I still like the idea but there is currently no use case to develop it anymore.

Console Helper Module for Zend Framework 2

This free as in freedom module should easy up implementing console commands supporting POSIX Signal Handling.

Furthermore, there are some simple but useful methods implemented:

getParameter($name)
getRequest()
hasBooleanParameter($shortName = '', $longName = '')
hasParameter($name)
throwExceptionIfNotCalledInsideAnCliEnvironment()

It is based on the skeleton zf2 module. Thanks also to the skeleton application.

Since it is an abstract Controller, there are no test available.

The versioneye status is:

It is also available at openhub.net.

Check out the demo environment if you want to see it in action.

Backport for Zend Framework 2.2 / Debian 6

There is a backport available for debian 6 and its zend framework 2.2 limiting php version.

Example / Usage

<?php

namespace MyModule\Controller\Console;

use Exception;
use ZfConsoleHelper\Controller\Console\AbstractConsoleController;

class IndexController extends AbstractConsoleController
{
    public function indexAction()
    {
        try {
            $this->throwExceptionIfNotCalledInsideAnCliEnvironment();

            $this->attachSignalHandler($this);

            //some example items
            //  simple think about a lot of items that indicates longer
            //  processing runtime
            $items = array('one', 'two', 'three', 'four');

            //use implemented method to react on signal handling
            $this->processItems(
                $items,             //big list of items
                $this,              //current object
                'processItem',      //method that should be called for each item
                $arguments = array( //additional arguments for method 'processItem' (if needed)
                    'foo',
                    'bar'
                )
            );
        } catch (Exception $exception) {
            $this->handleException($exception);
        }
    }

    /**
     * must be protected since it will be called from the parent
     *
     * @param string $item
     * @param string $stringOne
     * @param string $stringTwo
     */
    protected function processItem($item, $stringOne, $stringTwo)
    {
        $console = $this->getConsole();
        $console->writeLine(
            'this is item "' . $item .
            '" with string one "' . $stringOne . '"' .
            '" and string two "' . $stringTwo . '"'
        );
    }

    /**
     * @return boolean
     */
    private function beVerbose()
    {
        return $this->hasBooleanParameter('v', 'verbose');
    }
}

Code like above will output something like that.

this is item "one" with string one "foo"" and string two "bar"
this is item "two" with string one "foo"" and string two "bar"
this is item "three" with string one "foo"" and string two "bar"
this is item "four" with string one "foo"" and string two "bar"

AbstractConsoleControllerFactory

The Factory is a good base for your controller factory. Use the method "transformIntoServiceManager" to transform your injected ControllerManager into ServiceManager.
