Adds a background task to be run in parallel with other tasks. Call this method for all the tasks to be run in parallel, then call GearmanClient::runTasks() to perform the work.

Parameters

function_name

A registered function the worker is to execute

workload

Serialized data to be processed

context

Application context to associate with a task

unique

A unique ID used to identify a particular task

Return Values

A GearmanTask object or FALSE if the task could not be added.

Examples

Example #1 Two tasks, one background and one not

This example illustrates the difference between running a background task and a normal task. The client adds two tasks to execute the same function, but one is added with addTaskBackground(). A callback is set so that progress of the job can be tracked. A simple worker with an artificial delay reports on the job progress and the client picks this up through the callback. Two workers are run for this example. Note that the background task does not show in the client output.
