Installation
The recommended way to install the library is through Composer:
composer require rybakit/msgpack
Usage
Packing
To pack values you can either use an instance of a Packer
:
use MessagePack\Packer;
$packer = new Packer();
...
$packed = $packer->pack($value);
or call a static method on the MessagePack
class:
use MessagePack\MessagePack;
...
$packed = MessagePack::pack($value);
In the examples above, the method pack
automatically packs a value depending on its type. However, not all PHP types can be uniquely translated to MessagePack types. For example, the MessagePack format defines map
and array
types, which are represented by a single array
type in PHP. By default, the packer will pack a PHP array as a MessagePack array if it has sequential numeric keys, starting from 0
and as a MessagePack map otherwise:
$mpArr1 = $packer->pack([1, 2]); // MP array [1, 2]
$mpArr2 = $packer->pack([0 => 1, 1 => 2]); // MP array [1, 2]
$mpMap1 = $packer->pack([0 => 1, 2 => 3]); // MP map {0: 1, 2: 3}
$mpMap2 = $packer->pack([1 => 2, 2 => 3]); // MP map {1: 2, 2: 3}
$mpMap3 = $packer->pack(['a' => 1, 'b' => 2]); // MP map {a: 1, b: 2}
However, sometimes you need to pack a sequential array as a MessagePack map. To do this, use the packMap
method:
$mpMap = $packer->packMap([1, 2]); // {0: 1, 1: 2}
Here is a list of type-specific packing methods:
$packer->packNil(); // MP nil
$packer->packBool(true); // MP bool
$packer->packInt(42); // MP int
$packer->packFloat(M_PI); // MP float (32 or 64)
$packer->packFloat32(M_PI); // MP float 32
$packer->packFloat64(M_PI); // MP float 64
$packer->packStr('foo'); // MP str
$packer->packBin("\x80"); // MP bin
$packer->packArray([1, 2]); // MP array
$packer->packMap(['a' => 1]); // MP map
$packer->packExt(1, "\xaa"); // MP ext
Check the "Custom types" section below on how to pack custom types.
Packing options
The Packer
object supports a number of bitmask-based options for fine-tuning the packing process (defaults are in bold):
Name | Description |
---|---|
FORCE_STR |
Forces PHP strings to be packed as MessagePack UTF-8 strings |
FORCE_BIN |
Forces PHP strings to be packed as MessagePack binary data |
DETECT_STR_BIN |
Detects MessagePack str/bin type automatically |
FORCE_ARR |
Forces PHP arrays to be packed as MessagePack arrays |
FORCE_MAP |
Forces PHP arrays to be packed as MessagePack maps |
DETECT_ARR_MAP |
Detects MessagePack array/map type automatically |
FORCE_FLOAT32 |
Forces PHP floats to be packed as 32-bits MessagePack floats |
FORCE_FLOAT64 |
Forces PHP floats to be packed as 64-bits MessagePack floats |
The type detection mode (
DETECT_STR_BIN
/DETECT_ARR_MAP
) adds some overhead which can be noticed when you pack large (16- and 32-bit) arrays or strings. However, if you know the value type in advance (for example, you only work with UTF-8 strings or/and associative arrays), you can eliminate this overhead by forcing the packer to use the appropriate type, which will save it from running the auto-detection routine. Another option is to explicitly specify the value type. The library provides 2 auxiliary classes for this, Map and Bin. Check the "Custom types" section below for details.
Examples:
use MessagePack\Packer;
use MessagePack\PackOptions;
// detect str/bin type and pack PHP 64-bit floats (doubles) to MP 32-bit floats
$packer = new Packer(PackOptions::DETECT_STR_BIN | PackOptions::FORCE_FLOAT32);
// these will throw MessagePack\Exception\InvalidOptionException
$packer = new Packer(PackOptions::FORCE_STR | PackOptions::FORCE_BIN);
$packer = new Packer(PackOptions::FORCE_FLOAT32 | PackOptions::FORCE_FLOAT64);
Unpacking
To unpack data you can either use an instance of a BufferUnpacker
:
use MessagePack\BufferUnpacker;
$unpacker = new BufferUnpacker();
...
$unpacker->reset($packed);
$value = $unpacker->unpack();
or call a static method on the MessagePack
class:
use MessagePack\MessagePack;
...
$value = MessagePack::unpack($packed);
If the packed data is received in chunks (e.g. when reading from a stream), use the tryUnpack
method, which attempts to unpack data and returns an array of unpacked messages (if any) instead of throwing an InsufficientDataException:
while ($chunk = ...) {
$unpacker->append($chunk);
if ($messages = $unpacker->tryUnpack()) {
return $messages;
}
}
If you want to unpack from a specific position in a buffer, use seek
:
$unpacker->seek(42); // set position equal to 42 bytes
$unpacker->seek(-8); // set position to 8 bytes before the end of the buffer
To skip bytes from the current position, use skip
:
$unpacker->skip(10); // set position to 10 bytes ahead of the current position
To get the number of remaining (unread) bytes in the buffer:
$unreadBytesCount = $unpacker->getRemainingCount();
To check whether the buffer has unread data:
$hasUnreadBytes = $unpacker->hasRemaining();
If needed, you can remove already read data from the buffer by calling:
$releasedBytesCount = $unpacker->release();
With the read
method you can read raw (packed) data:
$packedData = $unpacker->read(2); // read 2 bytes
Besides the above methods BufferUnpacker
provides type-specific unpacking methods, namely:
$unpacker->unpackNil(); // PHP null
$unpacker->unpackBool(); // PHP bool
$unpacker->unpackInt(); // PHP int
$unpacker->unpackFloat(); // PHP float
$unpacker->unpackStr(); // PHP UTF-8 string
$unpacker->unpackBin(); // PHP binary string
$unpacker->unpackArray(); // PHP sequential array
$unpacker->unpackMap(); // PHP associative array
$unpacker->unpackExt(); // PHP MessagePack\Type\Ext object
Unpacking options
The BufferUnpacker
object supports a number of bitmask-based options for fine-tuning the unpacking process (defaults are in bold):
Name | Description |
---|---|
BIGINT_AS_STR |
Converts overflowed integers to strings [1] |
BIGINT_AS_GMP |
Converts overflowed integers to GMP objects [2] |
BIGINT_AS_DEC |
Converts overflowed integers to Decimal\Decimal objects [3] |
1. The binary MessagePack format has unsigned 64-bit as its largest integer data type, but PHP does not support such integers, which means that an overflow can occur during unpacking.
2. Make sure the GMP extension is enabled.
3. Make sure the Decimal extension is enabled.
Examples:
use MessagePack\BufferUnpacker;
use MessagePack\UnpackOptions;
$packedUint64 = "\xcf"."\xff\xff\xff\xff"."\xff\xff\xff\xff";
$unpacker = new BufferUnpacker($packedUint64);
var_dump($unpacker->unpack()); // string(20) "18446744073709551615"
$unpacker = new BufferUnpacker($packedUint64, UnpackOptions::BIGINT_AS_GMP);
var_dump($unpacker->unpack()); // object(GMP) {...}
$unpacker = new BufferUnpacker($packedUint64, UnpackOptions::BIGINT_AS_DEC);
var_dump($unpacker->unpack()); // object(Decimal\Decimal) {...}
Custom types
In addition to the basic types, the library provides functionality to serialize and deserialize arbitrary types. This can be done in several ways, depending on your use case. Let's take a look at them.
Type objects
If you need to serialize an instance of one of your classes, the best way to do it is to implement the CanBePacked interface in the class. A good example of such a class is the Map type class that comes with the library. This type is useful when you want to explicitly specify that a given PHP array should be packed as a MessagePack map without triggering an automatic type detection routine:
use MessagePack\Packer;
use MessagePack\Type\Map;
$packer = new Packer();
$packedMap = $packer->pack(new Map([1, 2, 3]));
$packedArray = $packer->pack([1, 2, 3]);
More type examples can be found in the src/Type directory.
Type transformers
As with type objects, type transformers are only responsible for serializing values. They should be used when you need to serialize a value that does not implement the CanBePacked interface. Examples of such values could be instances of built-in or third-party classes that you don't own, or non-objects such as resources.
A transformer class must implement the CanPack interface. To use a transformer, it must first be registered in the packer. Here is an example of how to serialize PHP streams into the MessagePack bin
format type using one of the supplied transformers, StreamTransformer:
use MessagePack\Packer;
use MessagePack\TypeTransformer\StreamTransformer;
$packer = new Packer(null, [new StreamTransformer()]);
$packedBin = $packer->pack(fopen('/path/to/file', 'r+'));
More type transformer examples can be found in the src/TypeTransformer directory.
Extensions
In contrast to the cases described above, extensions are intended to handle extension types and are responsible for serializing and deserializing values. An extension class must implement the Extension interface.
For example, to make the built-in PHP DateTime
objects first-class citizens in your code, you can create a corresponding extension, as shown in the example. Register the extension for both the packer and the unpacker with a unique extension type (an integer from 0 to 127) and you're ready to go:
use App\MessagePack\DateTimeExtension;
use MessagePack\BufferUnpacker;
use MessagePack\Packer;
$dateTimeExtension = new DateTimeExtension(42);
$packer = new Packer();
$packer = $packer->extendWith($dateTimeExtension);
$unpacker = new BufferUnpacker();
$unpacker = $unpacker->extendWith($dateTimeExtension);
$packedDate = $packer->pack(new DateTimeImmutable());
$originalDate = $unpacker->reset($packedDate)->unpack();
If you unpack a value from an extension that is not known to the unpacker, an Ext object will be returned. It can also be used to pack an extension:
use MessagePack\MessagePack;
use MessagePack\Type\Ext;
$packed = MessagePack::pack(new Ext(42, "\xaa"));
$ext = MessagePack::unpack($packed);
assert($ext->type === 42);
assert($ext->data === "\xaa");
More extension examples can be found in the examples/MessagePack directory.
To learn more about how extension types can be useful, check out this article.
Exceptions
If an error occurs during packing/unpacking, a PackingFailedException or an UnpackingFailedException will be thrown, respectively. In addition, an InsufficientDataException can be thrown during unpacking.
An InvalidOptionException will be thrown in case an invalid option (or a combination of mutually exclusive options) is used.
Tests
Run tests as follows:
vendor/bin/phpunit
Also, if you already have Docker installed, you can run the tests in a docker container. First, create a container:
./dockerfile.sh | docker build -t msgpack -
The command above will create a container named msgpack
with PHP 8.0 runtime. You may change the default runtime by defining the PHP_IMAGE
environment variable:
PHP_IMAGE='php:7.4-cli' ./dockerfile.sh | docker build -t msgpack -
See a list of various images here.
Then run the unit tests:
docker run --rm -v $PWD:/msgpack -w /msgpack msgpack
Fuzzing
To ensure that the unpacking works correctly with malformed/semi-malformed data, you can use a testing technique called Fuzzing. The library ships with a help file (target) for PHP-Fuzzer and can be used as follows:
php-fuzzer fuzz tests/fuzz_buffer_unpacker.php
Performance
To check performance, run:
php -n -dzend_extension=opcache.so \
-dpcre.jit=1 -dopcache.enable=1 -dopcache.enable_cli=1 \
tests/bench.php
