Be part of JetBrains PHPverse 2026 on June 9 – a free online event bringing PHP devs worldwide together.
I want to generate all due invoices in particular time period. basically i read this documentation. https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/scheduling#scheduling-artisan-commands
we can run php artisan command in our localhost
php artisan schedule:work
Here is my question .
If i run this project on centos8 server. do i need to add additional configuration to that place ?
Please explain me .
@ddsameera For the easiest way to manage everything, I believe to install Horizon . It will provide you a nice interface and finally, you just run the command on your server- php artisan queue:work.
That's it.
You will get so many tutorials about it. I suggest the following tutorials that includes the production server also-
@tisuchi thats queue workers not schedule work
@ddsameera on your centos server you need to setup a cron job that runs php artisan schedule:work once every minute. When it runs, it checks the time to see if any work is scheduled for that minute.
Setting up your crontab is in the docs
@snapey : Are you talking about this ? https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/scheduling#schedule-frequency-options
@snapey , how could i implement it on Production server ? do i need to setup any additonal things?

Further reading if unfamiliar with crontab

I always add the scheduler to the same user as the web server (usually www-data) so that there are no ownership issues for files created by the scheduled task
@snapey my bad man. Read wrongly. TQ for correction :)
