MTMan
=====

[](#mtman)

A Multithreading Solution for PHP

Overview
--------

[](#overview)

MTMan is a production-ready multithreading management library for PHP 8.3+ that provides true parallel execution capabilities through native process management. It offers enterprise-grade features including automatic resource cleanup, configurable retry mechanisms, and comprehensive logging.

Key Advantages
--------------

[](#key-advantages)

### True Multithreading (vs ReactPHP)

[](#true-multithreading-vs-reactphp)

While ReactPHP uses an event loop for asynchronous operations, MTMan provides actual parallel execution

### Simplified Architecture (vs Swoole)

[](#simplified-architecture-vs-swoole)

Unlike Swoole's complex C-level implementation, MTMan provides a pure PHP solution

### Enhanced Versatility (vs Guzzle)

[](#enhanced-versatility-vs-guzzle)

While Guzzle focuses on HTTP requests, MTMan handles any parallel processing need

### Production-Ready Features (vs Spatie Ray)

[](#production-ready-features-vs-spatie-ray)

Unlike development tools like Spatie Ray, MTMan is built for production use

Technical Specifications
------------------------

[](#technical-specifications)

Thread Management

- OS-level process isolation through PCNTL
- Configurable thread limits
- Automatic thread cleanup
- Process status monitoring

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

[](#requirements)

PHP 8.3+ PCNTL extension Optional: SMBus for enhanced IPC

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

[](#basic-usage)

```
use MTMan\MTMan;

$mtman = new MTMan(['threads_count' => 4]);

// Add parallel tasks
$mtman->addTask(function() {
    return processDataSet1();
});
$mtman->addTask(function() {
    return processDataSet2();
});

// Execute and get results
$results = $mtman->run();
```

Advanced Configuration
----------------------

[](#advanced-configuration)

```
$config = [
    'threads_count' => 4,
    'time_limit' => 60,
    'log_level' => 'DEBUG',
    'max_retries' => 3,
    'temp_dir' => '/var/mtman/temp'
];

$mtman = new MTMan($config);
```

Monitoring
----------

[](#monitoring)

```
// Get thread status
$status = $mtman->getThreadStatus();

// Sample log output
{
    "timestamp": "2024-02-11T15:30:00",
    "process_id": 12345,
    "thread_id": 2,
    "status": "completed",
    "execution_time": 1.23,
    "memory_peak": "2.5MB"
}
```

Check example dir content from browser
--------------------------------------
