title: Kafka client for PHP
body: <p>I have a problem with Kafka PHP client on Windows (using xampp). I have installed Apache Kafka 0.8 and tested successfully. Then, I'm finding a PHP client to integrate Kafka to PHP, I just only want to make PHP can produce messages to Kafka (no consume).</p>
  
  <p>By this link: <a href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Clients#Clients-PHP" rel="noreferrer">https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Clients#Clients-PHP</a>
  I found: <a href="https://github.com/EVODelavega/phpkafka" rel="noreferrer">https://github.com/EVODelavega/phpkafka</a></p>
  
  <p>But this PHP Kafka client is being develop and the installation of this extension is more complex (requied <a href="https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka/" rel="noreferrer">librdkafka</a>)</p>
  
  <p>I have tried with other clients but no one work for me.</p>

  <li><a href="https://github.com/quipo/kafka-php" rel="noreferrer">https://github.com/quipo/kafka-php</a></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Does anyone have the same problem with me? Is there simple solution to integrate Kafka to PHP?</p>
