I'm trying to run a command the last day of the month at 06:00, I tried doing this
$schedule->command('crawl')->when(function () {
return \Carbon\Carbon::now()->endOfMonth()->isToday();
})->at('06:00');
It does run on the last day, but the "at" does not work. Any idea how I can get it to work?
I'd simply use the monthlyOn() schedule method, because it gives you the opportunity to point at a given day of the month and a daytime to execute the command. Using php's date() function to retrieve the count of days in a month, this becomes an enjoyable task:
->monthlyOn(date('t'), '6:00');
You can run this; dailyAt instead of at function
$schedule->command('crawl')->dailyAt('06:00')->when(function () {
return \Carbon\Carbon::parse('last day of last month')->isToday();
});
If you use Laravel version 7+ then you can use lastDayOfMonth inbuild method
$schedule->command('crawl')->lastDayOfMonth('06:00');
