README

The SignalHandler plugin provides cross-platform signal handling for CakePHP console commands with the following features:

• Cross-platform signal handling (Linux, Windows, macOS)
• Graceful command termination with Ctrl+C and other signals
• Zero external dependencies - pure CakePHP implementation
• CakePHP event system integration
• Automatic signal handler registration and cleanup
• Support for long-running commands and infinite loops
• React event loop integration support

The plugin is designed to provide signal handling capabilities following 2 approaches:

• Quick drop-in solution for existing commands. Add signal handling in minutes.
• Extensible solution for custom signal handling. You can extend:
  • SignalableCommandInterface for custom signal handling
  • SignalHandlerTrait for callback based signal handling
  • Custom signal event listeners
  • Platform-specific signal handlers

The plugin integrates seamlessly with CakePHP's console system and maintains zero external dependencies.
