I have 500 users. I have to run through them all and assign different things, send them an email...
For each user I am sending a email, handling some api items. This call is timing out after 30 seconds.
I am on Forge and so I have a redis working running. I am very unfamiliar with queue'ing jobs and stuff like that so forgive the noob.
My handle() function in the job is:
public function handle()
{
Log::info('hit the job');
// assign something
// hit an api and add something to the user
// send the user and email
// save user
}
I am calling this from a controller:
public function activateCohort(Request $request, $id)
{
// Get some stuff
foreach($users as $u){
// do something
ProcessActivation::dispatch($u);
}
// save some stuff
return redirect()->back()->with('message-success', 'message');
}
This all runs fine. But it only goes through about 50 users. In the future I need this to work for 1k, 2k, 5k users.
I am also not sure how to see how redis is doing.
I am at a loss for how to structure the call to work. Any help is greatly appreciated.
