guzzle 6.3 post async request - php

Question

I'm trying to send post async request
$client = new Client([
'timeout' => 2.0,
]);
$request = new \GuzzleHttp\Psr7\Request('POST', 'localhost/test.php' , [ 'json' => [
"username"=>"xyz",
"password"=>"xyz",
"first_name"=>"test",
"last_name"=>"test",
"email"=>"test#test.com",
"roles"=>"Administrator"
], ]);
$promise = $client->sendAsync($request)->then(function ($response) {
echo 'I completed! ' . $response->getBody();
});
$promise->wait();
test.php code is
var_dump($_POST);
The result should be the variables that i've set, but i get empty array.

Answer 1

I believe the problem is that you are using "json" => [], you might have to use "form_params" => [] to get things populated to the $_POST array.
See some documentation here: http://docs.guzzlephp.org/en/stable/request-options.html#form-params
The json option is used for RESTful APIs that explicitly require json as input, but in php normally $_POST is populated with the posted form, for example the named <input>s in a <form>

Answer 2

Use a scheduler function like below , read the register_shutdown_function
this function will be called at end of php script, so its a good time to close the connection and continue the heavy jobs.
public static function schedulePromise($callable, ...$args)
{
register_shutdown_function(function ($callable, ...$args) {
#session_write_close();
#ignore_user_abort(true);
call_user_func($callable, ...$args);
}, $callable, ...$args);
}
And the user never feels the heavy work behind the scenes. for example waiting for request in guzzle http
$promise = $client->sendAsync($request, ['timeout' => 10])
->then(function ($response) {
// success
}, function ($response) {
// failure
});
self::schedulePromise([$promise, 'wait'],false);
