Something I want to talk
i have already contact laravel a little time for improve my coding skill and speed, and since i learn laravel with official document, i found some problem with it.
there's no doubt laravel is powerful and beautiful but the official docs is terrible. if anyone who used to learn with official docs may find that official docs is not friendly to newer, lack some important step(it consider that you already know) and less sample, it make me pain in learn laravel, so i prefer learn with other internet resourse.
Let's start
in this and later section i will show how to setting laravel's queues in a few step, it works well on my project!
before use queues you have to setting your ".env" file to that is know where can put my job into, you can set with some database (ex. mySql) also Redis(it's a in memory database).
see official docs what is support
i well setting with my database in this sample but consider what you need maybe Redis is more suitable
1 . in .env set this to enable queues
QUEUE_DRIVER=database
2. make a table for queues and migrate
$ php artisan queue:table
$ php artisan migrate
now you are already to use queues!
3. make a job you want to use queues
$ php artisan make:job SendSMS
4. go to your controller and add this namespace
use AppJobsSendSMS;
5. take a look the file you made at AppJobsSendSMS,now do what you want in "handle" (if you want to compact variable i will write before)
6. in your controller call this to add a job to queues
$this->dispatch(new SendSMS( ));
that's it! not to hard, isn't it?
use $ php artisan queue:listen to monitor the queue
Compact variable
i am not going to describe anything in this section, just look how i pass it
controller :
$this->dispatch(new SendSMS($name,$phone,$smbody));
AppJobsSendSMS :
protected $name,$phone,$smbody;
public function __construct($name,$phone,$smbody)
{
$this->name=$name;
$this->phone=$phone;
$this->smbody=$smbody;
}
protected $name,$phone,$smbody;
public function __construct($name,$phone,$smbody)
{
$this->name=$name;
$this->phone=$phone;
$this->smbody=$smbody;
}
public function handle()
{
//$this->name
// $this->phone
//$this->smbody
}
