This article mainly introduces the two daemon methods in php. Interested friends can refer to it. I hope it can help everyone.

The first way is to use nohup and & together.

Adding the ampersand after the command allows the started process to run in the background without occupying the console. The console can also run other commands. Here I use a while infinite loop to demonstrate. The code is as follows

<?php

while(true){
        echo time().PHP_EOL;
        sleep(3);
}

Copy after login

Use & method to start the process

[root@localhost php]# php deadloop.php &
[1] 3454
[root@localhost php]# ps aux | grep 3454
root      
3454  0.0  0.8 284544  8452 pts/0    
T    18:06   0:00 php deadloop.php
root      
3456  0.0  0.0 103316   896 pts/0    
S+   18:08   0:00 grep 3454

[1]+  Stopped                 
php deadloop.php
[root@localhost php]#

Copy after login

You can see that the process does not occupy the console, and the console can also run other commands. At this time We can also use the fg command to restore the process to the normal mode of occupying the console.

[root@localhost php]# fg
php deadloop.php

1470996685
1470996688
1470996691

The above is a brief introduction to the & command

Let’s look at another command nohup

. Add nohup before the command. The started process will ignore the Linux hang signal (SIGHUP). So under what circumstances will the SIGHUP signal under Linux be triggered? The following content is excerpted from Baidu Encyclopedia:

SIGHUP会在以下3种情况下被发送给相应的进程：
1、终端关闭时，该信号被发送到session首进程以及作为job提交的进程（即用 & 符号提交的进
程）
2、session首进程退出时，该信号被发送到该session中的前台进程组中的每一个进程
3、若父进程退出导致进程组成为孤儿进程组，且该进程组中有进程处于停止状态（收到SIGSTOP或
SIGTSTP信号），该信号会被发送到该进程组中的每一个进程。

Copy after login

Combining 1 and 2 we know that regardless of whether the process is started with & (job mode), the SIGHUP signal will be received when closing the terminal. So how will the process handle the SIGHUP signal? Look at the sentence also taken from Baidu Encyclopedia

系统对SIGHUP信号的默认处理是终止收到该信号的进程。所以若程序中没有捕捉该信号，当收到该
信号时，进程就会退出。

Copy after login

That is to say, closing the terminal process will receive the SIGHUP signal, and the default processing method of this signal is to end the process. process, of course we can also capture and handle the signal ourselves, or ignore it, for example, in the following code

<?php
pcntl_signal(SIGHUP, function(){
   //这地方处理信号的方式我们只是简单的写入一句日志到文件中
   file_put_contents(&#39;logs.txt&#39;, &#39;pid : &#39; . posix_getpid() . &#39; 
   receive SIGHUP 信号&#39; . PHP_EOL);
});
        
while(1) {
        sleep(10);
        pcntl_signal_dispatch();
}

Copy after login

we run this routine on the command line, then directly close the shell terminal window, and then reopen a terminal to view Is this process still running:

[root@localhost php]# ps -ef | grep deadloop.php 
root     16112     1  0 17:20 ?        00:00:00 php deadloop.php
root     16138 16115  0 17:24 pts/4    00:00:00 grep deadloop.php
[root@localhost php]# cat logs.txt 
pid : 16112 receive SIGHUP 信号

Copy after login

You can see that deadloop.php is still running, and its parent process has become the init process (because its original parent process exited and was adopted by the init process), from writing You can also see in the file contents that the SIGHUP signal is received when the terminal process is closed. In fact, we don't have to be so troublesome. We only need to use the nohup command provided by Linux. But when we use nohup to start the process, the process will ignore the SIGHUP signal received and will not exit. First, remove the signal processing code just now. Then run nohup.

[root@localhost php]# nohup php deadloop.php 
nohup: 忽略输入并把输出追加到"nohup.out"

Copy after login

And nohup will redirect the output of the program to the nohup.out file in the current directory by default, if there is no writable permission , then write $homepath/nohup.out

[root@localhost php]# ls
cmd.sh  deadloop.php  getPhoto.php  nohup.out  pics
[root@localhost php]# tail -f nohup.out 
1470999772
1470999775
1470999778
1470999781
1470999784
1470999787
1470999790
1470999793
1470999796
1470999799
1470999802

Copy after login

At this time, close the terminal, the process will not end, but become an orphan process (ppid=1 ) because the parent process that created it exited.

[root@localhost ~]# ps -ef | grep 3554
root      3554  3497  0 19:09 pts/0    00:00:00 php deadloop.php
root      3575  3557  0 19:10 pts/1    00:00:00 grep 3554
[root@localhost ~]# ps -ef | grep 3554
root      3554     1  0 19:09 ?     00:00:00 php deadloop.php
root      3577  3557  0 19:10 pts/1    00:00:00 grep 3554
[root@localhost ~]#

Copy after login

Conclusion : So when we combine the nohup and & methods, the started process will not occupy the console nor rely on the console. After the console is closed, the process will be adopted by process No. 1 and become an orphan process. This is the same as the daemon process mechanism. Very similar.

[root@localhost php]# nohup php deadloop.php >logs.txt 2>error.txt &
[1] 3612
[root@localhost php]# ps -ef |grep 3612
root      3612  3557  0 19:18 pts/1    00:00:00 php deadloop.php
root      3617  3557  0 19:19 pts/1    00:00:00 grep 3612
[root@localhost php]#

Copy after login

Where >logs.txt redirects standard output, 2>error.txt redirects standard error output.

The above is an introduction to the first implementation method.

The second implementation method is to implement it through code according to the rules and characteristics of the daemon process. The biggest feature of the daemon process is that it is separated from the user terminal and session. The following is the implemented code, with comments in key places.

<?php
$pid = pcntl_fork();
if ($pid == -1)
{
    throw new Exception(&#39;fork子进程失败&#39;);
}
elseif ($pid > 0)
{
    //父进程退出,子进程不是进程组长，以便接下来顺利创建新会话
    exit(0);
}

// 最重要的一步，创建一个新的会话，脱离原来的控制终端
posix_setsid();

// 修改当前进程的工作目录，由于子进程会继承父进程的工作目录，修改工作目录以释放对父进
程工作目录的占用。
chdir(&#39;/&#39;);

/*
 * 通过上一步，我们创建了一个新的会话组长，进程组长，且脱离了终端，但是会话组长可以
 申请重新打开一个终端，为了避免
 * 这种情况，我们再次创建一个子进程，并退出当前进程，这样运行的进程就不再是会话组长。
 */
$pid = pcntl_fork();
if ($pid == -1)
{
    throw new Exception(&#39;fork子进程失败&#39;);
}
elseif ($pid > 0)
{
    //  再一次退出父进程，子进程成为最终的守护进程
    exit(0);
}

// 由于守护进程用不到标准输入输出，关闭标准输入，输出，错误输出描述符
fclose(STDIN);
fclose(STDOUT);
fclose(STDERR);

/*
 * 处理业务代码
 */

while(TRUE)
{
    file_put_contents(&#39;log.txt&#39;, time().PHP_EOL, FILE_APPEND);
    sleep(5);
}
