title: PHP Heroku background workers?
body: <p>I'm using Heroku running a PHP app, I need to setup background workers which talk to external APIs and write to my DB, Heroku has lots of info about setting up workers for Ruby but not for PHP. </p>
  
  <p>Is this easily doable on Heroku with PHP? </p>
  
  <p>I've never tackled launching background processes and I can't seem to find any docs detailing it...</p>
