Worker bundle

A Symfony bundle that adds worker functionality to your project, using Beanstalkd as the message queue.

Installation

For this process, we assume you have a Beanstalk server up and running.

Install via Composer:

$ composer require treehouselabs/worker-bundle

Enable the bundle:

# app/AppKernel.php
class AppKernel extends Kernel
{
    public function registerBundles()
    {
        $bundles = [
            // ...

            new TreeHouse\WorkerBundle\TreeHouseWorkerBundle(),
        ];

        // ...
    }

    // ...
}

Configuration

Define a queue and you're good to go:

# app/config/config.yml

tree_house_worker:
  queue:
    server: localhost

The bundle also supports the PheanstalkBundle, if you're using that:

# app/config/config.yml

tree_house_worker:
  pheanstalk: leezy.pheanstalk

Basic Usage

The bundle creates a QueueManager service, which you can use to manage jobs. The manager has services registered to execute specific tasks, called executors. An executor receives a job from the QueueManager and processes it.

Defining executors

First you need to register an executor, and tag it as such:

# src/AppBundle/Executor/HelloWorldExecutor.php

use TreeHouse\WorkerBundle\Executor\AbstractExecutor;

class HelloWorldExecutor extends AbstractExecutor
{
    public function getName()
    {
        return 'hello.world';
    }

    public function configurePayload(OptionsResolver $resolver)
    {
        $resolver->setRequired(0);
    }

    public function execute(array $payload)
    {
        $name = array_shift($payload);

        # process stuff here, in this example we just print something
        echo 'Hello, ' . $name;

        return true;
    }
}

# app/config/services.yml
app.executor.hello_world:
  class: AppBundle/Executor/HelloWorldExecutor
  tags:
    - { name: tree_house.worker.executor }

Scheduling jobs

Now you can add jobs, either via code or using the worker:schedule command:

In your application's code:

$queueManager = $container->get('tree_house.worker.queue_manager');
$queueManager->add('hello.world', ['Peter']);

Using the command:

php app/console worker:schedule hello.world Peter

Working jobs

A worker can now receive and process these jobs via the console:

php app/console worker:run

# prints:
# Working hello.world with payload ["Peter"]
# Hello, Peter
# Completed job in 1ms with result: true

You can run workers by adding them to your crontab, creating a Supervisor program for it, or whatever your preferred method is.
