在Laravel 5中调度应用程序/命令

Here is the SendBirthdayEmailCommand command created under /App/Commands/ directory

class SendBirthdayEmailCommand extends Command implements ShouldBeQueued {

    use InteractsWithQueue, SerializesModels;

    public function __construct()
    {

    }
}

with a handler class SendBirthdayEmailCommandHandler in /App/Handlers/ diretory

class SendBirthdayEmailCommandHandler {

public function __construct()
{
    //
}


public function handle(SendBirthdayEmailCommand $command)
{
    //
        $reminders = \App\Reminder::all()->where('reminder_status','=','scheduled')
                     ->where('reminder_set','=','birthday')
                     ->where('reminder_type','=','email')
                     ->where('reminder_time','<=',  \Carbon\Carbon::now('Asia/Kolkata'));

       foreach ($reminders as $reminder) {
           $this->sendEmailNow($reminder);
       }
}

public function sendEmailNow($reminder_record)
{
    $reminderdata = $reminder_record;
    $from = $reminderdata->reminder_from;
    $to = $reminderdata->reminder_to;
    $msgstring = $reminderdata->reminder_msg;

   \Illuminate\Support\Facades\Mail::queueOn(
                'birthday_email', 
                ['html' => 'emails.bdaymailhtml'], 
                $msgstring, 
                function($message){
                  $message->from('reminder@example.com', 'Reeminder');
                  $message->to($to,'')->subject('Happy Birthday to You!');
                }

   );
 }
}

How to Dispatch this Command Every 1 Hour from the schedular

Laravel doc only shows example of scheduling console commands, not Commands under App/Commands diretory

Edit 1

To be more specific, I would like to dispatch the SendBirthdayEmailCommand from the Schedular
Is that a correct approach? Or do i have to create a console command explicitly and then make a call to my command in App/Commands

P.S. The two command references are confusing. commands in /App/Console/Commands are the artisan console commands then what we call the commands in /App/Commands directory with their handler classes in /App/Handlers Directory

Edit 2

As suggested by @luceos here https://stackoverflow.com/a/31043897/1679510

I have used closure as below to dispatch the SendBirthdayEmailCommand from /app/Console/Kernel.php

protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule)
{
    $schedule->command('inspire')
             ->hourly();
           $schedule->call(function()
            {
                $this->dispatch(new App\Commands\SendBirthdayEmailCommand());

            })->hourly();
}

And to avail the dispatch() method in Kernel I have also did following

1. Availing Command Bus Facade to Kernel

   use Illuminate\Foundation\Bus\DispatchesCommands;
   

2. Using the Facade inside Kernel class

   class Kernel extends ConsoleKernel {
   
   use DispatchesCommands;
   /* rest of the code */
   }
   

   Let's see if that works!! Figuring out how to run cron on xampp to let the schedular run.

Also unsure, where would i get the debug log if there comes any error

Update:

After a bit playing with the Kernel and then running php artisan Have found that only console commands can be registered in kernel

For Example

class Kernel extends ConsoleKernel {

protected $commands = [
    'App\Console\Commands\Inspire',
    '\App\Commands\SendBirthdayEmailCommand', /* This will give error */
];
}

The Commands under app/Commands/ directory cannot be registered in kernel, as it only accepts instance of console commands

So that said, If we would like to call app/commands/MyCommand command in schedule method with something like $schedule->command('mycmd') Do we have to create an explicit console command?

You would edit the app/Console/Kernel.php class and add your command under schedule() method using:

$schedule->command('birthday-email')->everyHour();

Assuming you named your App\Commands\SendBirthdayEmailCommand birthday-email using property $name.

As you have two classes I think you mixed things up. You would need to move the handle() method of SendBirthdayEmailCommandHandler to the SendBirthdayEmailCommand or call the method from within the command.

If you want to call arbitrary things you can also simply use the call method:

schedule->call(function()
{
    // Do some task...

})->hourly();
