A PHP version of [concurrently](https://npmjs.com/package/concurrently) written atop ReactPHP and RxPHP.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP 7.2 or higher

Rationale
---------

[](#rationale)

Running multiple processes - especially those of the long-running variety - in distinct terminals is a practice that can become intractable, irrespective of Programming Language preferences. PHP, a language often derided for a lack of a rich assortment of programming artifacts, is despite the ill-conceived derision, an enabler of concurrency - via userspace tools like [ReactPHP](https://reactphp.org) and [RxPHP](https://github.com/ReactiveX/RxPHP).

The impetus for creating and maintaining `php-concurrently` is, therefore, a combination of strivings: a desire to harness existent language ecosystem tools to make running multiple processes concurrently - in a single terminal window - possible.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Though it is possible to clone the repo, Composer remains the best tool for installing `php-concurrently`. To install the package via Composer, type the following in a console of your choosing.

```
$ composer global require chemem/php-concurrently
```

Basic Usage
-----------

[](#basic-usage)

`php-concurrently` is a console application whose usage rubric follows a familiar `concurrently [options] [arguments]` pattern. Shown below is a simple example to concurrently run two PHP processes - defined in the `scipts` section of a `composer.json` file - with `php-concurrently`.

```
$ concurrently "composer server:run,composer worker:run"
```

It is possible to add to a `composer.json` file - a `php-concurrently`-executable directive - in a manner akin to defining `concurrently` directives in `package.json` files.

```
{
  "scripts": {
    "app:run": "concurrently \"composer server:run, composer worker:run\"",
    "server:run": "php -f server.php 4000",
    "worker:run": "php -f worker.php"
  }
}
```

Dealing with Problems
