A local push queue driver for Laravel 4.

Local push queue driver for Laravel 4

This package provides a local laravel queue driver that will open a non-blocking connection to itself, thus offloading the actuall processing of a job., _(*1)

Limitations, _(*2)

• Retying failed attempts does not work
• Delayed jobs are not delayed and execute immediately

Installation Via Composer

Add this to you composer.json file, in the require object:, _(*3)

"mmanos/laravel-localpushqueue": "dev-master"

After that, run composer install to install the package., _(*4)

Add the service provider to app/config/app.php, within the providers array., _(*5)

'providers' => array(
    // ...
    'Mmanos\LocalPushQueue\LocalPushQueueServiceProvider',
)

Configuration

Update the existing queue.php config file and add a new local array to the existing connections array:, _(*6)

'connections' => array(
    //...
    'local' => array(
        'driver' => 'localpush',
        'method' => 'POST',
        'url'    => url('queue/receive'),
    ),
),

Then update the default queue driver to be local., _(*7)

Next, ensure you have a route defined to listen for your pushed jobs:, _(*8)

Route::post('queue/receive', function() { return Queue::marshal(); });

Finally, since this driver makes a request to the URL used by your application, make sure your server can resolve the hostname defined in the url config value. On a dev server you may need to ensure your local hostname is in your machine's hosts file., _(*9)
