    )
)

Parameters

• program : an executable
• arguments : script path and their argument separate with array
• schedule (optional) :
  • default to false, it will be run as many as work_count once, useful for infinite loop script such as rabbitmq worker
  • if specify ( must use cronjob format ) , daemon will run it when schedule is reach
• work_count ( optional ) : default to 1 maximum 10, how many script have to run for current task
• timeout (optional) : task timeout in second default is 0 no timeout

To run the script as daemon you can use either init.d or systemd

If you use php task that using phpampqlib set set_close_on_destruct to false, so daemon can kill it gracefully without leaving zombie process

$connection->set_close_on_destruct(false);
