Accessing SQS job data (receipt handle) from a Laravel queued console command - php

Question

I'm adding functionality to a pre-existing app, using Laravel 5.8.38 and the SQS queue driver.
I'm looking for a way to log the receipt handle of queue messages as they're processed, so that we can manually delete messages from the queue for jobs that have gone horribly wrong (without the receipt ID, we'd have to wait for the visibility timeout to be reached).
I'm not super familiar with Laravel and am trying to figure things out as I go. We have two types of queued jobs:
a custom class implementing Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue, that also uses the Illuminate\Queue\InteractsWithQueue, Illuminate\Foundation\Bus\Dispatchable and Illuminate\Bus\Queueable traits (our class gets queued directly)
a custom command, extending Illuminate\Console\Command, that runs via Illuminate\Foundation\Console\QueuedCommand
For the custom class, browsing through the source for InteractsWithQueue and Illuminate/Queue/Jobs/SqsJob I discovered I could access the receipt handle directly:
$sqsJob = $this->job->getSqsJob();
\Log::info("Processing SQS job {$sqsJob["MessageId"]} with handle {$sqsJob["ReceiptHandle"]}");
This works great! However, I can't figure out how to do a similar thing from the console command.
Laravel's QueuedCommand implements ShouldQueue as well as Illuminate\Bus\Queueable, so my current guess is that I'll need to extend this, use InteractsWithQueue, and retrieve and log the receipt handle from there. However if I do that, I can't figure out how I would modify Artisan::queue('app:command', $commandOptions); to queue my custom QueuedCommand class instead.
Am I almost there? If so, how can I queue my custom QueuedCommand class instead of the Laravel one? Or, is there a better way to do this?

Ok I had just posted this question and then realised a suggestion a colleague offered provided a way forward.
So, here's my solution in case it helps anyone else!
Laravel fires a Illuminate\Queue\Events\JobProcessing event when processing any new queue job. I just needed to register a listener in app/Providers/EventServiceProvider.php:
protected $listen = [
'Illuminate\Queue\Events\JobProcessing' => [
'App\Listeners\LogSQSJobDetails',
],
];
and then provide the listener to handle it:
namespace App\Listeners;
use Illuminate\Queue\Events\JobProcessing;
class LogSQSJobDetails
{
public function __construct()
{
}
public function handle(JobProcessing $event)
{
$sqsJob = $this->job->getSqsJob();
\Log::info("Processing SQS job {$sqsJob["MessageId"]} with handle {$sqsJob["ReceiptHandle"]}");
}
}
This works great - and means I can also now remove the addition to my custom class from earlier.
