Task manager for Yii2

Installation

The preferred way to install this extension is through composer.

Either run

php composer.phar require --prefer-dist asmoday74/yii2-tasks "*"

or add

"asmoday74/yii2-tasks": "*"

to the require section of your composer.json file.

Configuration

To add a module to the project, add the following data in your configuration file:

    'modules' => [
        ...
        'tasks' => [
            'class' => 'asmoday74\tasks\Module',
            //optional config
            'jobsPath' => '@app/jobs', //path to job dir
            'maxExecutionTimeDirector' => 60, //maximum execution time of the director of the tasks
            'maxExecutionTimeWorker' => 600, //maximum task execution time. This value has priority in relation to the value established in the task itself.
            'minTimeRestart' => 60, //the minimum time before the restart of an erroneous task
            'sleepTime' => 1, //waiting time if there are no tasks, in seconds
            'deleteSuccessfulComplete' => true, //delete the task from the list after successful execution
            'deleteErrorTask' => true, //delete the task from the list after the end of attempts to execute
            'defaultMaxRestartCount' => 0 //the number of restart of the default task in case of error. 0 - endlessly
        ],
        ...
    ],

Migrations

After configure module, run the following command in the console:

$ php yii tasks/init

And select the operation "Apply all module migrations"

or execute

php yii migrate --migrationPath=@vendor/asmoday74/yii2-tasks/src/migrations

Launching a worker to perform tasks

To complete the tasks, you need to add a task to the task scheduler on the server (cron, task scheduler or etc). For example CRON:

* * * * * /path/to/php /your/site/dir/yii tasks/run > /dev/null 2>&1

This command will start the stream director to perform tasks from the list once per minute.

When starting, you can also use the following keys:
--single - get the list of tasks only once (disable the loop)
--show-log - output logs to the console
--one - execute only the first task from the list
