This directory contains the Protocol Buffers runtime implementation via both a
|
||
pure PHP package and a native c extension. The pure PHP package is intended to
|
||
provide usability to wider range of PHP platforms, while the c extension is
|
||
intended to provide higher performance. Both implementations provide the same
|
||
runtime APIs and share the same generated code. Users don’t need to re-generate
|
||
code for the same proto definition when they want to switch the implementation
|
||
later.
|
||
|
||
Both implementations make use of generated PHP code that defines message and
|
||
enum types in PHP. We strongly recommend using protoc's PHP generation support
|
||
with .proto files. The build process in this directory only installs the
|
||
extension/package; you need to install protoc as well to have PHP code
|
||
generation functionality.
|
||
|
||
## Requirements
|
||
|
||
To use PHP runtime library requires:
|
||
|
||
- C extension: PHP 5.5.x or 5.6.x.
|
||
- PHP package: PHP 5.5, 5.6 or 7.
|
||
|
||
## Installation
|
||
|
||
### C Extension
|
||
|
||
#### Prerequirements
|
||
|
||
To install the c extension, the following tools are needed:
|
||
* autoconf
|
||
* automake
|
||
* libtool
|
||
* make
|
||
* gcc
|
||
* pear
|
||
* pecl
|
||
|
||
On Ubuntu, you can install them with:
|
||
```
|
||
sudo apt-get install php-pear php5-dev autoconf automake libtool make gcc
|
||
```
|
||
On other platforms, please use the corresponding package managing tool to
|
||
install them before proceeding.
|
||
|
||
#### Installation from Source (Building extension)
|
||
|
||
To build the c extension, run the following command:
|
||
```
|
||
cd ext/google/protobuf
|
||
pear package
|
||
sudo pecl install protobuf-{VERSION}.tgz
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Installation from PECL
|
||
|
||
When we release a version of Protocol Buffers, we will upload the extension to
|
||
[PECL](https://pecl.php.net/). To use this pre-packaged extension, simply
|
||
install it as you would any other extension:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
sudo pecl install protobuf-{VERSION}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### PHP Package
|
||
|
||
#### Installation from composer
|
||
|
||
Simply add "google/protobuf" to the 'require' section of composer.json in your
|
||
project.
|
||
|
||
### Protoc
|
||
|
||
Once the extension or package is installed, if you wish to generate PHP code
|
||
from a `.proto` file, you will also want to install the Protocol Buffers
|
||
compiler (protoc), as described in this repository's main `README` file. The
|
||
version of `protoc` included in the latest release supports the `--php_out`
|
||
option to generate PHP code:
|
||
```
|
||
protoc --php_out=out_dir test.proto
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Usage
|
||
|
||

||
Known Issues
|
||
------------
|
||
|
||
* Missing native support for well known types.
|
||
* Missing support for proto2.
|
||
* No API provided for clear/copy messages.
|
||
* No API provided for encoding/decoding with stream.
|
||
* Map fields may not be garbage-collected if there is cycle reference.
|
||
* No debug information for messages in c extension.
|
||
* HHVM not tested.
|
||
* C extension not tested on windows, mac, php 7.0.
|
||
* Message name cannot be Empty.
