Job queues for WordPress.

Install
-------

[](#install)

The recommended way to install this library in your project is by loading it through Composer:

```
composer require deliciousbrains/wp-queue
```

It is highly recommended to prefix wrap the library class files using [PHP-Scoper](https://packagist.org/packages/humbug/php-scoper), to prevent collisions with other projects using this same library.

Prerequisites
-------------

[](#prerequisites)

WP\_Queue requires PHP **7.3+**.

The following database tables need to be created:

```
CREATE TABLE {$wpdb->prefix}queue_jobs (
    id bigint(20) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
    job longtext NOT NULL,
    attempts tinyint(3) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
    reserved_at datetime DEFAULT NULL,
    available_at datetime NOT NULL,
    created_at datetime NOT NULL,
    PRIMARY KEY (id)
);
```

```
CREATE TABLE {$wpdb->prefix}queue_failures (
    id bigint(20) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
    job longtext NOT NULL,
    error text DEFAULT NULL,
    failed_at datetime NOT NULL,
    PRIMARY KEY (id)
);
```

Alternatively, you can call the `wp_queue_install_tables()` helper function to install the tables. If using WP\_Queue in a plugin you may opt to call the helper from within your `register_activation_hook`.

Jobs
----

[](#jobs)

Job classes should extend the `WP_Queue\Job` class and normally only contain a `handle` method which is called when the job is processed by the queue worker. Any data required by the job should be passed to the constructor and assigned to a public property. This data will remain available once the job is retrieved from the queue. Let's look at an example job class:

```
