Worker

A small library to build stable, long-running workers that terminate gracefully when limits are exceeded or a SIGTERM signal is received. Perfect for daemonized console commands running under Docker, Kubernetes, supervisor or systemd, where the process manager restarts the worker after it exits.

Features

• Configurable run, memory and time limits
• Graceful shutdown on SIGTERM
• Extensible via events and custom listeners
• PSR-3 logging of the worker lifecycle
• Plays well with Symfony and Laravel console commands

Installation

composer require patchlevel/worker
