PHP - Write console output to file AND to console?

Question

I want to write the console output to a file AND to the console itself. To write the console output to a file I'm using this:

ob_start();
...
...
$output = ob_get_contents();
file_put_contents("cronjob.txt", $output, FILE_APPEND);
ob_flush();

But now I want also to print the output to the console instand of just writing it to a file. Is that possible and if yes, how can I do that?

Greetings and Thank You!

`ob_get_contents()` does not clear the output buffer, so this code should work as is. — Alex Howansky, May 02 '17 at 15:41
At the end of the progress I see the output also on the console, but not during the execution. How can I do that? — ThisIsDon, May 02 '17 at 15:42
If you want to display output as you go, why are you buffering? Buffering means holding it in a buffer until you retrieve those contents. — sidyll, May 02 '17 at 15:43
_"How can I do that?"_ Remove the output buffering completely and just call your script piped through tee: `php file.php | tee log.txt` — Alex Howansky, May 02 '17 at 15:46
how should I call it? piped through tee: php file.php | tee log.txt What does that means? — ThisIsDon, May 02 '17 at 15:50
`tee` is a program that copies input to two outputs. Run `man tee` for details. — Alex Howansky, May 02 '17 at 15:54
