Installation / Usage
--------------------

[](#installation--usage)

Formal instructions are coming soon. In the meantime, use Composer to install the package:

```
composer require jcs224/faktory_worker_php5

```

Pushing jobs
------------

[](#pushing-jobs)

```
use FaktoryQueue\FaktoryClient;
use FaktoryQueue\FaktoryJob;

$client = new FaktoryClient('localhost', '7419', 'optionalpassword');
$job1 = new FaktoryJob('cooljob', [
    1,
    2
]);

$job2 = new FaktoryJob('cooljob2', [
    3,
    4
]);

$client->push($job1);
$client->push($job2);
```

### Scheduled jobs

[](#scheduled-jobs)

You can also schedule when jobs will run as you push them onto the queue. Here are some examples:

```
$client = new FaktoryClient('faktory', '7419');

$job1 = new FaktoryJob('CoolJob1', [
    1,
    2
]);

$job2 = new FaktoryJob('CoolJob2', [
    3,
    4
]);

$job3 = new FaktoryJob('CoolJob3', [
    5,
    6
]);

$job4 = new FaktoryJob('CoolJob4', [
    7,
    8
]);

$job5 = new FaktoryJob('CoolJob5', [
    9,
    10
]);

$job1->inSeconds(300);
$job2->inMinutes(15);
$job3->inHours(24);

$date = date(DATE_RFC3339, strtotime('+5 days'));
$job4->at($date);

$client->push($job1);
$client->push($job2);
$client->push($job3);
$client->push($job4);
$client->push($job5);
```

Starting a worker that listens for jobs
---------------------------------------

[](#starting-a-worker-that-listens-for-jobs)

```
use FaktoryQueue\FaktoryClient;
use FaktoryQueue\FaktoryWorker;

$client = new FaktoryClient('localhost', '7419', 'optionalpassword');
$worker = new FaktoryWorker($client);

$worker->register('cooljob', function($job) {
    echo "something cool: ".$job['args'][0].' '.$job['args'][1]."\n";
});

$worker->register('cooljob2', function($job) {
    echo "This is cooler: ".$job['args'][0].' '.$job['args'][1]."\n";
});

$worker->run(true);
```
