iron-io/laraworker

LaraWorker is a helper package that makes integrating your Laravel application with Iron.io's IronWorker very easy!

IronWorker makes it super easy to add queuing and background processing to your Laravel applications.

Installation

1. Run composer require iron-io/laraworker.

2. Set Iron.io credentials in app/config/queue.php (or config/queue.php in Laravel 5.0 and higher) and set default to iron --> 'default' => 'iron',

   To get your Iron.io credentials, signup for a free account at Iron.io.

3. Install the IronWorker artisan commands for upload and run

   php vendor/iron-io/laraworker/LaraWorker.php -i true

   This script will also copy worker example ExampleLaraWorker.php to the workers directory in the root of your project.

Uploading Workers

IronWorker is a cloud service that runs your Laravel app and waits for jobs to be queued up.

To upload all workers:

php artisan ironworker:upload --worker_name=* --exec_worker_file_name=*

To upload a single worker:

php artisan ironworker:upload --worker_name=ExampleLaraWorker --exec_worker_file_name=ExampleLaraWorker.php

Queuing up jobs

From the console:

php artisan ironworker:run --queue_name=ExampleLaraWorker

From inside your laravel application, insert this code into your app:

Queue::pushRaw("This is Hello World payload :)", 'ExampleLaraWorker'));

To access the functionality of IronMQ PHP lib use IronMq class instead of Laravel Queue

use Illuminate\Encryption\Encrypter;
....

$crypt = new Encrypter(Config::get('app.key'));

$ironmq = new \IronMQ(array(
    'token' => Config::get('queue.connections.iron.token', 'xxx'),
    'project_id' => Config::get('queue.connections.iron.project', 'xxx')
)); 
$ironmq->postMessages($queue_name, array(
        return $crypt->encrypt("This is Hello World payload_1"),
        return $crypt->encrypt("This is Hello World payload_2")
    )
);
