Introduction
============

[](#introduction)

With PHPDaemon you'll be able to run simple one-time daemons in any case you find yourself in a situation where you need to run an external script, meaning you need a Helper in your web project or what not.

This class works by storing a pid **inside** your script's dir as `.script_file.pid` (files starting wiht `.` are hidden by default).

Script output (logging) will be set in `$options` with the keys `(boolean) log` and `(string) log_path`.

If `log` is set to true and no `log_path` is provided or is invalid it will log in the script's directory.

If `log` is set to true and `log_path` is provided and valid it will log into the given log\_path.

**Log's name will be your `script_file` name ending with `.log`**.

**Example:**For the **pid** `/your/daemon/path/to/script_file.php` would be `/your/daemon/path/to/.script_file.php.pid`and for the **log** `/your/daemon/path/to/script_file.php` without a log\_path, it would be `/your/daemon/path/to/script_file.php.log`.
