在LAMP堆栈中运行后台进程

Question

I have an application running on LAMP stack.In USER model after expiration of subscription deadline,I need to set user's current

subscription to default or free subscription.

So I need a background process which always checks for the expiration of user's subscription deadline and set to default subscription.

Is there any other efficient and manageable solution to run a background process which will update user's data ?

Application Environment:

CakePHP,Redis,MariaDB

Please edit if this question isn't good enough to describe my problem :(

Answer 1

So in general your question about recurring event, if this event do changes in DB and also another actions like send emails or stop some services or connect to remote resource,, you have to use cron job

but if this event only related to DB then you can create recurring event like the following link

Answer 2

In case of PHP there is not so many out-of-the-box solutions. One of the available is rabbitmq-delayed-sample . It is built on top of rabbitmq messaging system.

Usage example:

$container->get('delayed_producer')->delayedPublish(5000, $messageBody, '');

where 5000 is an expiration period after that job will be executed. You can put such code to the new user creation place.
