise can be created to represent a promise that has been
|
|
rejected.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
use GuzzleHttp\Promise\RejectedPromise;
|
|
|
|
$promise = new RejectedPromise('Error');
|
|
|
|
// Rejected callbacks are immediately invoked.
|
|
$promise->then(null, function ($reason) {
|
|
echo $reason;
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Promise Interoperability
|
|
|
|
This library works with foreign promises that have a `then` method. This means
|
|
you can use Guzzle promises with [React promises](https://github.com/reactphp/promise)
|
|
for example. When a foreign promise is returned inside of a then method
|
|
callback, promise resolution will occur recursively.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
// Create a React promise
|
|
$deferred = new React\Promise\Deferred();
|
|
$reactPromise = $deferred->promise();
|
|
|
|
// Create a Guzzle promise that is fulfilled with a React promise.
|
|
$guzzlePromise = new GuzzleHttp\Promise\Promise();
|
|
$guzzlePromise->then(function ($value) use ($reactPromise) {
|
|
// Do something something with the value...
|
|
// Return the React promise
|
|
return $reactPromise;
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Please note that wait and cancel chaining is no longer possible when forwarding
|
|
a foreign promise. You will need to wrap a third-party promise with a Guzzle
|
|
promise in order to utilize wait and cancel functions with foreign promises.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Event Loop Integration
|
|
|
|
In order to keep the stack size constant, Guzzle promises are resolved
|
|
asynchronously using a task queue. When waiting on promises synchronously, the
|
|
task queue will be automatically run to ensure that the blocking promise and
|
|
any forwarded promises are resolved. When using promises asynchronously in an
|
|
event loop, you will need to run the task queue on each tick of the loop. If
|
|
you do not run the task queue, then promises will not be resolved.
|
|
|
|
You can run the task queue using the `run()` method of the global task queue
|
|
instance.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
// Get the global task queue
|
|
$queue = GuzzleHttp\Promise\Utils::queue();
|
|
$queue->run();
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For example, you could use Guzzle promises with React using a periodic timer:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$loop = React\EventLoop\Factory::create();
|
|
$loop->addPeriodicTimer(0, [$queue, 'run']);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Implementation Notes
|
|
|
|
### Promise Resolution and Chaining is Handled Iteratively
|
|
|
|
By shuffling pending handlers from one owner to another, promises are
|
|
resolved iteratively, allowing for "infinite" then chaining.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
<?php
|
|
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
|
|
|
|
use GuzzleHttp\Promise\Promise;
|
|
|
|
$parent = new Promise();
|
|
$p = $parent;
|
|
|
|
for ($i = 0; $i < 1000; $i++) {
|
|
$p = $p->then(function ($v) {
|
|
// The stack size remains constant (a good thing)
|
|
echo xdebug_get_stack_depth() . ', ';
|
|
return $v + 1;
|
|
});
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
$parent->resolve(0);
|
|
var_dump($p->wait()); // int(1000)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
When a promise is fulfilled or rejected with a non-promise value, the promise
|
|
then takes ownership of the handlers of each child promise and delivers values
|
|
down the chain without using recursion.
|
|
|
|
When a promise is resolved with another promise, the original promise transfers
|
|
all of its pending handlers to the new promise. When the new promise is
|
|
eventually resolved, all of the pending handlers are delivered the forwarded
|
|
value.
|
|
|
|
### A Promise is the Deferred
|
|
|
|
Some promise libraries implement promises using a deferred object to represent
|
|
a computation and a promise object to represent the delivery of the result of
|
|
the computation. This is a nice separation of computation and delivery because
|
|
consumers of the promise cannot modify the value that will be eventually
|
|
delivered.
|
|
|
|
One side effect of being able to implement promise resolution and chaining
|
|
iteratively is that you need to be able for one promise to reach into the state
|
|
of another promise to shuffle around ownership of handlers. In order to achieve
|
|
this without making the handlers of a promise publicly mutable, a promise is
|
|
also the deferred value, allowing promises of the same parent class to reach
|
|
into and modify the private properties of promises of the same type. While this
|
|
does allow consumers of the value to modify the resolution or rejection of the
|
|
deferred, it is a small price to pay for keeping the stack size constant.
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
$promise = new Promise();
|
|
$promise->then(function ($value) { echo $value; });
|
|
// The promise is the deferred value, so you can deliver a value to it.
|
|
$promise->resolve('foo');
|
|
// prints "foo"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
A static API was first introduced in 1.4.0, in order to mitigate problems with
|
|
functions conflicting between global and local copies of the package. The
|
|
function API was removed in 2.0.0. A migration table has been provided here for
|
|
your convenience:
