Dear all,

I just released my first package for FuelPHP 1.7. It is a queuing system created to run jobs asynchronously.

A small subset of it's features:

- Simple usage, easy to integrate in your project.

- Different queues in parallel that can be switched on and off.

- Executed any static function, with arguments.

- Set priorities for the job.

- Delayed execution.

- Detailed error messages.

- Status panel showing all the jobs.

Cool.

One question though, instructions say:

Make a new file in fuel/app/tasks with the name queue.php on your application with the follow code:

<?php
\Package::load('queue');
include_once PKGPATH . 'queue/tasks/queue.php';

Why is this code not the task itself? So you don't need this imho clumsy workaround?

StefanMajoor

You can just copy paste the source from the tasks/queue.php file. But that is more work.

Is it possible to run a task directly from a vendor?

Harro

It was a package, wasn't it? So there is no relation with the "vendor" folder.

StefanMajoor

When installing from composer, it installs in the vendor direcotry. Is that wrong?

Harro

No, but you referred to it previously as a package, hence my remarks. So it's not a package?

Harro

To be clear, with package I mean: http://fuelphp.com/docs/general/packages.html

StefanMajoor

Thank you for clarifying that. How should it be called then?

Harro

I don't know. ;)

We usually refer to composer packages as libraries (also in Fuel v2 which is composer driven), to avoid confusion between the two.

On Bitbucket, you give the instructions to create a task, and in that task, put this code:

<?php
\Package::load('queue');
include_once PKGPATH . 'queue/tasks/queue.php';

which indicates it is a Fuel package, otherwise you don't need this code?

But if you just install it through composer, it will be in the vendor folder, not in PKGPATH, and Package::load() will not work?

So for me it's very confusing what you are trying to do here...

StefanMajoor

If you state it like that, it is indeed weird. This bit was based on some legacy code.

I will have a look at it when I am back at my work again (This saturday)

StefanMajoor

Thank you all for the replies. I have checked it, and it was indeed an error in the readme file.

It is changed now! I'm sorry for the confusion
