I'm creating a custom command which will truncate a table every thirty minutes in the console kernel (for development purposes). I want to run another right after the previous command.
P.S: I have an if statement which prevents running these commands on the production server.
$schedule->command('db:seed')->after(function () use ($schedule) : void {
$schedule->command('my-command:remove-users-from-tables')
->everyThirtyMinutes()
->environments(['demo', 'local']);
});
I expect to run the seeder right after "my-command" runs successfully every thirty minutes. However, in this way, only db:seed
runs.
I have checked the source code for Illuminate\Console\Scheduling\Schedule class.
I think when we say:
$schedule->command(...);
The artisan command will be scheduled, not run straightaway.
So when you write like this:
$schedule->command('first-command')->after(function () use ($schedule) {
$schedule->command('second-command');
});
The second command will be registered, not run right after the first command.
So the best approach that I can think of is run the second command inside the first command according to this link
You might try something like this:
namespace App\Console\Commands;
use Illuminate\Console\Command;
class RemoveUsersFromTable extends Command
{
public function handle()
{
// Do something to remove users from table.
$this->call('db:seed');
}
}
