Laravel Enhanced Scheduler

Install

Add Myriad Repository

The package is distributed internally with Satis. First add the repository to composer.json:

  "repositories": [
    {
      "type": "composer",
      "url": "https://satis.myriadmobile.com"
    }
  ]

Require the Dependency

Require the package with composer using the following command:

composer require myriad/laravel-enhanced-scheduler

Install Service Provider

After updating composer, add the service provider to the providers array in config/app.php:

Myriad\Illuminate\Console\Scheduling\EnhancedSchedulerServiceProvider::class,

Publish Migrations

Rather than creating your own migrations, you can publish the ones from the package:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider=myriad/laravel-enhanced-scheduler --tag=migrations

Use The Trait

Finally, to make the scheduler actually use the enhanced scheduler, simply use the trait in app/Console/Kernel.php

<?php

namespace App\Console;

use Illuminate\Console\Scheduling\Schedule;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Console\Kernel as ConsoleKernel;
use Myriad\Illuminate\Console\Scheduling\EnhancedScheduler;

class Kernel extends ConsoleKernel {

  use EnhancedScheduler;
  
  ...
  
}

Configuration

The enhanced scheduler is designed to work out of the box without additional configuration. Should you need to edit the configuration, publish the config file to the config directory:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider=myriad/laravel-enhanced-scheduler --tag=config

Usage

Use the enhanced scheduler exactly as you would the Laravel scheduler. Simply register your schedules in the schedules method!

New methods:

->withoutDistributedOverlapping($task)

Uses a distributed locking mechanism to ensure that the event is only run on one node in a cluster. The $task should be a unique name to identify the entry across the cluster. e.g. my-nightly-task.

->withoutLog()

Use when you don't want an event logged.

->withoutLogOutput()

Use when you want to log an event, but not the output. This is useful for events with very long output or when you just don't care.

->failOnNonZeroExit($task)

Use to ensure that a command exited cleanly. Only for use with commands.
