Laravel Waiting Request
The article discusses a common issue in Laravel applications where a background job is processing data while another request attempts to read that data. It introduces the Laravel package 'aihimel/laravel-waiting-request' that allows requests to wait until the background job is completed. This solution helps prevent users from receiving outdated or incorrect information during concurrent requests.
- ▪The 'aihimel/laravel-waiting-request' package allows one request to park until another job signals that the resource is ready to read.
- ▪The package uses Laravel's cache system and does not require additional infrastructure.
- ▪It provides a simple API with methods to block, wait, check, and resolve requests.
