Running jobs in the foreground (sequential):
Job1 -------->
Job2 ----------------->
Job3 ---->Running jobs in the background (parallel):
Job1 -------->
Job2 ----------------->
Job3 ---->For most applications it is recommended to use ->runInBackground() as this is typical of a Cron implementation and is often quicker. If you specifically need to access the output of each Cron Job, use ->runInForeground().
->runInBackground() returns an array of Process instances. ->runInForeground() returns an array of outputs.
Waiting, Terminating And Killing
By default all background processes register a shutdown function that forces the PHP script to wait for job to complete before shutting down. You can call ->wait() on a Process instance if you need to wait until it has finished.
You can also use ->terminate() and ->kill() on a Process to send terminate and kill signals.
->wait(), ->terminate() and ->kill() are also available on the Manager instance and will wait for, terminate or kill every process.
Running Jobs At A Custom Time
You can see which Jobs are due at a particular time by passing a \DateTime to ->getDueJobs():
