README

A Laravel queue infrastructure package that preserves application execution context (tenant, school, user, module) when dispatching and processing queued jobs. Designed for multi-tenant and multi-school Laravel applications.

Why?

In multi-tenant or multi-school applications, queued jobs often need access to the same context (tenant, school, user, module) that was present when the job was originally dispatched. Without context propagation, each job would need to manually resolve this information, leading to duplicated code and potential inconsistencies.

This package provides a clean, extensible way to automatically capture and restore the application execution context when dispatching and processing queued jobs.

Installation

composer require schoolpalm/queued-jobs

Publish Configuration

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=queued-jobs-config

Run Migrations

php artisan migrate

Quick Start

1. Create a Context-Aware Job

Extend ContextAwareJob:

<?php

namespace App\Jobs;

use SchoolPalm\QueuedJobs\Jobs\ContextAwareJob;

class GenerateReport extends ContextAwareJob
{
    public function __construct(
        private readonly array $reportData
    ) {}

    public function handle(): void
    {
        // Context is automatically available
        $context = $this->getQueueContext();

        $schoolId = $context['school_id'];
        $userId   = $context['user_id'];
        $module   = $context['module'];

        // ... your job logic
    }
}

2. Register a Context Resolver

In your AppServiceProvider:

<?php

namespace App\Providers;

use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;
use SchoolPalm\QueuedJobs\Facades\QueuedJobs;

class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    public function boot(): void
    {
        QueuedJobs::resolveContextUsing(function () {
            return [
                'tenant_id' => tenancy()->tenant?->id,
                'school_id' => session('school_id'),
                'user_id'   => auth()->id(),
                'module'    => request()->route('module'),
                'metadata'  => [
                    'ip' => request()->ip(),
                ],
            ];
        });
    }
}

3. Register a Context Restorer

The restorer runs before each queued job executes, restoring the application state:

QueuedJobs::restoreContextUsing(function (QueueContext $context) {
    // Switch tenant database
    if ($context->tenantId()) {
        tenancy()->initialize($context->tenantId());
    }

    // Set current school
    if ($context->schoolId()) {
        session(['school_id' => $context->schoolId()]);
    }

    // Authenticate user
    if ($context->userId()) {
        auth()->loginUsingId($context->userId());
    }
});

4. Dispatch Jobs

Using the Facade (with fluent context overrides)

use SchoolPalm\QueuedJobs\Facades\QueuedJobs;

// Basic dispatch — context is captured automatically
QueuedJobs::job(new GenerateReport($data))->dispatch();

// With fluent context overrides
QueuedJobs::job(new GenerateReport($data))
    ->withTenant(1)
    ->withSchool(20)
    ->withUser(50)
    ->withModule('reports')
    ->withMetadata(['source' => 'api'])
    ->onQueue('high')
    ->onConnection('redis')
    ->delay(now()->addMinutes(5))
    ->dispatch();

Standard Laravel Dispatch

If the job is dispatched via GenerateReport::dispatch(), the context will NOT be attached automatically. Always use the QueuedJobs::job() facade to ensure context propagation.

Fluent API Reference

QueuedJobs::job(object $job): JobBuilder

Start building a job dispatch.

Method	Description
->withTenant(string|int $id)	Attach tenant context
->withSchool(string|int $id)	Attach school context
->withUser(string|int $id)	Attach user context
->withModule(string $module)	Attach module context
->withMetadata(array $data)	Attach arbitrary metadata
->withContext(array|QueueContext $ctx)	Attach full context object or array
->onConnection(?string $conn)	Set queue connection
->onQueue(?string $queue)	Set queue name
->delay($delay)	Set job delay
->dispatch()	Execute the dispatch

QueuedJobs::resolveContextUsing(Closure $callback)

Register a callback that captures the current application context.

QueuedJobs::restoreContextUsing(Closure $callback)

Register a callback that restores application context before job execution.

QueuedJobs::context(array|QueueContext $context)

Set global or default context.

Job Result Tracking

The package includes optional job result tracking with a database-backed results table.

Creating a Result

use SchoolPalm\QueuedJobs\Managers\JobResultManager;

$manager = app(JobResultManager::class);

$result = $manager->create($job, [
    'school_id' => 10,
    'user_id' => 5,
]);

Marking Completion / Failure

// Inside your job's handle() method
$this->completeResult(['file' => 'report.pdf', 'pages' => 10]);
$this->failResult('Processing failed: memory limit exceeded');

Querying Results

use SchoolPalm\QueuedJobs\Facades\QueuedJobs;

// Get results builder
$jobs = QueuedJobs::jobs();

// Filtering
$jobs->forSchool(10)
     ->forUser(5)
     ->forModule('reports')
     ->completed()
     ->latest();

// Execute
$results = $jobs->get();
$result  = $jobs->first();
$paginated = $jobs->paginate(20);
$count   = $jobs->count();
$exists  = $jobs->exists();

Context Serialization

Context is serialized with the job into the Laravel queue payload. The QueueContext value object is immutable and safely serializes/unserializes via PHP's native serialization. When the queue worker pops the job:

1. Laravel unserializes the job (including the queueContext array)
2. The RestoreJobContext middleware fires
3. The array context is converted back to a QueueContext value object
4. Your registered restoreContextUsing callback is invoked
5. Your job's handle() method runs with full context restored
