Currently in order to get a value type of [ubyte] in PHP, iteration is
necessary which is not efficient. Helper __vector_as_bytes has been
implemented in order to return the byte arrays in PHP efficiently.
Appropriate methods also been added to use aforementioned method to return
the byte array. (e.g. get*Bytes()).
The reason the methods are named get*Bytes() and not for instance
get*ByteArray() is the fact that PHP doesn't support byte arrays and the
binary safe string implementation in PHP is used to simulate byte arrays
and since there is chance for PHP users to confuse this with PHP arrays
the name get*Bytes() has been chosen.
In the future __vector_as_bytebuffer() method can also be implemented to
return PHP implementation of ByteBuffer.
* codegen for all basic features: WIP (probably implemented all basic feature)
* JSON parsing: NO
* Simple mutation: NO
* Reflection: NO
* Buffer verifier: NO (will be add later)
* Testing: basic: Yes
* Testing: fuzz: Yes
* Performance: Not bad
* Platform: Supported Linux, OS X, Windows (has 32bit integer limitation)
* Engine Unity: No
flatc --php monster_test.fbs
<?php
//include neccessary files.
$fbb = new Google\FlatBuffers\FlatBufferBuilder(1);
$str = $fbb->createString("monster");
\MyGame\Example\Monster::startMonster($fbb);
\MyGame\Example\Monster::addHp($fbb, 80);
\MyGame\Example\Monster::addName($fbb, $str);
$mon = \MyGame\Example\Monster::endMonster($fbb);
$fbb->finish($mon);
echo $fbb->sizedByteArray();
PHP 5.4 higher
Currently, we do not register this library to packagist as still experimental and versioning problem.
If you intended to use flatbuffers with composer. add repostiories section to composer.json like below.
"repositories": [{
"type": "vcs",
"url": "https://github.com/google/flatbuffers"
}],
and just put google/flatbuffers.
"require": {
"google/flatbuffers": "*"
}
* PHP's integer is platform dependant. we strongly recommend use 64bit machine
and don't use uint, ulong types as prevent overflow issue.
ref: http://php.net/manual/en/language.types.integer.php
* php don't support float type. floating point numbers are always parsed as double precision internally.
ref: http://php.net/manual/en/language.types.float.php
* ByteBuffer is little bit slow implemnentation due to many chr/ord function calls. Especially encoding objects.
This is expected performance as PHP5 has parsing arguments overhead. probably we'll add C-extension.
Basically, PHP implementation respects Java and C# implementation.
Note: ByteBuffer and FlatBuffersBuilder class are not intended to use other purposes.
we may change internal API foreseeable future.
PSR-2, PSR-4 standards.
Implemented simple assertion class (respect JavaScript testcase implementation) as we prefer small code base.
this also keeps CI iteration speed.
we'll choose phpunit or something when the test cases grown.
