How to run a background process in symfony - php

Question

I have a symfony commad that needes few minutes to be completed. And i want to run it by a http request. The problem is that the server kills the command process just after sending response, he has a timeout.
i tried to use symfony process asynchronously But still not working ( i get always the timeout problem).
I dont want use the kernel.terminate event, since it is not a best practice. Here is the code in my controller :
$commandProcess=new Process('php bin/console app:doSomeThing');
$commandProcess->setWorkingDirectory('./../');
$commandProcess->start();
$commandProcess->setTimeout(50000000);
Any response will be much appreciated.

Answer 1

I had to desibale the process output and add '&' after the command
Here the answer:
new Process('php bin/console app:dosomthing &');
$commandProcess=new Process('php bin/console app:dosomthing &');
$commandProcess->setWorkingDirectory('./../');
$commandProcess->disableOutput();
$commandProcess->setTimeout(1800);
$commandProcess->start();

Answer 2

I write here the solution that has finally worked for me
First create a service:
use Symfony\Component\Process\Process;
use Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\KernelInterface;
class ProcessService {
public function __construct(
private KernelInterface $appKernel
){ }
public function executeProcessAsync($processToExecute) {
$rootDir = $this->appKernel->getProjectDir();
$process = Process::fromShellCommandline($processToExecute . ' &');
$process->setWorkingDirectory($rootDir);
$process->disableOutput();
$process->setTimeout(0);
$process->start();
}
}
Then we use the service from a controller:
class MyController {
public function __construct(
private ProcessService $procesService
){
public function __invoke(Request $request)
{
// (other stuff ...)
$this->procesService->executeProcessAsync('php bin/console mycommands:command ');
// (other stuff...)
}
}
