If you are not a software enterprise focusing on IM, IM functions do not need to be designed by yourself. You only need to access some existing services to complete simple instant chat functions.

The third-party im service we initially used in our project is helpless.
Later I changed it to workerman. The effect is not bad yet.

You need to know about the push-related technologies.

Since the landlord chose php, it is recommended that you try workerman as the chat function framework, which does not interfere with the original system, and both are php. There is no other learning cost, and the workerman documentation is complete, active Communities and mature products in use

Demo: http://webim.swoole.com/

PHPWebIM communication structure based on Swoole:
1. The server is provided by Nginx/PHP-FPM for HTTP services, such as listening to port 80:
The browser accesses the http://im.swoole.com/main.html to get the data produced by the Nginx/PHP-FPM service.
2. The WebSocket Service (CLI program) implemented by PHP Swoole listens to a port separately, such as 9503:
Use JavaScript to access ws: // im.swoole.com: 9503 on the main.html page to obtain the data generated by the WebSocket service.
