A tailored custom system to execute PHP classes as background jobs, independent of Laravel's built-in queue system.

Feature

• Priority queue
• Retry attempt
• Delay process
• Retry failed jobs

Installation

Publish configuration

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="easypeasy-runner-config"

Publish migration

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="easypeasy-runner-migration"

Usage

Configure Whitelist class namespaces

To prevent execution of unauthorized classes, you should update config/easypeasy-runner.php file with allowed class namespace or fully qualified class name.

eg.

<?php

return [
    ....
    'allowed_namespaces' => [
        'App\\Services\\'
    ],
    ...
]

Start background process

Run the following artisan command to start processing background job

php artisan background:jobs:process

Basic

<?php

use App\Services\EmailService;
use function NorbyBaru\EasyRunner\runBackgroundJob;

runBackgroundJob(
    className: EmailService::class, 
    methodName: 'sendNotification',
    params: [
        '[email protected]', 
        'Welcome',
        'This is welcome message'
    ]
);

PS. Ensure to set params value in correct orders as in function definition eg.

<?php

class EmailService
{
    public function sendNotification(string $email, string $subject, string $message)
    {
        // Execute
    }
}

Advanced

Configure priority job

Available options: low, medium, high

<?php

use function NorbyBaru\EasyRunner\runBackgroundJob;

runBackgroundJob(
    className: EmailService::class,
    methodName: 'sendUrgentNotification',
    params: [
        '[email protected]',
        'Emergency Alert'
    ],
    options: [
        'priority' => 'high'
    ]
);

Configure delay (seconds) job

<?php

use function NorbyBaru\EasyRunner\runBackgroundJob;

runBackgroundJob(
    className: EmailService::class,
    methodName: 'sendUrgentNotification',
    params: [
        '[email protected]',
        'Emergency Alert'
    ],
    options: [
        'priority' => 'low',
        'delay' => 120
    ]
);

<?php
use App\Services\ReportGenerator;
use function NorbyBaru\EasyRunner\runBackgroundJob;

runBackgroundJob(
    className: ReportGenerator::class, 
    methodName: 'generateMonthlyReport', 
    params: [
        '2023-11'
