您可以使用这个库:https://github.com/stil/curl-easy

这很简单:

<?php
$request = new cURL\Request('http://yahoo.com/');
$request->getOptions()->set(CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

// Specify function to be called when your request is complete
$request->addListener('complete', function (cURL\Event $event) {
    $response = $event->response;
    $httpCode = $response->getInfo(CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
    $html = $response->getContent();
    echo "\nDone.\n";
});

// Loop below will run as long as request is processed
$timeStart = microtime(true);
while ($request->socketPerform()) {
    printf("Running time: %dms    \r", (microtime(true) - $timeStart)*1000);
    // Here you can do anything else, while your request is in progress
}

下面你可以看到上面例子的控制台输出。 它将显示简单的实时时钟，指示请求正在运行的时间:

截至2018年，Guzzle已经成为HTTP请求事实上的标准库，在几个现代框架中使用。它是用纯PHP编写的，不需要安装任何自定义扩展。

它可以很好地执行异步HTTP调用，甚至可以在需要执行100个HTTP调用，但不想一次运行超过5个的情况下将它们合并在一起。

并发请求示例

use GuzzleHttp\Client;
use GuzzleHttp\Promise;

$client = new Client(['base_uri' => 'http://httpbin.org/']);

// Initiate each request but do not block
$promises = [
    'image' => $client->getAsync('/image'),
    'png'   => $client->getAsync('/image/png'),
    'jpeg'  => $client->getAsync('/image/jpeg'),
    'webp'  => $client->getAsync('/image/webp')
];

// Wait on all of the requests to complete. Throws a ConnectException
// if any of the requests fail
$results = Promise\unwrap($promises);

// Wait for the requests to complete, even if some of them fail
$results = Promise\settle($promises)->wait();

// You can access each result using the key provided to the unwrap
// function.
echo $results['image']['value']->getHeader('Content-Length')[0]
echo $results['png']['value']->getHeader('Content-Length')[0]

看到http://docs.guzzlephp.org/en/stable/quickstart.html并发请求

/**

 *
 * @param string $filename              file to execute, relative to calling script
 * @param string $options               (optional) arguments to pass to file via the command line

function asyncInclude($filename, $options = '') {
    exec("/path/to/php -f {$filename} {$options} >> /dev/null &");
}

Symfony HttpClient是异步的https://symfony.com/doc/current/components/http_client.html。

例如，你可以

use Symfony\Component\HttpClient\HttpClient;

$client = HttpClient::create();
$response1 = $client->request('GET', 'https://website1');
$response2 = $client->request('GET', 'https://website1');
$response3 = $client->request('GET', 'https://website1');
//these 3 calls with return immediately
//but the requests will fire to the website1 webserver

$response1->getContent(); //this will block until content is fetched
$response2->getContent(); //same 
$response3->getContent(); //same

swoole扩展。https://github.com/matyhtf/swoole PHP的异步并发网络框架。

$client = new swoole_client(SWOOLE_SOCK_TCP, SWOOLE_SOCK_ASYNC);

$client->on("connect", function($cli) {
    $cli->send("hello world\n");
});

$client->on("receive", function($cli, $data){
    echo "Receive: $data\n";
});

$client->on("error", function($cli){
    echo "connect fail\n";
});

$client->on("close", function($cli){
    echo "close\n";
});

$client->connect('127.0.0.1', 9501, 0.5);

使用CURL设置低CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS来模拟请求中止 设置ignore_user_abort(true)在连接关闭后继续处理。

使用这种方法，不需要通过头文件和缓冲区来实现连接处理，这太依赖于操作系统，浏览器和PHP版本

主进程

function async_curl($background_process=''){

    //-------------get curl contents----------------

    $ch = curl_init($background_process);
    curl_setopt_array($ch, array(
        CURLOPT_HEADER => 0,
        CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER =>true,
        CURLOPT_NOSIGNAL => 1, //to timeout immediately if the value is < 1000 ms
        CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS => 50, //The maximum number of mseconds to allow cURL functions to execute
        CURLOPT_VERBOSE => 1,
        CURLOPT_HEADER => 1
    ));
    $out = curl_exec($ch);

    //-------------parse curl contents----------------

    //$header_size = curl_getinfo($ch, CURLINFO_HEADER_SIZE);
    //$header = substr($out, 0, $header_size);
    //$body = substr($out, $header_size);

    curl_close($ch);

    return true;
}

async_curl('http://example.com/background_process_1.php');

后台进程

ignore_user_abort(true);

//do something...

NB

如果希望cURL在不到一秒的时间内超时，可以使用 CURLOPT_TIMEOUT_MS，尽管在类unix上有一个bug/“特性” 如果值为<，则会导致libcurl立即超时。 1000毫秒，错误“cURL错误(28):超时已达”。的 这种行为的解释是: […] 解决方案是使用CURLOPT_NOSIGNAL禁用信号
