pg_get_notify

(PHP 4 >= 4.3.0, PHP 5, PHP 7)

pg_get_notifyGets SQL NOTIFY message

Descrierea

pg_get_notify ( resource $connection [, int $result_type ] ) : array

pg_get_notify() gets notifications generated by a NOTIFY SQL command. To receive notifications, the LISTEN SQL command must be issued.

Parametri

connection

PostgreSQL database connection resource.

result_type

An optional parameter that controls how the returned array is indexed. result_type is a constant and can take the following values: PGSQL_ASSOC, PGSQL_NUM and PGSQL_BOTH. Using PGSQL_NUM, pg_get_notify() will return an array with numerical indices, using PGSQL_ASSOC it will return only associative indices while PGSQL_BOTH, the default, will return both numerical and associative indices.

Valorile întoarse

An array containing the NOTIFY message name and backend PID. As of PHP 5.4.0 and if supported by the server, the array also contains the server version and the payload. Otherwise if no NOTIFY is waiting, then false is returned.

Exemple

Example #1 PostgreSQL NOTIFY message

<?php 
$conn 
pg_pconnect("dbname=publisher");
if (!
$conn) {
  echo 
"An error occurred.\n";
  exit;
}

// Listen 'author_updated' message from other processes
pg_query($conn'LISTEN author_updated;');
$notify pg_get_notify($conn);
if (!
$notify) {
  echo 
"No messages\n";
} else {
  
print_r($notify);
}
?>

Instant yet Simple PHP notification with HTML5 Server-Sent Events

sse.php
<?php
$dbconn
= new PDO("pgsql:host=localhost;dbname=mydb", "pduser", "userpass");
$dbconn->exec('LISTEN "channel_name"');   // those doublequotes are very important

header("X-Accel-Buffering: no"); // disable ngnix webServer buffering
header("Content-Type: text/event-stream");
header("Cache-Control: no-cache");
ob_end_flush();  // close PHP output buffering
$inc=0;

while (
1) {
 
$result = "";
 
// wait for one Notify 10seconds instead of using sleep(10)
 
$result = $dbconn->pgsqlGetNotify(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC, 10000);

  if (
$result ) {
        echo
"id: $inc\ndata: ".stripslashes(json_encode($result))."\n\n";
       
$inc++;
  }

 
flush();
}
?>

Tested with HTML+JS sample file from Mozilla web site (ssedemo.php)

It appears that pg_get_notify does not distinguish between no message waiting and a failure when checking - both seem to return FALSE.

I had to add a pg_check_connection(...) before pg_get_notify to check the connection is still alive (it's quite likely to be a long-standing connection with pg_get_notify as you'll be polling waiting for something to happen). In my case the remote database server had a hiccup, and without pg_check_connection the listeners failed to notice, so never saw later notifications.
