In this article, you will learn how to set up Laravel Queues/Jobs on production in ubuntu server. SO if you don't know how to do that then you are a right place. I hope you will enjoy this laravel queue:work on production tutorial. Let's start.

Step 1

First step you have to connect to your ubuntu server and go to your existing laravel project then run the below command to create required tables in the database.

php artisan queue:table

Then we need to migrate the tables with the help of the below command:

php artisan migrate

Step 2

We know that Laravel queues provide a unified queueing API across a variety of different queue backends, such as Amazon SQS, Redis, or even a relational database. So, we need to setup .env file to execute the jobs using database.

.env

QUEUE_DRIVER=database 
//or 
QUEUE_CONNECTION=database

Step 3

To automate the queue job we need to install a supervisor. So let's install it via command line.

sudo apt-get install supervisor

Now we have to create supervisor config file at /etc/supervisor/conf.d queue-worker.conf.

cd /etc/supervisor/conf.d
nano queue-worker.conf

queue-worker.conf

[program:queue-worker]
process_name = %(program_name)s_%(process_num)02d
command=php /var/www/html/your-project-folder/artisan queue:listen
autostart=true
autorestart=true
user=root
numprocs=1
redirect_stderr=true
stdout_logfile=/var/www/html/your-project-folder/public/worker.log

Then we need tp reread the supervisor the config file

supervisorctl reread

And now finally activate the process

supervisorctl update
