How to get the queued job from job ID in Laravel?

Question

Is there any way to get the queued job from the job ID in Laravel? While adding the job to the queue, I store the job ID. Later at some point of time (there is a delay to process the job in the queue), I want to remove the job from the queue. If I can get the job on the queue using the job ID, I can use delete() method to remove it.

Answer 1

I use this code for laravel 5.5 :

use Illuminate\Contracts\Bus\Dispatcher;

$job = ( new JOB_CLASS() )->onQueue('QUEUE_NAME')->delay('DELAY');
$id  = app(Dispatcher::class)->dispatch($job);

It is a queue so you can not select it, but if you are logging the data also outside the queue you could look in the Queue::before(){} added to AppServiceProvider.php to check the stored id or reference to the jobs as they come off the queue and before processed.

I am also working on this area so if I figure out the code for this, and will post it if I do. As you are getting an event back here in the before() so you have to unwrap it and get the Job out to examine.

You can simply use DB::table() for searching the particular job by it id, as while dispatching the job it returns the job table's id.

use DB;
class ServiceClass{
    public function deleteJobIfExists($id){
        $jobTable = 'jobs';
        $job = DB::table($jobTable)->find($id);
        return $job ? ($job->delete ? 1 : -1 ) : 0;
}
}
