You will need unix platform for this to work

Install

composer require diversen/background-job

Usage

cd background-job && php example.php

example.php:

<?php

include_once "bgJob.php"; // Only used if autoloader is not enabled
use diversen\bgJob;

$bg = new bgJob();
$command = "./example.sh";
$bg->execute($command, "output.txt", "pid.txt");

// View pid
echo $bg->pid . "\n";

This executes example.sh:

#!/bin/bash
echo "Hi, I'm sleeping for 5 seconds..."
date
sleep 5
echo "all Done."
