Giving a PHP CLI process a process name

For a project I am working on, I am spawning a multiple amount of worker processes. Thing is, they don't appear in Apple's Activity Monitor, because they don't have a proper title set.

I tried to use the cli_set_process_title function that is available since PHP 5.5. Unfortunately, this is what XDebug pins me to the console:

Warning: cli_set_process_title(): cli_set_process_title had an error: Not initialized correctly in /Users/Ingwie/Work/BIRD3/php-lib/yii_worker.php on line 22

And the proctitle extension sets a very weird title. It does not appear on the Activity Monitor, but in ps:

  504 44278 44261   0 10:44pm ttys000    0:00.00 BIRD3: Workerman Worker                                                                                                         local/etc/fish __fish_runtime_dir=/tmp/fish.Ingwie __fish_help_dir=/usr/local/share/doc/fish __fish_datadir=/usr/local/share/fish __fish_bin_dir=/usr/local/bin

and that isn't even all of my environment variables.

As you can see, there seems to be no way to set a process title.

Or do you know one?

It seems to be necessary to be superuser to use this functionnality on MacOS 10.10.x.

Sorry for not able to help you getting this working.
