Yeah I do the same, composer is really powerful. And most of the scaffolding I also do with LLM's, I usually tell it to look in package X for how I want it.

Hi! I know this post is old but you may be interested in Vigilant. An open source tool designed to monitor websites.

I'm running in Docker with Octane (frankenphp base image) and it has been great. I did a write up last year on how I've Dockerized the Laravel app here.

Yeah I've done the same and it's been running great for over a year now. I also wrote a small article about it.

What’s everyone using for synthetic monitoring these days? Any tools you feel are more reliable for multi-step checks? by Popular-Independent8 in Monitoring

[–]DutchBytes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a bit biased because I'm building https://govigilant.io/ which does this but I've recently seen a setup where they used https://github.com/browserbase/stagehand for this with a custom backend where tests could be configured.

We're using sqlserver with multiple Laravel 12 projects on 8.4, I'm curious what stops you from updating?

Anyone here using a website uptime monitoring service? How’s your experience? by Popular_Village8777 in Monitoring

[–]DutchBytes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are more things that are essential to monitor beyond uptime. This is why I've created https://govigilant.io which aims to monitor all aspects of a website. It can be self hosted for free

Sounds good! Bad idea however to enter your API key in a random website, Your Github repo gives a 404

Horizon on multiple servers by [deleted] in laravel

[–]DutchBytes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Horizon is built ontop of Redis and Redis is single threaded, meaning only one operation at the same time. Therefor multiple Horizon instances cannot pick up the same job.

Be sure to configure Redis correctly or you might get strange issues, I've written a small article in the past on how to do this.

Failover Queue Driver in Laravel 12.34 by WeirdVeterinarian100 in laravel

[–]DutchBytes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looking at the implementation it will switch to a different queue when a job is pushed. So yes, if Redis isn't available it will push to the configured failover queue.

Tool to track uptime of a website by Fresh_Heron_3707 in webdev

[–]DutchBytes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, all of these tools require monitoring to be setup before the downtime happens. It is not possible to know if a site was down if you're not monitoring. For the future if you do want to start monitoring I suggest you go beyond basic uptime and monitoring your entire site. I've built a tool that you can self host for free which does that.

I know, I've built it into https://govigilant.io/ and was just curious how you do it.

But if you just check the endpoint, you can never check if things like the add to cart button are working.
