Symfony commands as cron jobs
=============================

[](#symfony-commands-as-cron-jobs)

Using this bundle you can manage cron jobs with yaml configuration of your Symfony application.

It:

- provides a simple way of running commands according to cron expressions
- supports command arguments, options and verbosity settings
- prints full output of running commands
- uses  to resolve cron expressions

Installing
==========

[](#installing)

Update composer.json:

```
composer require mkijak/cronjob-commands-bundle
```

Enable the bundle in Symfony application:

```
# config/bundles.php

Mkijak\CronJobCommandsBundle\CronJobCommandsBundle::class => ['all' => true],
```

Configuration
=============

[](#configuration)

It is recommended to set the timezone (default timezone is UTC and server settings aren't considered).

```
# config/packages/cron_job_commands.yaml
cron_job_commands:
    timezone: UTC
    schedule:
        command1:
            name: app:command #command name registered in symfony
            enabled: true #default: true
            cron_expression: "* * * * *" #supports also predefined keywords e. g. "@daily", see https://github.com/dragonmantank/cron-expression
            arguments:
                argument1name: value
                argument2name: value
            options:
                option1name: value
                option2name: value
            multivalue_options:
                option1name:
                    - value1
                    - value2
                option2name:
                    - value1
        command2:
            name: app:another_command
            cron_expression: "@daily"
```

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

Run the "trigger-command" once per minute. Consider using quiet mode for less output.

For cron: add to crontab (`crontab -e`):

```
* * * * * /path/to/symfony/bin/console cron_commands:trigger -q
```

In the quiet mode you can still display some messages from your commands setting visibility level as a second parameter of the writeln function (or 3rd parameter of the write function):

```
use Symfony\Component\Console\Output\OutputInterface;

/** @var OutputInterface $output */
$output->writeln('Message', OutputInterface::VERBOSITY_QUIET)
```

Requirements
============

[](#requirements)

- PHP 8.0 or above
- Symfony 5.0 or newer

Licence
=======

[](#licence)

*Symfony commands as cron jobs* is licenced under the MIT Licence.
