[Plugin] Socket plugin (v0.2b released)

[CoaPsyFactor]

there is bug with socket_remote_client_connected, fix is really easy.

File CSocket.cpp on line 286 condition should be reversed

if(m_pSocketInfo[socketid].ssl) {
	if(recv(m_pSocketInfo[socketid].connected_clients[remote_clientid], tempbuf, sizeof(tempbuf), NULL) != 0)
		return 1;
}

should be

if(false == m_pSocketInfo[socketid].ssl) {
	if(recv(m_pSocketInfo[socketid].connected_clients[remote_clientid], tempbuf, sizeof(tempbuf), NULL) != 0)
		return 1;
}

Hey,

I have been recently trying to send/receive from the server to my PHP file through this plugin, It's going pretty well but I'm just facing one issue with receiving the data from the server, It just keeps on crashing the website or sending errors, I'm running a 3 seconds timer to update the chat, Here is my codes anyway:


In the PHP file:

PHP Code:

if(socket_recv ( $sock , $msg, 2045 , 0 ) === TRUE)
            {
                echo '<div class="msg"><span class="username">'.$msg.'</span></div>';
            }
            else {
             
                $errorcode = socket_last_error();
                $errormsg = socket_strerror($errorcode);
                 
                die("Could not receive data: [$errorcode] $errormsg \n");
            } 


In the PWN file:

PHP Code:

public OnGameModeInit() {

    oSocket = socket_create(TCP);
    if(is_socket_valid(oSocket)) {

        socket_set_max_connections(oSocket, 10);
        socket_listen(oSocket, 1337);
    }    
    return 1;
}

public OnPlayerText(playerid, text[]) {

    new name[MAX_PLAYER_NAME+1];
    GetPlayerName(playerid, name, sizeof name);

    new str[80];
    format(str, sizeof str, "%s: %s", name, text);
    socket_send(oSocket, str, sizeof str);
    return 1;
} 


The connection between the server and the website is fine.

Are you certain that the socket.dll file is in your plugins/ folder?

How to send from website, to sa-mp server only?

I'm guessing your using PHP, right? If so then you need to read up on PHP about sending data via sockets. You will need to setup your server to accept a socket connection from your website, and then via PHP send the raw data to the samp server.

A useful tip would to use JSON or serialization to pass large amounts of data to the server, but if your only sending a small amount, you might be okay. Make sure you secure your connection if possible, make sure only your webserver ip address is the one connecting, and that if you can use SSL to secure your traffic, there is a free way to do this using Let Encrypt ( ****** Search ), yet can be difficult to setup in some cases.

PHP is not really meant for this scenario, it would be a better bet using something like node.js or python. The reason for this is that PHP is subjected to a request system, so it will only be called when apache calls the file after you proceed to the site.

Though there is a way to make PHP run infinitely it is not a suggested route to take, and will lead to such issues as what you currently have. PHP ends its process right after the code has been ran, meaning that though you have that code waiting to receive the data, it will not run it since the process is not running to execute it.

This is why I suggested to run something like node.js since the application is designed to run constantly, and not end after the code has been ran.

If you are in fact running PHP in a while loop to keep it alive, and your still not getting data, it maybe that your loops is causing the issue, with reading data from the socket and instead your data is being dropped.

It would be helpful if you could explain your setup, to further help us to finding a solution.

Checkout TCP Server example script.
