README

A Laravel package for real-time monitoring of queues with stats on processing time, failed jobs, and retry status.

Features

• Real-time queue monitoring.
• Detailed stats on processing time and retries.
• Notifications for failed jobs.

Installation

1. Require the package via Composer

   composer require MattYeend/queue-monitor

2. Publish the configuration, views, and migrations:

   php artisan vendor:publish --provider="MattYeend\QueueMonitoring\QueueMonitoringServiceProvider"

3. Run the migrations to create the necessary database table:

   php artisan migrate

4. Access the dashboard at /queue-monitor (or a custom route if configured)

Usage

1. Queue Monitoring Dashboard Once installed, the package provides a monitoring dashboard accessible at /queue-monitor (or a custom route specified in config/queue-monitor.php). The dashboard displays:

• The list of queues being monitored.
• The number of jobs processed.
• The number of failed jobs.
• The average processing time for each queue.

1. Automatically Updating Queue Statistics To update queue statistics after job processing:

• Inject the QueueMonitorService into your job classes or relevant services.
• Use the updateQueueStatus method to log the queue name, processing time, and failure status. Example Integration in a Job:

use MattYeend\QueueMonitoring\Services\QueueMonitorService;

class ExampleJob implements ShouldQueue
{
    public function handle(QueueMonitorService $service)
    {
        $queueName = 'example-queue';
        $startTime = microtime(true);

        try {
            // Performs job processing
        } catch (\Exception $e) {
            $service->updateQueueStatus($queueName, 0, true); // Log a failed job
            throw $e;
        }

        $endTime = microtime(true);
        $processingTime = ($endTime - $StartTime) * 1000; // Convert to milliseconds
        $service->updateQueueStatus($queueName, $processingTime, false); // Log a successful job
    }
}

1. Customising the Dashboard You can customise the dashboard view by modifying the published Blade file resources/views/vendor/queue-monitor/dashboard.blade.php
2. Custom Route The change the route for the dashboard, edit the dashboard_route value in the configuration file 'dashboard_route' => '/admin/queue-status'
3. Notifications for Failed Jobs To enable email notifications for failed jobs:

• Add the following to your .env file: QUEUE_MONITOR_NOTIFICATION_EMAIL=devops@yourcompany.com
• The configured email address will receive alerts whenever a job fails in a monitored queue.

Configuration

.env File

To configure email notifications for failed jobs, add the following line to your .env file:

QUEUE_MONITOR_NOTIFICATION_EMAIL=devops@yourcompany.com

This will be used to send notifications for failed jobs. If not set, it will default to admin@example.com.

Custom Dashboard Route

To change the default URL route, modify the config/queue-monitor.php file. For example

'dashboard_route' => '/admin/queue-status',
