morjodrom / time-limiter example snippets


// maximum time to execute one request
$REQUEST_TIMEOUT_SEC = 5; 

$curlClient = new SomeCurlClient(); // just an example.

// shared hosting often has a limit. E.g. 30 seconds
$maxExecutionTime = ini_get('max_execution_time'); 
$timeLimiter = new \timelimiter\TimeLimiter($maxExecutionTime, $REQUEST_TIMEOUT_SEC);

// check if there is time left to prevent 504 timeout
// recommended 
foreach($timeLimiter => $timeLeft){
  $result = $curlClient->doSomeHeavyJob([
      'timeout' => $REQUEST_TIMEOUT_SEC
  ]);
  // handle the result
  // ...
}

// or alternatively while loop might be used with respective Iterator calls.
while($timeLimiter->valid()){ 
  $result = $curlClient->doSomeHeavyJob([
      'timeout' => $REQUEST_TIMEOUT_SEC
  ]);
  $timeLimiter->next(); // must be called to adapt to long iterations
}
