Help - Integration With Laravel Job

[ivan-grozni]

I'm looking to integrate this with a laravel install that requires a login, but any time I try to take a snapshot of a laravel-generated URL, the image won't save out (but the job does save out). For example, I have a dispatched event handling the request:

public function handle(){   
        $fileName = $this->component->entity_id."_".date("Y-m-d").'.jpg';

        //take screenshot
        $fileLocation = storage_path()."/app/tmp/".$fileName;
        $screenCapture = new Capture(route("admin.components.preview", $this->component->id));
        //$screenCapture = new Capture("http://google.com"); // this works!

        $screenCapture->jobs->setLocation(storage_path().'/app/weber-screens/');
        $screenCapture->setTimeout(5000);
        $screenCapture->setWidth(1400);

        if($screenCapture->save($fileLocation)){ //returns false unless using Google's URL
            
            //upload screenshot to s3
            $s3 = \Storage::disk('s3');
            $dir = "/screens/";
            $filePath = $dir. $fileName;
            $thumbPath = $dir."/thumbs" . $fileName;
            $s3->put($filePath, file_get_contents($screenCapture->getImageLocation()), 'public');
    
            //delete temp file
            unlink ( $fileLocation );
    
            return true;
        }
    }

Using the laravel route, I don't get any file saved out (screenCapture->save() returns false). But if I go to the job saved out, copy the command, and run it manually in the CLI it saves out correctly.

Hi, seems your route cannot be opened from cli

you must give a valid address which is reachable over internet

your "route" maybe is producing unreachable URL when you run it from the command line

the capture script spawns a new process and it does not know about laravel

try to see what your route outputs to other CLI programs

for example try

exec("curl ".route("admin.components.preview", $this->component->id))." ")

and see if there is any output

Thanks for replying.

The generated job JS file has the command you are referring to, right? Because when I copy and paste that into the CLI, it works fine.

hi, another guess maybe check if the files in the bin folder are executable

maybe make chmod +x on the files in the bin folder and try again

You must set the url of your application in order to use the route in laravel jobs.

Find the setting in app config and replace the appropriate url
