Yii2 cronjobs extension

Easiest way to put crontab on your console scripts.

This extension is based on this. Thanks Yiivgeny.

But with a few changes:

• Work eith yii2
• Set config in params (not in phpDocs).

I transfer ​​settings of crontab in local settings(params) configuration, so that the application can be run on different servers with different sets of crontab.

Installation

• Step 1: The preferred way to install this extension is through composer.

Either run

php composer.phar require --prefer-dist denisogr/yii2-cronjobs "dev-master"

or add

"denisogr/yii2-cronjobs": "dev-master"

to the require section of your composer.json file.

• Step 2: Set aliase @runnerScript in console config. This absolutely path to runner script (I can not find another way to get runner script). Change path to runner script as your project.

Yii::setAlias('@runnerScript', dirname(dirname(dirname(__FILE__))) .'/yii');

• Step 3: Add to console config:

'controllerMap' => [
       'cron' => [
           'class' => 'denisog\cronjobs\CronController'
       ],
   ],

• Step 4: Add task to system scheduler (cron on unix, task scheduler on windows) to run every minute:

* * * * * /path/to/yii/application/protected/yiic cron

Usage

Add in params array with cron sets:

'cronJobs' =>[
        'test/example1' => [
            'cron'      => '* * * * *',            
        ],
	'test/example2' => [
            'cron'      => '10 * * * *',            
        ],

    ],

You can point any settings from this.
