Feedback on ExternalResourceClient vs Guzzle

Hi Rafael Fernandes 

Concurrent HTTP requests

for example, if we need to execute three independent HTTP requests in one single method.

Please share your thoughts, thanks.

Sheraz Ahmed can you share more about your use case? are they async? do you expect responses for each? can you make an example using curl so we can try to understand?

Hi Rafael Fernandes 

Yes, async.

The use case is to send the multiple asynchronous requests and to not wait for the one request.

https://docs.guzzlephp.org/en/stable/quickstart.html

We have three HTTP requests, and currently using ExternalResourceClient and making requests one by one, so we call second and third request only once first one is finished. This leads to extra processing time.

use GuzzleHttp\Client;
use GuzzleHttp\Promise\Utils;

$client = new Client(['base_uri' => 'https://api.example.com']);

$requests = [
    'service_one'   => ['POST', '/service-one/data', ['param1' => 'value1', 'param2' => 'value2']],
    'service_two'   => ['POST', '/service-two/data', ['paramA' => 'valueA', 'paramB' => 'valueB']],
    'service_three' => ['POST', '/service-three/data', ['paramX' => 'valueX', 'paramY' => 'valueY']],
];

$headers = ['Authorization' => 'Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN']; // Example authorization header
$promises = [];

foreach ($requests as $key => [$method, $endpoint, $data]) {
    $cleanEndpoint = ltrim($endpoint, '/');
    $promises[$key] = $client->requestAsync(strtoupper($method), $cleanEndpoint, [
        'headers' => $headers,
        'json' => $data
    ]);
}

$responses = Utils::settle($promises)->wait();

foreach ($responses as $key => $response) {
    if ($response['state'] === 'fulfilled') {
        echo "Response from $key: " . $response['value']->getBody() . PHP_EOL;
    } else {
        echo "Error in $key request: " . $response['reason']->getMessage() . PHP_EOL;
    }
}

We would like to do with ExternalResourceClient if that is possible. Please confirm.

Also confirm, what's the plan for guzzle. Is it going to be depreciated or it will remain in vendor?

What's the suggestion to achieve this?

Thanks.
