我需要在我的服务器上安装composer才能用laravel执行cron作业？

Question

Is my first project in laravel and I am trying to perform a cron job but for some reason this does not seem to work, initially I worked the project in local, then upload it to the server and never installed composer in the cPanel, this is the cause that Does not work ?, I leave the code I have used.

for the command

<?php 
namespace App\Console\Commands;
namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use App\Plan;
use App\Plan_negocio2;
use App\Plan_negocio;
use App\Pagina;
use DateTime;
use Illuminate\Console\Command;

//use Illuminate\Foundation\Inspiring;

class Resaltador extends Command {

    /**
     * The console command name.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $name = 'res:resaltado';

    /**
     * The console command description.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $description = 'Verificar Resaltador';

    /**
     * Execute the console command.
     *
     * @return mixed
     */
    public function handle()
    {
        $plan=Plan_negocio::all();
        //$fechaAct=$request->fecha;

        if ($plan) 
        {
            $arrNegocio=[];
            foreach ($plan as $key => $value)
             {  
                //$value->fechafin=strtotime("2017-04-07")-time();

            date_default_timezone_set('America/Caracas');   
            $date = new DateTime($value->fechafin);
            $dateHoy=new DateTime();
            //$dat=$dateHoy->getTimestamp();
            $dat=9999999999999999;
            $value->fechafin=$date->getTimestamp();
            //$now = new DateTime();

                //$gene= $date1->format('U') - $now->format('U');


                if ($dat>$value->fechafin) 
                {
                 $negoPlan=Pagina::find($value->negocio_id);
                 $negoPlan->resalta_id=1;
                 $res=$negoPlan->save();

                }

             }
        }

    }

}

code of the kernel.php

  <?php 
   namespace App\Console;

  use Illuminate\Console\Scheduling\Schedule;
  use Illuminate\Foundation\Console\Kernel as ConsoleKernel;

   class Kernel extends ConsoleKernel {
    /**
     * The Artisan commands provided by your application.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $commands = [

        //'App\Console\Commands\Inspire',
        \App\Console\Commands\Resaltador::class,
    ];

    /**
     * Define the application's command schedule.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Console\Scheduling\Schedule  $schedule
     * @return void
     */
    protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule)
    {
        /*$schedule->command('inspire')
                 ->hourly();*/

                 $schedule->command('res:resaltado')->everyMinute();
    }

}

route of the cron job

The path that I give to the cron job does not give me any errors, so I do not think this is giving errors

the path is this

/usr/bin/php -q home3/pixsony6/public_html/loupper.com/loupper/artisan schedule:run 1>> /dev/null 2>&1

Any suggestions would be good, thanks

No, you do not need Composer to run a cron job with Laravel.
If you're vendor folder is present with all dependancies then you can run commands.
Composer is for installing packages to the vendor folder.
For your specific problem, try using the php-cli instead of php
