Actions are a way of structuring your business logic in Laravel. This package adds easy support to make them queueable.
$myAction->onQueue()->execute();
You can specify a queue name.
$myAction->onQueue('my-favorite-queue')->execute();
We invest a lot of resources into creating best in class open source packages. You can support us by buying one of our paid products.
We highly appreciate you sending us a postcard from your hometown, mentioning which of our package(s) you are using. You'll find our address on our contact page. We publish all received postcards on our virtual postcard wall.
You can install the package via composer:
composer require spatie/laravel-queueable-action
If you want to know about the reasoning behind actions and their asynchronous usage, you should read the dedicated blog post: https://stitcher.io/blog/laravel-queueable-actions.
You can use the following Artisan command to generate queueable and synchronous action classes on the fly.
php artisan make:action MyAction [--sync]
Here's an example of queueable actions in use:
class MyAction
{
use QueueableAction;
public function __construct(
OtherAction $otherAction,
ServiceFromTheContainer $service
) {
// Constructor arguments can come from the container.
$this->otherAction = $otherAction;
$this->service = $service;
}
public function execute(
MyModel $model,
RequestData $requestData
) {
// The business logic goes here, this can be executed in an async job.
}
}
class MyController
{
public function store(
MyRequest $request,
MyModel $model,
MyAction $action
) {
$requestData = RequestData::fromRequest($myRequest);
// Execute the action on the queue:
$action->onQueue()->execute($model, $requestData);
// Or right now:
$action->execute($model, $requestData);
}
}
The package also supports actions using the __invoke()
method. This will be detected automatically. Here is an example:
class MyInvokeableAction
{
use QueueableAction;
public function __invoke(
MyModel $model,
RequestData $requestData
) {
// The business logic goes here, this can be executed in an async job.
}
}
The actions using the __invoke()
method should be added to the queue the same way as explained in the examples above, by running the execute()
method after the onQueue()
method.
$myInvokeableAction->onQueue()->execute($model, $requestData);
The package provides some test assertions in the Spatie\QueueableAction\Testing\QueueableActionFake
class. You can use them in a PhpUnit test like this:
/** @test */
public function it_queues_an_action()
{
Queue::fake();
(new DoSomethingAction)->onQueue()->execute();
QueueableActionFake::assertPushed(DoSomethingAction::class);
}
Don't forget to use Queue::fake()
to mock Laravel's queues before using the QueueableActionFake
assertions.
The following assertions are available:
QueueableActionFake::assertPushed(string $actionClass);
QueueableActionFake::assertPushedTimes(string $actionClass, int $times = 1);
QueueableActionFake::assertNotPushed(string $actionClass);
Feel free to send a PR if you feel any of the other QueueFake
assertions are missing.
You can chain actions by wrapping them in the ActionJob
.
Here's an example of two actions with the same arguments:
use Spatie\QueueableAction\ActionJob;
$args = [$userId, $data];
app(MyAction::class)
->onQueue()
->execute(...$args)
->chain([
new ActionJob(AnotherAction::class, $args),
]);
The ActionJob
takes the action class or instance as the first argument followed by an array of the action's own arguments.
If you want to change what tags show up in Horizon for your custom actions you can override the tags()
function.
class CustomTagsAction
{
use QueueableAction;
// ...
public function tags() {
return ['action', 'custom_tags'];
}
}
Middleware where action job passes through can be added by overriding the middleware()
function.
class CustomTagsAction
{
use QueueableAction;
// ...
public function middleware() {
return [new RateLimited()];
}
}
In short: constructor injection allows for much more flexibility. You can read an in-depth explanation here: https://stitcher.io/blog/laravel-queueable-actions.
