Send an http request through UDP

Question

I need to send a simple http request to trigger an event through UDP protocol, I don't need to receive the response

Is it possible and how can I do it with php

Answer 1

I think it should help you:

$server_ip = '127.0.0.1';
$server_port = 43278;
$message = 'Message';
$socket = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, SOL_UDP);
socket_sendto($socket, $message, strlen($message), 0, $server_ip, $server_port);
socket_close($socket);

More informations you can get at PHP MANUAL: socket_sendto
