$lp->output($callback, $arguments);

$lp->addTask($callback, $arguments);

$lp->taskMessage($message);

Get array of progress files

$lp->checkRunningProgress();

Get progress by process key

$lp->checkProgress($processKey);

Start running the process

$lp->run();

$lp = new LongProcess('1');
function task() {
	sleep(1); // simulate long process
}
$lp->addTask('task');
$lp->run();
