JobDaemon

A super lightweight PHP library to create a job daemon off of. Ideal for queue consumers and usage in other types of producer/consumer architecture. It is robust, free of memory leaks, and can run forever (provided that the code extending from it are also free of memory leaks).

It has been used in several production environments ranging from small to medium sized traffic, proven to work well to process millions of queue entries a day.

Features

• Completely open to process data of any kind. Simply extend the class and overload the parent process and child process methods and do whatever work you need.
• Flexible logging options.
• Tested with PHP 5.3 and above
