php-mysql-replication

Pure PHP Implementation of MySQL replication protocol. This allow you to receive event like insert, update, delete with their data and raw SQL queries.

Based on a great work of creators：https://github.com/noplay/python-mysql-replication and https://github.com/fengxiangyun/mysql-replication

---

Note: Resolve these issues:

• Add regular expression matching support for DatabasesOnly or TablesOnly of Config.

  (new ConfigBuilder())->withTablesOnly(['log_\d+'])->build(); // Table `log_20240101`

• Resolve krowinski/php-mysql-replication#94, change static config properties to non-static.
• Add retry feature.

  (new ConfigBuilder())
    ->withRetry(-1) // Retry always.
    ->withRetry(0)  // Disable retry feature. (Default)
    ->withRetry(2)  // Retry twice.

• PHP 8.1,8.2 supports.

Installation

In you project

composer require moln/php-mysql-replication

or standalone

git clone https://github.com/moln/php-mysql-replication.git

composer install -o

Compatibility (based on integration tests)

• mysql 5.5
• mysql 5.6
• mysql 5.7
• mysql 8.0 (ONLY with mysql_native_password)
• mariadb 5.5
• mariadb 10.0
• mariadb 10.1
• probably percona versions as is based on native mysql

MySQL server settings

In your MySQL server configuration file you need to enable replication:

[mysqld]
server-id        = 1
log_bin          = /var/log/mysql/mysql-bin.log
expire_logs_days = 10
max_binlog_size  = 100M
binlog-format    = row #Very important if you want to receive write, update and delete row events

Mysql replication events explained https://dev.mysql.com/doc/internals/en/event-meanings.html

Mysql user privileges:

GRANT REPLICATION SLAVE, REPLICATION CLIENT ON *.* TO 'user'@'host';

GRANT SELECT ON `dbName`.* TO 'user'@'host';

Configuration

Use ConfigBuilder or ConfigFactory to create configuration. Available options:

'user' - your mysql user (mandatory)

'ip' or 'host' - your mysql host/ip (mandatory)

'password' - your mysql password (mandatory)

'port' - your mysql host port (default 3306)

'charset' - db connection charset (default utf8)

'gtid' - GTID marker(s) to start from (format 9b1c8d18-2a76-11e5-a26b-000c2976f3f3:1-177592)

'mariaDbGtid' - MariaDB GTID marker(s) to start from (format 1-1-3,0-1-88)

'slaveId' - script slave id for identification (SHOW SLAVE HOSTS)

'binLogFileName' - bin log file name to start from

'binLogPosition' - bin log position to start from

'eventsOnly' - array to listen on events (full list in ConstEventType.php file)

'eventsIgnore' - array to ignore events (full list in ConstEventType.php file)

'tablesOnly' - array to only listen on given tables (default all tables)

'databasesOnly' - array to only listen on given databases (default all databases)

'tableCacheSize' - some data are collected from information schema, this data is cached.

'custom' - if some params must be set in extended/implemented own classes

'heartbeatPeriod' - sets the interval in seconds between replication heartbeats. Whenever the master's binary log is updated with an event, the waiting period for the next heartbeat is reset. interval is a decimal value having the range 0 to 4294967 seconds and a resolution in milliseconds; the smallest nonzero value is 0.001. Heartbeats are sent by the master only if there are no unsent events in the binary log file for a period longer than interval.

Examples

All examples are available in the examples directory

This example will dump all replication events to the console:

Remember to change config for your user, host and password.

User should have replication privileges [ REPLICATION CLIENT, SELECT]

php example/dump_events.php

For test SQL events:

CREATE DATABASE php_mysql_replication;
use php_mysql_replication;
CREATE TABLE test4 (id int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, data VARCHAR(255), data2 VARCHAR(255), PRIMARY KEY(id));
INSERT INTO test4 (data,data2) VALUES ("Hello", "World");
UPDATE test4 SET data = "World", data2="Hello" WHERE id = 1;
DELETE FROM test4 WHERE id = 1;

Output will be similar to this (depends on configuration for example GTID off/on):

FAQ

1. Why and when need php-mysql-replication ?

Well first of all mysql don't give you async calls. You usually need to program this in your application (by event dispaching and adding to some queue system and if your db have many point of entry like web, backend other microservices its not always cheap to add processing to all of them. But using mysql replication protocol you can lisen on write events and process then asynchronously (best combo it's to add item to some queue system like rabbitmq, redis or kafka). Also in invalidate cache, search engine replication, real time analytics and audits.

2. It's awsome ! but what is the catch ?

Well first of all you need to know that a lot of events may come through, like if you update 1 000 000 records in table "bar" and you need this one insert from your table "foo" Then all must be processed by script and you need to wait for your data. This is normal and this how it's work. You can speed up using config options. Also if script crashes you need to save from time to time position form binlog (or gtid) to start from this position when you run this script again to avoid duplicates.

3. I need to process 1 000 000 records and its taking forever!!

Like I mention in 1 point use queue system like rabbitmq, redis or kafka, they will give you ability to process data in multiple scripts.

4. I have a problem ? you script is missing something ! I have found a bug !

Create an issue I will try to work on it in my free time :)

5. How much its give overhead to mysql server ?

It work like any other mysql in slave mode and its giving same overhead.

6. Socket timeouts error

To fix this best is to increase db configurations "net_read_timeout" and "net_write_timeout" to 3600. (tx Bijimon)

7. Partial updates fix

Set in my.conf binlog_row_image=full to fix reciving only partial updates.

8. No replication events when connected to replica server

Set in my.conf log_slave_updates=on to fix this (#71)(#66)
