README

This package runs a queued job and a scheduled command once every 5 minutes and a route to check that this has happened successfully.

This route will return a 200 or a 503 HTTP status which is useful for monitoring software such as StatusCake.

Limitations

This package relies on the database queue driver being used.

Installation

Install the package via composer:

composer require hellomayaagency/laravel-heartbeat

Enable the scheduled heartbeat command:

// app/Console/Kernel.php

protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule)
{
    // ...

    // Note: don't change the interval!
    $schedule->command('heartbeat')->everyFiveMinutes();
}

Run the heartbeat command:

php artisan heartbeat

Add a route to the heartbeat status page:

// routes/web.php
Route::get('heartbeat', '\Maya\LaravelHeartbeat\Http\Controllers\HeartbeatController@index');

// or

Route::get('heartbeat', [HeartbeatController::class, 'index');

Usage

Navigate to the route you created above, e.g. example.com/heartbeat. You should see a status page.

The status page will return a 200 status page if everything is working as expected.

If problems are found with the schedule or queue a 503 status will be returned instead.
