This package can be used to schedule the execution of task like the cron program.
First it starts a daemon process using Luca Mariano's PHP fork class to make the cron daemon script run like a standalone program.
It can parse a crontab file with Mick Sear's cron parser class and extract the job scheduling definitions into a MySQL database table.
When it is time to run a scheduled job, it executes the job command in the crontab definition as PHP code as a separate process.
The output of the job PHP code is also stored in a database table. |
