Laravel 5.4 Queue Email - php

I'm trying to use Laravel Queues for sending emails using the database driver, I have already configured it, run the migration for the "jobs" table and when I run this:
Mail::to($user->email)->queue(new CompraRealizadaAdmin(Cart::content(), $monto_descuento, $envio, $user_array, $direccion, $compra));
A record is added on the "jobs" table, but, how do I run the queue on the database table?, I understand that for triggering it at the moment it is added, I will need to run the command php artisan queue:listen, or if I need to run all the ones that are still on queue, I will use php artisan queue:work.
But how do I run the command without the need to open terminal and keep it open until it has finished...?
I had the idea of creating a schedule and run it every minute and just execute the code: Artisan::call('queue:work'); but that does not work.
Any ideas?

Depending on your needs, preferences and your target OS you can use
supervisord (cross platform)
upstart / systemd (linux)
launchd (OS X)
or alike services to manage your queue worker processes.
In fact Laravel documentation explains in great detail how to install and configure supervisord for this.

It depends on which OS you are working on for Ubuntu or linux you can use supervisor and hup.
butt be careful you have to run hup every time you reboot your machine.
thats how you can run this command. hup php artisan queue:work.
Hope this helps

How can I run background tasks in Gitlab CICD?

How can I run a service-based command after the build process in gitlab-ci.yml?
For example, i'd like to run:
php artisan queue:listen --timeout=0 &
The issue is the build runs perpetually and does not finish as it waits for the results of this command (even though this command never finishes).
Is there anyway I can run it as a background task? I tried nohup with no luck.
As mentioned here:
Process started with Runner, even if you add nohup and & at the end, is marked with process group ID.
When the job is finished, the Runner is sending a kill signal to the whole process group.
So any process started directly from CI job will be terminated at job end.
Using a systenter code hereemd service (as in this same page) remains an option, if you control the target server.
With VonC's help - this is the approach I took.
I use Alpine Linux so slightly different to the link he provided, but same approach.
I created a file in /etc/init.d and gave it chmod +x permissions.
With the following contents:
#!/sbin/openrc-run
command="php /var/www/artisan queue:listen"
command_args="--timeout=0"
command_background=true
pidfile="/run/${RC_SVCNAME}.pid"
I then ran it with rc-service laravel-queue start within the gitlab-ci configuration file.

Laravel how to stop/restart workers of a specific queue?

I know you can stop all workers in Laravel using queue:restart. But I'm looking for a way to stop all workers working on a specific queue. Something like this:
php artisan queue:restart --queue=my_queue
As far as I read the documentation,
php artisan queue:clear redis --queue=emails
is only available for The SQS, Redis, and database queue drivers.
But this command is clearing, not stopping.

Running laravel queue:work as a background task in windows

I use supervisord to configure and run laravel queues as a background job on the linux machines. One of my customer can only use windows machine due to their company policy.
I want to run laravel queue as a background job on windows. I've came up with this solution below but I am not so sure if it is good way to do it.
forever -c php artisan queue:listen --tries=3
Anyone has tried it in production if yes how was experience with that or anyone has better solution with this situtation?
Any help would be highly appreciated.

Running a laravel cron job (locally, to test) using Task Scheduler in Windows 10

I want to run a laravel cron job in order to run a command on windows 10 using task scheduler, I tried to create a basic task in scheduler but it shows running but data doesnt add in db. When I run "php artisan schedule:run" it works perfectly. I am using Laravel and Homestead.
I have adding these two lines while creating the task in scheduler
C:\xampp\php\php.exe (why do we have to add this when I don't even use xampp anymore, so I think this is the part which is giving issues?????)
C:\projects\project-name\artisan schedule:run
I would really appreciate, if someone could guide me through this, thanks.
Update your task scheduler command to this:
C:\xampp\php\php.exe C:\projects\project-name\artisan schedule:run
C:\xampp\php\php.exe does not mean using xampp, we're just using php here which is coincidentally found inside your xampp folder, because we need the executable php to run the file artisan with the parameter schedule:run which is found in C:\projects\project-name\
You can add an environment variable for your executable php so you could just write the command as php C:\path\to\artisan schedule:run.
Also, try to see the logs of task scheduler, so you can see what it tried to do.
As per your issue. Yes, C:\xampp\php\php.exe causes an issue. Try typing in your cmd that command. What happens? It's just paused there. That's also what's happening in your scheduled task.

Laravel queued jobs don't appear in new relic if worker runs as daemon

I noticed that the queued jobs do not appear in new relic as transactions of any kind.
After digging for a bit I found that if I run my artisan queue workers "straight" they do appear just fine but if I run them as daemons (That's what I have set for my artisan queue:work commands in supervisord config) they do not.
Why does it work that way? Is there anything that can be done about it?
I wanna keep them with --daemon set to avoid framework bootstrapping for every single job. However being able to see what's going on in new relic is important as well.
Scheduled commands and regular http requests seem to be tracked just fine.
I'm running Laravel 5.2 on several forge servers with both php 5.6 and 7.0.
Thank you
