The first milestone of the Jobs roadmap has been completed. The scheduler allows for the
scheduling of repeating jobs at specific intervals using the cron syntax.
Example schedule.yaml:
schedule:
testJobWithArgs:
class: App\Jobs\ImportData
cron: "5 * * * *"
args:
doSomething: true
dontDoSomething: false
testJobWithOutArgs:
class: App\Jobs\SendReminderEmail
cron: "15 * * * *"
The scheduler can but run as a single infinitely polling process:
./vendor/bin/schedule
Or it can be run as a single polling instance to be called from a cron job:
./vendor/bin/schedule --poll
The next milestone entails implementing the job queue system. This will allow for jobs to be pushed to the queue programmatically to be executed in the background.
Stay tuned for more updates on the Jobs roadmap.
