EdgarCronBundle

Extend

This bundle offers possibility to transform Command into Cron or simply create Cron like a Command

Command class

namespace ...;

use Edgar\Cron\Cron\AbstractCron;
use Symfony\Component\Console\Input\InputArgument;
use Symfony\Component\Console\Input\InputInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Console\Output\OutputInterface;

class FooCommand extends AbstractCron
{
    protected function configure()
    {
        $this
            ->setName('your:cron:foo')
            ->addArgument('foo', InputArgument::REQUIRED, 'foo argument')
            ->setDescription('Your cron foo');
    }

    protected function execute(InputInterface $input, OutputInterface $output)
    {
        $output->writeln('start foo');
        $output->writeln('foo argument : ' . $this->getArgument($input, 'foo'));
        $output->writeln('end foo');
    }
}

• AbstractCron: replace "Command" or "ContainerWareCommand" with this abstract class
• getArgument: replace "$input->getArgument(...)" with "$this->getArgument(...)"

You can override "CronAbstract" properties to define customer cron expression by default "* * * * *" :

• minute
• hour
• dayOfMonth
• month
• dayOfWeek

Declare your command (cron) as a service

# Resources/config/services.yml
parameters:
    your.cron.foo.class: Your\Bundle\Command\FooCommand
    
services:
    your.cron.foo:
        class: %your.cron.foo.class%
        tags:
            - { name: edgar.cron, alias: foo, expression: "* * * * *", priority: 200, arguments: "foo:fooarg" }

• Your command (cron) is tagged with "edgar.cron".
• You should define an alias
• priority is not mandatory
• expression is not mandatory
• expression format is : m h d dm dw
• arguments is not mandatory
• arguments format is : arg1:value1 arg2:value2 ...
