README

This package allows for easily temporarily locking your scripts execution.

It might come in handy in cases such as CRON jobs that connect with unreliable APIS, where you're not 100% sure if your script won't fail at some point.

Requirements

This package requires:

• PHP >= 7.0.0
• Laravel 5.3 || 5.4

Installation

1. $ composer require desmart/laravel-padlock
2. Add DeSmart\Padlock\ServiceProvider to your config/app.php:

        /*
         * Package Service Providers...
         */
        DeSmart\Padlock\ServiceProvider::class,

1. $ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="DeSmart\Padlock\ServiceProvider"
2. Configure in config/padlock.php - choose between Database and Filesystem driver

Example usage

This package's purpose is to protect your script from being run on multiple threads.

It is useful for long-time backend jobs such as handling queries, or harvesting data from external APIs.

class FooCommand extends \Illuminate\Console\Command
{
    protected $signature = 'foo:bar';

    protected $description = 'Foo command utilizing Padlock';

    /** @var PadlockHandler */
    private $padlockHandler;

    const PADLOCK_SCRIPT = 'FooCommand';

    /** 30 seconds padlock time to live - after that your padlock will be unlocked */
    const PADLOCK_TTL = 30;

    /**
     * FooCommand constructor.
     * @param \DeSmart\Padlock\PadlockHandler $padlockHandler
     */
    public function __construct(\DeSmart\Padlock\PadlockHandler $padlockHandler)
    {
        parent::__construct();

        $this->padlockHandler = $padlockHandler;
    }

    public function handle()
    {
        if (true === $this->padlockHandler->isLocked(self::PADLOCK_SCRIPT, self::PADLOCK_TTL)) {
            echo "Padlock exists, script locked." . PHP_EOL;

            return;
        }

        $this->padlockHandler->lock(self::PADLOCK_SCRIPT);
        
        // do your stuff
        
        $this->padlockHandler->unlock(self::PADLOCK_SCRIPT);
    }
}
