Laravel Scheduling call controller

Question

I work with Laravel Task Scheduling, but I have a problem when I call some method from my controller.

protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule)
{
    $         


        

Answer 1

OK. I solved this problem. The problem was with Docker Cron container. Cron container was not linked with MySQL container. Thanks for all answers.

Answer 2

Also now I test with more simple function to insert new currency in database. Here is code:

public function handle()
    {
        $currency                = new Currency();
        $currency->currency_name = 'EUR';
        $currency->save();

        $this->info('New currency is successfully generated!');
    }

This function is from laravel/app/Console/Commands. I call from Kernel > schedule(). Not work.

When I insert simple log write to handle() function like:

File::put(base_path() . '/storage/logs/test_logs.txt', 'Test log ' . Carbon::now()->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') . PHP_EOL);

this works. But when I try to create new object from Models and save into db -> this not work.

Directly put this in schedule function in kernel.php file

$schedule->call('App\Http\Controllers\YourController@function')->everyMinute();

This will run after every minute

Note:

In localhost, you have to run it manually but on the server, you should try this command in your cronjob this will automatically call your controller function after every minute

php -d register_argc_argv=On /home/iflasity/public_html/foldername /artisan schedule:run > /dev/null 2>&1

cd /home/iflasity/public_html/foldername && php artisan schedule:run /dev/null 2>&1

Answer 4

I stumbled months ago with the same problem, until I could fix it. I use laravel 5.2 and the kernel call my drivers this way:

$schedule->call('App\Http\Controllers\MyController@MyAction')->everyMinute();

I hope this will help someone else ;)

For me, the first error looks like you need to run composer update, then composer dump-autoload.

If it works you will also get the second error, the 2002 error meaning is:

Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket" (see (Client Error Codes and Messages in MySQL docs).

You need to set your database configuration in your .env file
