Thus make sure App/Jobs folder is already there for this file to successfully move from package to your project. Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) 1. Add the following variables to your **.env** file. This are just **sample** key:values , please update them as per your configuration ``` QUEUE_CONNECTION=sqs-fifo SQS_KEY=AKIA21212wsxbuXEJ5RN71212342fvcds12433454657UU4CHSN6V1212 SQS_SECRET=y34380laT23232323212121343430hHQYEsU9VyUF7Qkad8VXqzx-0SQkAdVcR8hK6 SQS_QUEUE=IndexingVideo.fifo SQS_REGION=us-east-2 SQS_PREFIX=https://sqs.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/ ``` 2. Add the following to your **app/queue.php** under **connections** array: ``` 'sqs-fifo' => [ 'driver' => 'sqs-fifo', 'key' => env('AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID'), 'secret' => env('AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'), 'prefix' => env('SQS_PREFIX', 'https://sqs.amazonaws.com/your-account-id'), 'queue' => env('SQS_QUEUE', 'your-queue-name'), 'suffix' => env('SQS_SUFFIX'), 'region' => env('AWS_DEFAULT_REGION', 'us-east-1'), 'group' => 'default', 'deduplicator' => 'unique' ] ``` Heroku Worker Setup ------------------- [](#heroku-worker-setup) You need to include the following worker in your Procfile ``` worker: php artisan queue:restart && php artisan queue:work --tries=3 ``` This will restart and put the queue to work whenever your application starts. Heroku Worker Configuration --------------------------- [](#heroku-worker-configuration) To scale up heroku , and use more than 1 worker, you have to use the following command: ``` heroku ps:scale web=1 worker=5 ``` In this way 1 Web Dyno and 5 Worker Dynos will be deployed. Also please note if you are using Free or hobby tier on Heroku running this command will give the following error > Cannot update to more than 1 Free size dynos per process type. So you have to upgrade to above free and hobby tier. You can use the following command to see worker logs: ``` heroku logs --tail --ps worker ``` this will print all the logs of the worker as shown below in the screenshot [![enter image description here](https://github.com/shujahm/video-indexing/raw/master/documents/Screenshot1.png?raw=true)](https://github.com/shujahm/video-indexing/blob/master/documents/Screenshot1.png?raw=true) To kill or downscale the workers you have to run the following: ``` heroku ps:scale web=1 worker=0 ``` in this way all the workers will be shutdown and after that you can scale back to any number of workers by running old command of ``` heroku ps:scale web=1 worker=5 ``` Also note , when you change your code in the JOB file, you need to follow the above process again as workers cache the code in each of the JOB files it runs. so its required to kill/destroy them and deploy new workers instead which will take up the new version of the code file. ### Health Score 19 — LowBetter than 10% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity12 Limited adoption so far Community7 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity32 Early-stage or recently created project Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
