Bindings for the Zend API to build PHP extensions natively in Rust. Inspired by [killertux/solder](https://github.com/killertux/solder) and its predecessors.

## Documentation
We are currently unable to deploy our documentation to `docs.rs` due to the crate requiring PHP 8.0, which is unavailable in the default Ubuntu repositories.
Documentation can be viewed [here](https://davidcole1340.github.io/ext-php-rs/). It is generated from the latest `master` branch. Documentation will be moved to `docs.rs` when Ubuntu updates its repositories
to PHP 8.0.

- [x] Class implementation
- [x] Class methods
2021-05-21 05:12:35 +02:00
- [x] Class properties
2021-04-02 07:18:08 +02:00
- [x] Class constants

2021-04-02 07:18:08 +02:00
- [x] Calling PHP functions
Implemented classes (#17) * Add PHP thread safety to build matrix * Revert "Add PHP thread safety to build matrix" This reverts commit 7de868e6b6e329b87c412af8daf61cba1a3e29c5. * Fixed arguments not being reconized by PHP * Added function to create interned Zend string * Changed statup/shutdown function types to Rust types Prevents users having to import from bindings * Added flags for classes * WIP: class builder * Added properties to classes * Added class constants * Added PHP base extensions Added class inheritance * Fixed memory leak with constants Created C wrapper which is compiled and linked in the `build.rs` script. In the process removed the `build_id()` function as now we can just export the macro via a function which is defined in `wrapper.c`. * Fixed lint issue * Added functions to set zval as different strings Regular strings, persistent strings and interned strings * Updated README with requirements * Fixed lint issues * Changed properties to use proper function * Free zend string when it is changed for a persistent one * WIP: overriding zend objects * Added comments to the top of modules. * Fixed some comments * Initialize hash map with initial size when converting from HashMap and Vec * Removed unused imports * WIP: object overrides * Added DerefMut implementation for ZendClassObject Tidied up lints that clippy was complaining about, removed debugging statements. * Fixed pointer dereference error in macro * Added missing comments for trait * All functions now take mutable references vs ptr Removed SetZval implementation for *mut Zval. Made bindings public, removed duplicate bindings. Fixed `create_object` handler not working. Note to self: smaller commits. * Showcase ability to use shared object * WIP: debugging property errors Changed `function` to `method` in classes Fixed doctest for `c_str` * Disabled class properties temporarily See #16 * Initialize args array with size

See the following links for the dependency crate requirements:
- [`cc`](https://github.com/alexcrichton/cc-rs#compile-time-requirements)
- [`bindgen`](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-bindgen/requirements.html)
## Usage
This project only works for PHP >= 8.0 (for now). Due to the fact that the PHP extension system relies heavily on C macros (which cannot be exported to Rust easily), structs have to be hard coded in.

There is only inline documentation for the time being. Starting by creating a C extension is a good start as well.
Check out one of the example projects:
- [ext-skel](example/skel) - Testbed for testing the library. Check out previous commits as well to see what else is possible.
- [opus-php](https://github.com/davidcole1340/opus-php/tree/rewrite_rs) - Work-in-progress extension to use the Opus library in PHP.
