Periodically schedule a job to send a heartbeat to a monitoring system.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Require this package with composer:

```
composer require exolnet/laravel-heartbeat
```

If you don't use package auto-discovery, add the service provider to the `providers` array in `config/app.php`:

```
Exolnet\Heartbeat\HeartbeatServiceProvider::class
```

And the facade to the `facades` array in `config/app.php`:

```
'Heartbeat' => Exolnet\Heartbeat\HeartbeatFacade::class
```

### Configuration

[](#configuration)

In order to edit this package's default configuration (where for example you can define presets and configure queue monitoring), you may execute:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Exolnet\Heartbeat\HeartbeatServiceProvider"
```

After that, the configuration file `config/heartbeat.php` will be created. This file contains all the options that can be configured for this package. The default configuration file [can be found here](config/heartbeat.php).

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Sending Signals

[](#sending-signals)

#### Using The Heartbeat Facade

[](#using-the-heartbeat-facade)

You may send heartbeat signals via the `Heartbeat` facade. To do so, specify the channel you want to use and call the `signal` method with the arguments required by this channel. For example, with the `Http` channel, it may look like this:

```
Heartbeat::channel('http')->signal('https://beats.envoyer.io/heartbeat/example');
```

Alternatively, you may send the same signal using method helpers defined in the `Heartbeat` facade by calling the driver method directly:

```
Heartbeat::http('https://beats.envoyer.io/heartbeat/example');
```

#### Using Artisan

[](#using-artisan)

Heartbeat can also be used with the `heartbeat` Artisan command. To do so, specify the channel and specify the channel's arguments in the same order as their `signal` method. Here two examples of how to use it:

```
php artisan heartbeat preset preset-name
php artisan heartbeat http https://beats.envoyer.io/heartbeat/example
```

### Specifying Presets

[](#specifying-presets)

The handy `preset` channel allows you to define all your heartbeat configuration in the configuration file. First, let's look at an example of a `preset` configuration:

```
'presets' => [
    'envoyer' => [
        'channel' => 'http',
        'url' => 'https://beats.envoyer.io/heartbeat/example',
    ],
]
```

This configuration can now be used by the `preset` channel to invoke the signal method on the `http` channel:

```
Heartbeat::preset('envoyer');
```

Heartbeat's default configuration list for each channel all the parameters required.

### Queue Monitoring

[](#queue-monitoring)

Heartbeat can also be used to monitor your Laravel queue system. This feature is enabled by default when you have Laravel's scheduler enabled. The preset `queue` is used and a file named `queue.heartbeat` will be created in your `storage/app` folder every fifteen minutes.

To configure this, just publish the package configuration and update the `queue` preset.

### Available Channels

[](#available-channels)

#### Disk

[](#disk)

Channel used to store heartbeats in a Laravel Filesystem disk.

#### File

[](#file)

Channel used to store heartbeats in a file

#### Http

[](#http)

Channel used to make a heartbeat by calling a url

### Custom Channels

[](#custom-channels)

Heartbeat ships with a handful of channels, but you may want to write your own drivers to deliver signals via other channels. In order to do so, define a class that contains a `signal` method. This method should receive as many parameters that you need to send the signal:
