Laravel 4 Database Queue Driver

Push a function/closure to the Database queue.

This is a real queue driver, like beanstalkd or redis one. You need a daemon like supervisor or similar to listen to your queue.

Install

Add the package to the require section of your composer.json and run composer update

"davelip/laravel-database-queue": "0.4.*"

Add the Service Provider to the providers array in config/app.php

'Davelip\Queue\DatabaseServiceProvider',

I suggest to publish migrations, so they are copied to your regular migrations

$ php artisan migrate:publish davelip/laravel-database-queue

And then run migrate

$ php artisan migrate 

You should now be able to use the database driver in config/queue.php

'default' => 'database',

'connections' => array(
    ...
    'database' => array(
        'driver' => 'database',
        'queue' => 'queue-name', // optional, can be null or any string
    ),
    ...
}

It work in the same as beanstalkd or redis queue listener.

Listen for new job:

$ php artisan queue:listen
