# stream_socket_recvfrom

(PHP 5)

stream_socket_recvfrom — Receives data from a socket, connected or not

### Description

string stream_socket_recvfrom ( resource `$socket` , int `$length` [, int `$flags` [, string `&$address` ]] )

The function stream_socket_recvfrom() accepts data from a remote socket up to `length` bytes. If `address` is provided it will be populated with the address of the remote socket.

The value of `flags` can be any combination of the following:

possible values for `flags`
`STREAM_OOB` | Process OOB (out-of-band) data.
`STREAM_PEEK` | Retrieve data from the socket, but do not consume the buffer. Subsequent calls to fread() or stream_socket_recvfrom() will see the same data.

Example #1 stream_socket_recvfrom() Example

`<?php
/* Open a server socket to port 1234 on localhost */
$server = stream_socket_server('tcp://127.0.0.1:1234');
/* Accept a connection */
$socket = stream_socket_accept($server);
/* Grab a packet (1500 is a typical MTU size) of OOB data */
echo "Received Out-Of-Band: '" . stream_socket_recvfrom($socket, 1500, STREAM_OOB) . "'\n";
/* Take a peek at the normal in-band data, but don't comsume it. */
echo "Data: '" . stream_socket_recvfrom($socket, 1500, STREAM_PEEK) . "'\n";
/* Get the exact same packet again, but remove it from the buffer this time. */
echo "Data: '" . stream_socket_recvfrom($socket, 1500) . "'\n";
/* Close it up */
fclose($socket);
fclose($server);
?>`

> Informacja: If a message received is longer than the `length` parameter, excess bytes may be discarded depending on the type of socket the message is received from (such as UDP).

> Informacja: Calls to stream_socket_recvfrom() on socket-based streams, after calls to buffer-based stream functions (like fread() or stream_get_line()) read data directly from the socket and bypass the stream buffer.
