>> On UNIX and UNIX-like systems, you can think of a foreground job as one that is connected to a keyboard and a background job is one that is not connected to a keyboard at that time. <<
Thank you; that explains it perfectly.

gearman_job_status
GEARMAN_JOB_STATUS(3) 1 GEARMAN_JOB_STATUS(3)
GearmanClient::jobStatus - Get the status of a background job
Object oriented style (method):
SYNOPSIS
public array GearmanClient::jobStatus (string $job_handle)
DESCRIPTION
Gets the status for a background job given a job handle. The status information will specify whether the job is known, whether the job is
currently running, and the percentage completion.
PARAMETERS
o $job_handle
- The job handle assigned by the Gearman server
RETURN VALUES
An array containing status information for the job corresponding to the supplied job handle. The first array element is a boolean indicat-
ing whether the job is even known, the second is a boolean indicating whether the job is still running, and the third and fourth elements
correspond to the numerator and denominator of the fractional completion percentage, respectively.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
Monitor the status of a long running background job
<?php
/* create our object */
$gmclient= new GearmanClient();
/* add the default server */
$gmclient->addServer();
/* run reverse client */
$job_handle = $gmclient->doBackground("reverse", "this is a test");
if ($gmclient->returnCode() != GEARMAN_SUCCESS)
{
echo "bad return code
";
exit;
}
$done = false;
do
{
sleep(3);
$stat = $gmclient->jobStatus($job_handle);
if (!$stat[0]) // the job is known so it is not done
$done = true;
echo "Running: " . ($stat[1] ? "true" : "false") . ", numerator: " . $stat[2] . ", denomintor: " . $stat[3] . "
";
}
while(!$done);
echo "done!
";
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
Running: true, numerator: 3, denomintor: 14
Running: true, numerator: 6, denomintor: 14
Running: true, numerator: 9, denomintor: 14
Running: true, numerator: 12, denomintor: 14
Running: false, numerator: 0, denomintor: 0
done!
