Periodically schedule a job to send a heartbeat to a monitoring system.
Require this package with composer:
composer require exolnet/laravel-heartbeat
If you don't use package auto-discovery, add the service provider to the providers array in config/app.php:
Exolnet\Heartbeat\HeartbeatServiceProvider::class
And the facade to the facades array in config/app.php:
'Heartbeat' => Exolnet\Heartbeat\HeartbeatFacade::class
In order to edit the default configuration (where for e.g. you can find schedule and presets) for this package you may execute:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Exolnet\Heartbeat\HeartbeatServiceProvider"
After that, config/heartbeat.php will be created. Inside this file you will find all the fields that can be edited in this package.
The default configuration file can be found here : config/heartbeat.php
Laravel Heartbeat should be working right after the service provider is loaded.
By default Laravel Heartbeat is configure to use queue and the scheduler to create heartbeats. It will store it's files on Laravel's public disk. If you want a dedicated disk you should add a disk to app/config/filesystems.php and change the disk option in the Queue preset
...
'presets' => [

'queue' => [
...
'disk' => 'local',
...
],
