Fork

The example shows how two tasks could be executed in parallel.

Internally, by default the engine still executes tasks one by one because of the nature of PHP. The tasks could be done in parallel for real if an async transition implementation is provided. A solution could use message queue (MQ) or process forking in background.

Setup


mkdir ~/pvm-fork
cd ~/pvm-fork
composer req formapro/pvm:0.4.x-dev makasim/values:0.5.x-dev

# create such file with the code below
php fork.php

Result

fork.php

purchase_order
send_email
send_sms

fork.php
