I have a command class like this.
class MyCommand extends Command {
protected $signature = 'mycommand';
}
Then run this through the queue
Artisan::queue('mycommand');
A worker is running for multiple jobs php artisan queue:work --timeout=120
Normally, we can set a custom timeout for a job class like this
class MyJob implements ShouldQueue {
public $timeout = 240; // custom timeout
}
But how can I achieve this in a Command class properly?
The reason Artisan::queue isn't working for you is because the actual job that gets dispatched is: Illuminate\Foundation\Console\QueuedCommand;
Check out the queue method on the \Illuminate\Foundation\Console\Kernel class
Instead, you should use the Dispatchable trait and implement ShouldQueue while using the ::dispatch() method.
Here's a simple Command doing so:
<?php
namespace App\Console\Commands;
use Illuminate\Console\Command;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Bus\Dispatchable;
class TestCommand extends Command implements ShouldQueue
{
use Dispatchable;
protected $signature = 'test:command';
protected $description = 'Command description';
public $timeout = 3;
public function handle()
{
$count = 0;
while (true) {
sleep(1);
dump($count++);
}
}
}
A test to dispatch:
/** @test */ // test
public function test(){
// given
TestCommand::dispatch();
// when
// then
}
and the output of the worker (using Horizon)
