How it works
------------

[](#how-it-works)

- Watchtower handle Monolog methods to send messages
- After text formatting it creates fork of process and send message via guzzle
- Parent process doing nothing so you don't wait until it stops requesting Telegram API
- Child process waits for response and die after job is done
- If you set config option `'useFork' => false` guzzle will wait for response from Telegram API and hold your app till

*Too much messages per time could eat all of your RAM because there is no fork bomb detectors!*
