You can schedule things to run daily/hourly in a lot of different structures.
You can schedule an artisan command, a Job class, an invokable class, a callback function, and even execute a shell script.
use App\Jobs\Heartbeat; $schedule->job(new Heartbeat)->everyFiveMinutes();
$schedule->exec('node /home/forge/script.js')->daily();
use App\Console\Commands\SendEmailsCommand; $schedule->command('emails:send Taylor --force')->daily(); $schedule->command(SendEmailsCommand::class, ['Taylor', '--force'])->daily();
protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule){ $schedule->call(function () { DB::table('recent_users')->delete(); })->daily();}
