How does PHP implement message queue and asynchronous task processing?

With the development of the Internet, the number of concurrent visits to websites and applications is increasing. Many times we need to implement some time-consuming tasks, such as sending emails, processing large amounts of data, etc. If these tasks are processed when requesting and responding, it will cause the user to wait too long and affect the user experience. Message queues and asynchronous task processing can effectively solve this problem.

Message queue is a message delivery method. Its core idea is to put tasks or messages into the queue and then process these tasks or messages asynchronously. There are many mature message queue systems in PHP, such as RabbitMQ, Beanstalkd, etc. These systems have the characteristics of high reliability and strong scalability.

Let’s introduce how to use PHP to implement message queue and asynchronous task processing.

First, we need to install the message queue system. Taking RabbitMQ as an example, you can use composer to install the corresponding client.

composer require php-amqplib/php-amqplib

Next, you need to create a message publisher in PHP, which is responsible for pushing tasks to the message queue.

<?php
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

// 创建连接
$connection = new PhpAmqpLibConnectionAMQPStreamConnection('localhost', 5672, 'guest', 'guest');
$channel = $connection->channel();

// 定义队列
$channel->queue_declare('task_queue', false, true, false, false);

// 创建一个回调函数来处理任务
$callback = function ($msg) {
  echo "接收到任务：" . $msg->body . "
";
  // 模拟耗时任务
  sleep(3);
  echo "处理完任务：" . $msg->body . "
";
  // 手动确认任务完成
  $msg->delivery_info['channel']->basic_ack($msg->delivery_info['delivery_tag']);
};

// 设置预取计数（每次只处理一个任务）
$channel->basic_qos(null, 1, null);

// 监听队列并消费任务
$channel->basic_consume('task_queue', '', false, false, false, false, $callback);

// 不断监听队列直到没有任务为止
while ($channel->is_consuming()) {
  $channel->wait();
}

// 关闭连接
$channel->close();
$connection->close();
?>

In the above code, we first create a connection and declare a queue named "task_queue". Then a callback function is defined to process the task. After the processing is completed, the task completion is manually confirmed. Finally, use a while loop to continuously monitor the queue until there are no tasks left.

Next, let’s create a message consumer to perform time-consuming tasks.

<?php
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

// 创建连接
$connection = new PhpAmqpLibConnectionAMQPStreamConnection('localhost', 5672, 'guest', 'guest');
$channel = $connection->channel();

// 定义队列
$channel->queue_declare('task_queue', false, true, false, false);

// 设置预取计数（每次只处理一个任务）
$channel->basic_qos(null, 1, null);

// 创建一个回调函数来处理任务
$callback = function ($msg) {
  echo "接收到任务：" . $msg->body . "
";
  // 模拟耗时任务
  sleep(3);
  echo "处理完任务：" . $msg->body . "
";
  // 手动确认任务完成
  $msg->delivery_info['channel']->basic_ack($msg->delivery_info['delivery_tag']);
};

// 监听队列并消费任务
$channel->basic_consume('task_queue', '', false, false, false, false, $callback);

// 不断监听队列直到没有任务为止
while ($channel->is_consuming()) {
  $channel->wait();
}

// 关闭连接
$channel->close();
$connection->close();
?>

The above code is basically the same as the code of the message publisher, except that there is no manual operation of publishing tasks. Instead, it listens to the queue and processes it immediately once a task comes in.

Through the two scripts obtained above, we can put time-consuming tasks into the message queue without affecting the page response, and then let the consumer process these tasks asynchronously. This improves website performance and user experience.

In summary, PHP can implement asynchronous processing of time-consuming tasks through message queues and asynchronous task processing. At the same time, by using a mature message queue system, the reliability and scalability of tasks can be improved. I hope the above introduction will help you understand PHP's implementation of message queues and asynchronous task processing.
