How to get command parameters when the command is queued

[melvinotieno]

Given the following command

Artisan::queue('mail:send', [
    'user' => $user, '--queue' => 'default'
]);

I am listening to when the Queue ends through

Queue::after(function (JobProcessed $event) {
    $job = $event->job;
    $data = $job->payload()['data'];

    if ($job->resolveName() === 'mail:send') {
        $command = unserialize($data['command']);

        // how do i get the command parameters from here?
    }
}

How do I get the command parameters user and --queue passed to the Artisan command queue?

Mock a command locally with queue driver database and workers STOPPED and look in db to see the command key-value.

[melvinotieno]

I am not sure I got what you mean. Also, I am using redis as the queue driver

[marius-mcp]

Well use database locally. The payload is the same as it is for Redis.
Add a job/message to your local db queue. Then read from it to see the format.

[melvinotieno]

Ooh, I already know the format. It comes back as QueuedCommand. When I check the class, it does have the data but it is protected so I cannot get it

[marius-mcp]

You can use reflection to read protected properties from a class.

[melvinotieno]

Oh yeah, that didn't cross my mind. Thank you

You can use reflection to read protected properties from a class.

Or use closures for that. Less code required ...

[marius-mcp]

@henzeb You made me curious. How can it be done with closures?

[henzeb]

Using https://www.php.net/manual/en/closure.bind.php you can bind the closure to the object with a different context e.g. the parent class. you then have access to protected, and I believe even private, properties and methods.
