Should I queue listener or notifications?

Well, it depends. If your listener itself is doing a heavy task you could queue them as well. If your listener is only performing the notification you might not have to queue it. You can also queue both, so the listener and the notification. Like I said it depends on how heavy the task is and what your needs are ;)

Will there be any delay in sending notifications if I queue both listeners and notifications?

@bobbybouwmann I was waiting for you reply. You answers in Laracasts has helped me out a lot. And this is the first time my answer is being replied by you. Thanks a lot. Please let me have the honor to chat with you a little more.

make sure you @mention someone if you update your question and want a followup

Will there be a delay? It depends how backlogged your queue is .

If you are running at 500 jobs on your queue and it takes 3 minutes to get to your queued listener then a notification is created but goes to the back of the queue, by which time there may be a further 500 jobs queued, and another 3 minute delay.

The numbers are just examples of course

Oh so it is queued again which may take more time depending upon the josbs to be processed. Thanks @snapey

If the listener just creates the notification then don't queue it (which is what Bobby said also)

@james_bhatta Snapey is correct. It's just a new job in the queue that will be processed in order depending on your setup.

You can also have a priority queue to process notifications faster, but it sounds to me that this will do ;) You notification will be handled within 2 sec of handling your listener ;)

Thank you guys
