| 3 | +This package allows to continue processing PHP after having HTTP response sent back to the client under PHP-FPM. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +PHP functions added by this package are executed after HTTP response sent back to the client but before PHP shutdown ( |
| 6 | +before any registered shutdown function is called). |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +# Limitations and Side Effects |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +This package is for PHP-FPM only. Don't try to run it under CLI, PHP built-in web server, mod_php or FastCGI since it |
| 11 | +won't work. |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +This package doesn't end PHP session before running background tasks. Because of this, it could affect HTTP requests that |
| 14 | + use same session. Thus, this package should be used only for PHP applications where session is not used, e.g., stateless |
| 15 | + micro-services. |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +After sending HTTP response back to client side, background functions added continue to run and the PHP-FPM process is |
| 18 | +still running. To avoid side effects on your web server, please use this package accordingly. You may consider to use |
| 19 | +some worker instances or queue servers instead. When using this package, you may consider following suggestions to |
| 20 | +minimize side effects: |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +* increase child processes in PHP-FPM. |
| 23 | +* increase maximum execution time for PHP-FPM. |

| 26 | + |
| 27 | +```bash |
| 28 | +composer require crowdstar/background-processing:@dev |
| 29 | +``` |

| 31 | +# Examples |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +## |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +```php |
| 36 | +<?php |
| 37 | +use CrowdStar\BackgroundProcessing\BackgroundProcessing; |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +$sum = 0; |
| 40 | +$file = sys_get_temp_dir() . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'background-processing.txt'; |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +// First background task added. |
| 43 | +BackgroundProcessing::add( |
| 44 | +// increase variable $sum by the sum of given numbers. In this example, final value of $sum will be 7 (1+2+4). |
| 45 | + function (int ...$params) use (&$sum) { |
| 46 | + $sum += array_sum($params); |
| 47 | + }, |
| 48 | + 1, |
| 49 | + 2, |
| 50 | + 4 |
| 51 | +); |
| 52 | +// Second background task added and will be executed after the first one. |
| 53 | +BackgroundProcessing::add( |
| 54 | + function () use (&$sum, $file) { |
| 55 | + // Number 7 calculated from first task will be written to the file. |
| 56 | + file_put_contents($file, $sum); |
| 57 | + } |
| 58 | +); |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +// Number 0 will be returned back to HTTP client. |
| 61 | +echo "Current sum value is {$sum}. Please check file {$file} in the web server; final sum value there should be 7.\n"; |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +// Send HTTP response back to the client first, then run the two background tasks added. |
| 64 | +BackgroundProcessing::run(); |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +// Anything here also runs in background. |
| 67 | +echo "This message won't shown up in HTTP response."; |
| 68 | +?> |
| 69 | +``` |
