WP Job Scheduler
================

[](#wp-job-scheduler)

> 🚧 This package is still work in progress

This package is an attempt to make job dispatching and scheduling easier in WordPress.

Inspired by the syntax of Laravel and using [Action Scheduler](https://github.com/woocommerce/action-scheduler/) from WooCommerce, for more reliable handeling.

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require jeffreyvanrossum/wp-job-scheduler
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Setup

[](#setup)

Within your theme or plugin, add:

```
WPJobScheduler::instance()
    ->projectRootPath(__DIR__)
    ->scheduler(function() {
        ExampleJob::schedule('hourly');
    })
    ->boot();
```

### Dispatching single jobs

[](#dispatching-single-jobs)

```
ExampleJob::dispatch();
```

You may pass a callback to do some changes on the job before it is dispatched:

```
ExampleJob::dispatch(function($job) {
    $job->withDelay(30);
});
```

You may also pass some initial constructor arguments:

```
ExampleJob::dispatch(function($job) {
    $job->withDelay(30);
}, ['foo' => 'bar']);
```

Example Job
-----------

[](#example-job)

```
class ExampleJob implements Jobable
{
    use IsJob, Schedulable, Dispatchable;

    public function handle()
    {
        // the actual handling of the job
    }

    public function before(): void
    {
        // before the job has been handled
    }

    public function after(): void
    {
        // after the job has been handled
    }

    public function catch(Throwable $e): void
    {
        // do something with exception
    }
}
```
