How I get Queues to work with AWS Elastic Beanstalk Worker Tiers?

Insight anyone?

bump

I have the same problem. It'd be great if someone who knows how the SQS driver works could chime in with a hint.

This would be awesome if there is a series about AWS of setting up of: Web tier + Worker Tier + S3 Storage + RDS. Then you have almost unlimited scalability of a web app with low pricing

I'm new to Laravel. But it seems like you'd have to get this function to be called somehow:

https://github.com/laravel/framework/blob/5.2/src/Illuminate/Queue/Worker.php#L198

framework/src/Illuminate/Queue/Worker.php public function process($connection, Job $job, $maxTries = 0, $delay = 0) { }

Pass $connection and Job $job.

$job could probably be looked up by the SQS Request Headers when Elastic Beanstalk's Workers Environment pings your EC2 server. It'll pass over everything related to the message, there is likely a job_id in it. We've use the workers environment before, but I've never used it on Laravel.

Then just figure out how to pass over the $connection.

Anybody got this issue working? Would love to use the AWS Elastic Beanstalk worker environment for handling my SQS based queue.

Would love to ear about this.

Thanks!

Need this as well, and it seems that there are no ready-to-use solutions. Therefore, I'm going to create a package :) https://github.com/dusterio/laravel-aws-worker

First version should be ready within a week, I will confirm here. Looking forward to beta testers

Ok guys, I managed to get it up and running - both scheduled tasks and queued jobs. Same link above :)

Would love to get this to work with spot fleets!

would be great to have a series about AWS worker and how to set it up with Laravel.

@GhaithAli maybe I'll make a free video on YouTube. the package I made a year ago seems to be the most popular package for this purpose currently :)

@dusterio That would be great. Would appreciate if you link the video here when done.

Thanks.

@dusterio I just installed your package and it seems pretty straight forward. One question I have though. Should I define the routes in my web.php also? or how can I work with the data posted back to me from the SQS?

I am doing something like this now in the web.php:

Route::post('/worker/queue',['uses'=>'WorkerController@callWorker']);

Thanks again.

@GHAITHALI - No need to create if you use that package. package handles itself.
