用PHP执行php脚本

Question

I have a php function to save multiple rows in database, I can't use this on the web requests since it takes much time. In the function, first I need to obtain a list of ids from database, do some processing, then save new set data into another table. Is it possible to run this script from php, for example from a controller?

Answer 1

Use shell_exec

$output = shell_exec('php YourFile.php');

OR

exec

exec('php YourFile.php')

OR

cronjob ( As @Thomas mentioned )

* * * * * php /var/www/file.php >> /var/www/log/cron.log 2>&1

If you want to run it continuously set_time_limit(0)

<?php

set_time_limit(0);
