README

This package allows you to connect to Resque when using Queue.

Requirements

• PHP 5.5+
• Illuminate\Config 4.1+
• Illuminate\Queue 4.1+
• Resque 1.2
• ResqueScheduler 1.1 (Optional)

Installation

First you need to add the following to your project's composer.json:

"require": {
	"awellis13/laravel-resque": "1.1.x"
}

Now you need to run the following to install the package:

composer update

Next you need to delete the 'Illuminate\Redis\RedisServiceProvider', service provider and add the following service providers to your app/config/app.php:

'Awellis13\Resque\ServiceProviders\ResqueServiceProvider',
'Awellis13\Resque\ServiceProviders\RedisServiceProvider'

Now you need to add the following to your /app/config/queue.php "connections" section:

"resque" => [
	"driver" => "resque"
]

If you wish to use this driver as your default Queue driver you will need to set the following as your "default" drive in app/config/queue.php:

"default" => "resque",

Usage

If you choose to not use this driver as your default Queue driver you can call a Queue method on demand by doing:

Queue::connection('resque')->push('JobName', ['name' => 'Andrew']);

Enqueing a Job

Queue::push('JobName', ['name' => 'Andrew']);

Tracking a Job

$token = Queue::push('JobName', ['name' => 'Andrew'], true);
$status = Queue::getStatus($token);

Enqueing a Future Job

$when = time() + 3600; // 1 hour from now
Queue::later($when, 'JobName', ['name' => 'Andrew']);
