You can use the existing Laravel cron job scheduling to fulfill your specific requirement.
Please refer following Laravels official documentation
https://laravel.com/docs/5.8/scheduling#scheduling-queued-jobs
I'll show a simple example to get an idea about this configuration.
php artisan make:command DailyUpdate
above command will create a class component in the following location
app/Console/Commands directory.
Generated class file will be similar to below,
<?php
namespace App\Console\Commands;
use Illuminate\Console\Command;
class DailyUpdate extends Command
{
/**
* The name and signature of the console command.
*
* #var string
*/
protected $signature = 'command:name';
/**
* The console command description.
*
* #var string
*/
protected $description = 'Command description';
/**
* Create a new command instance.
*
* #return void
*/
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
/**
* Execute the console command.
*
* #return mixed
*/
public function handle()
{
//
}
}
After that change the following according to your requirement.
protected $signature = 'command:name';
protected $description = ‘Command description’;
Inside the handle() you can place the implementation that you need to repeat on a scheduled basis.
public function handle() {
// implementation
}
After all the changes, you need to register that command.
In app/console/kernal.php change the configuration as follows,
protected $commands = [
Commands\DailyUpdate::class
];
protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule)
{
$schedule->command('hour:update')
->daily();
}
