JsonRPC PHP Client and Server
=============================
A simple Json-RPC client/server that just works.
Features
--------
- JSON-RPC 2.0 protocol only
- The server support batch requests and notifications
- Authentication and IP based client restrictions
- Minimalist: there is only 2 files
- Fully unit tested
- License: MIT
Requirements
------------
- The only dependency is the cURL extension
- PHP >= 5.3

Installation with Composer
--------------------------
```bash
composer require fguillot/json-rpc dev-master
```
Examples
--------
### Server
Callback binding:
```php
<?php
use JsonRPC\Server;
$server = new Server;
// Procedures registration
$server->register('addition', function ($a, $b) {
return $a + $b;
});
$server->register('random', function ($start, $end) {
return mt_rand($start, $end);
});
// Return the response to the client
echo $server->execute();
?>
```
Class/Method binding:
```php
<?php
use JsonRPC\Server;
class Api
{
public function doSomething($arg1, $arg2 = 3)
{
return $arg1 + $arg2;
}
}
$server = new Server;
// Bind the method Api::doSomething() to the procedure myProcedure
$server->bind('myProcedure', 'Api', 'doSomething');
// Use a class instance instead of the class name
$server->bind('mySecondProcedure', new Api, 'doSomething');
// The procedure and the method are the same
$server->bind('doSomething', 'Api');
// Attach the class, client will be able to call directly Api::doSomething()
$server->attach(new Api);
echo $server->execute();
?>
```
Before callback:
Before each procedure execution, a custom method can be called.
This method receive the following arguments: `$username, $password, $class, $method`.
```php
<?php
use JsonRPC\Server;
use JsonRPC\AuthenticationFailure;
class Api
{
public function beforeProcedure($username, $password, $class, $method)
{
if ($login_condition_failed) {
throw new AuthenticationFailure('Wrong credentials!');
}
}
public function addition($a, $b)
{
return $a + $b;
}
}
$server = new Server;
$server->authentication(['myuser' => 'mypassword']);
// Register the before callback
$server->before('beforeProcedure');
$server->attach(new Api);
echo $server->execute();
?>
```
You can use this method to implements a custom authentication system or anything else.
If you would like to reject the authentication, you can throw the exception `JsonRPC\AuthenticationFailure`.
### Client
Example with positional parameters:
```php
<?php
use JsonRPC\Client;
$client = new Client('http://localhost/server.php');
$result = $client->execute('addition', [3, 5]);
var_dump($result);
```
Example with named arguments:
```php
<?php
use JsonRPC\Client;
$client = new Client('http://localhost/server.php');
$result = $client->execute('random', ['end' => 10, 'start' => 1]);
var_dump($result);
```
Arguments are called in the right order.
Examples with shortcut methods:
```php
<?php
use JsonRPC\Client;
$client = new Client('http://localhost/server.php');
$result = $client->random(50, 100);
var_dump($result);
```
The example above use positional arguments for the request and this one use named arguments:
```php
$result = $client->random(['end' => 10, 'start' => 1]);
```
### Client batch requests
Call several procedures in a single HTTP request:
```php
<?php
use JsonRPC\Client;
$client = new Client('http://localhost/server.php');
$results = $client->batch()
->foo(['arg1' => 'bar'])
->random(1, 100)
->add(4, 3)
->execute('add', [2, 5])
->send();
print_r($results);
```
All results are stored at the same position of the call.
### Client exceptions
- `BadFunctionCallException`: Procedure not found on the server
- `InvalidArgumentException`: Wrong procedure arguments
- `RuntimeException`: Protocol error, authentication failure or connection failure, the message describe the exact error
### Enable client debugging
You can enable the debug to see the JSON request and response:
```php
<?php
use JsonRPC\Client;
$client = new Client('http://localhost/server.php');
$client->debug = true;
```
The debug output is sent to the PHP's system logger.
You can configure the log destination in your `php.ini`.
Output example:
```json
==> Request:
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"method": "removeCategory",
"id": 486782327,
"params": [
1
]
}
==> Response:
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 486782327,
"result": true
}
```
### IP based client restrictions
The server can allow only some IP adresses:
```php
<?php
use JsonRPC\Server;
$server = new Server;
// IP client restrictions
$server->allowHosts(['192.168.0.1', '127.0.0.1']);
// Procedures registration
[...]
// Return the response to the client
echo $server->execute();
```
If the client is blocked, you got a 403 Forbidden HTTP response.
### HTTP Basic Authentication
If you use HTTPS, you can allow client by using a username/password.
```php
<?php
use JsonRPC\Server;
$server = new Server;
// List of users to allow
$server->authentication(['user1' => 'password1', 'user2' => 'password2']);
// Procedures registration
[...]
// Return the response to the client
echo $server->execute();
```
On the client, set credentials like that:
```php
<?php
use JsonRPC\Client;
$client = new Client('http://localhost/server.php');
$client->authentication('user1', 'password1');
```
If the authentication failed, the client throw a RuntimeException.
Using an alternative authentication header:
```php
use JsonRPC\Server;
$server = new Server;
$server->setAuthenticationHeader('X-Authentication');
$server->authentication(['myusername' => 'mypassword']);
```
The example above will use the HTTP header `X-Authentication` instead of the standard `Authorization: Basic [BASE64_CREDENTIALS]`.
The username/password values need be encoded in base64: `base64_encode('username:password')`.
### Exceptions
If you want to send an error to the client you can throw an exception.
You should configure which exceptions should be relayed to the client first:
```php
<?php
use JsonRPC\Server;
class MyException extends RuntimeException {};
$server = new Server;
// Exceptions that should be relayed to the client, if they occur
$server->attachException('MyException');
// Procedures registration
[...]
// Return the response to the client
echo $server->execute();
```
Then you can throw that exception inside your procedure:
```
throw new MyException("An error occured", 123);
```
To relay all exceptions regardless of type, leave out the exception class name:
```
$server->attachException();
```
