Yii2 queue doesn't work

Yii 2.0 General Discussions

I need to make a delayed email sending, decided to use yii2-queue component for this. But it seem not to work. I’ve been trying to just write some data in file to text it and it stays empty…

The job class:

    <?php

    namespace app\models;

    use yii\base\Object;

    class WriteJob extends Object implements \yii\queue\Job
    {
        public $text;
        public $file;

        public function execute($queue)
        {
            file_put_contents($this->file, $this->text);
        }
    }

web.php /console.php:

    'aliases' => [
            '@bower' => '@vendor/bower-asset',
            '@npm'   => '@vendor/npm-asset',
    		'@img'   => 'web/i',
    		'@common/mail' => 'mail',
    		'@runtime/queue' => 'runtime/queue',
        ],

    'components' => [
    /*.......*/
    'queue' => [
                'class' => \yii\queue\file\Queue::class,
                'as log' => \yii\queue\LogBehavior::class,
                'path' => '@runtime/queue',
            ],

    ]

Controller:

/*.....*/
Yii::$app->queue->push(new WriteJob([
			'text' => 'test',
			'file' => Yii::$app->basePath . '/web/file.txt'
			]))->run();
/*..............*/

The file stays empty. Some runtime data appear though

Is job executed?

3

It seems no…
There were some .dat files in runtime\queue folder before, but now it’s empty…

4

How do you run queue? cronjob or daemon process?

5

Just the code I wrote… I have my yii2 project just locally in OpenServer on windows, so I have no cron… I’ll have to upload it on real linux server later and it should work, I don’t have all permissions on that server…

6

Then it’s as it should be. Queue doesn’t execute itself. Run yii queue/run from console. It will exectute scheduled jobs once.

7

Aren’t yii queue/run and Yii::$app->queue ->run() the same thing? Isn’t a way to run it without console? The thing is the project is on open server now and i’ll upload it on real linux server later.

I ran yii queue/listen now, it says “worker is started” but text files remains empty when I call the controller…

8

There is no way to run it without console. As far as I know, open server has console as well.

9

Do you have job files created?

10

I have some .data files - index.data, job1…job14.data

@samdark @tyhja-mitaton Hello, I’ve followed this trend, and it was very helpful. I’ve a yii2 advanced setup and I’m generating the job from the backend (I’m using the file driver). I’ve found that the jobs are being created under /backend/runtime/queue but when I run php yii queue I just get the following:
Jobs

  • waiting: 0
  • delayed: 0
  • reserved: 0
  • done: 0
    As the queue/run command runs at the console and not at the backend, how can I manage to send this jobs to console runtime directory instead of backend? Any setting I’m missing out? Or should I just create a OS job to move them to the desired location?

I’d really appreciate your help on this.
Cheers!
