PHP
Laravel Vapor
How to make Inspector works on Laravel Vapor.
Laravel Vapor will run your applicaiton is AWS Lambda environment. AWS Lambda has different default settings than a normal LAMP server.
After data collection Inspector sends this data to the remote API using two natives PHP functions behind the scenes (proc_open, proc_close).
AWS Lambda has these two functions disabled by default.
In a normal server environment they can be enabled/disabled changing the php.ini settings, but Vapor currently doesn’t provide a way to overwrite this configuration during deployment, so you can’t enable proc_open, proc_close functions.
Below you will find the simple implementation of a custom Inspector Transport class to allow the package to work in AWS Lambda as well.
Set a custom transport
The package design allows developers to inject a custom transport implementation at runtime. In the boot method of your
ApplicationServiceProvider you can use the code below:1
$this->app->inspector->setTransport(function ($configuration) {
2
return new QueueTransport($configuration);
3
});
Copied!
The callback will receive an instance of the
Inspector\Configuration class, that contains the Ingestion Key, the URL of our remote API, and all other information needed to build the appropriate HTTP call.QueueTransport implementation
To keep the data sending process “asynchronously” the QueueTransport class should schedule a job to send monitoring data in background:
1
namespace App\Inspector\Transports;
2
3
4
use Exception;
5
use Inspector\Transports\AbstractApiTransport;
6
use Inspector\Transports\TransportInterface;
7
use App\Inspector\Jobs\SendInspectorChunkJob;
8
9
class QueueTransport extends AbstractApiTransport implements TransportInterface
10
{
11
/**
12
* @param string $data
13
* @throws Exception
14
*/
15
protected function sendChunk($data)
16
{
17
dispatch(new SendInspectorChunkJob($this->config, $data));
18
}
19
}
Copied!
SendInspectorChunkJob receives the data in its constructor to be sent when the job is scheduled for execution. Here is the implementation of the Job:
1
namespace App\Inspector\Jobs;
2
3
4
use Exception;
5
use Illuminate\Bus\Queueable;
6
use Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue;
7
use Inspector\Transports\AbstractApiTransport;
8
use Inspector\Transports\TransportInterface;
9
use Inspector\Configuration;
10
11
class SendInspectorChunkJob implements ShouldQueue
12
{
13
use Queueable;
14
15
/**
16
* Monitoring Data
17
*
18
* @var string
19
*/
20
protected $data;
21
22
/**
23
* Inspector configuration.
24
*
25
* @var Configuration
26
*/
27
protected $configuration;
28
29
/**
30
* SendInspectorChunkJob constructor.
31
*
32
* @param Configuration $configuration
33
* @param string $data
34
*/
35
public function __construct(Configuration $configuration, string $data)
36
{
37
$this->data = $data;
38
$this->configuration = $configuration;
39
}
40
41
/**
42
* Use the original CurlTransport.
43
*
44
* @param \Inspector\Configuration $configuration
45
* @throws \Inspector\Exceptions\InspectorException
46
*/
47
public function handle()
48
{
49
$transport = new \Inspector\Transports\CurlTransport($this->configuration);
50
51
$transport->sendChunk($this->data);
52
}
53
}

Avoid the infinite loop
The last thing to do is to inform Inspector to ignore the SendInspectorChunkJob from the monitored jobs, otherwise when the job is executed it will run a new transaction itself that generate another job and so on… the infine loop start.
Inspector provides a configuration property where you can specify the job classes that you want exclude from monitoring.
Publish the inspector config file if you haven’t already done, using the command below:
1
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Inspector\Laravel\InspectorServiceProvider"
Copied!
Now you should have the
inspector.php file in your config directory.Add the SendInspectorChunkJob class to the "ignore_jobs" array:
1
/*
2
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
3
| Job classes to ignore
4
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
5
|
6
| Add at this list the job classes that you don't want monitoring
7
| in your Inspector dashboard.

'ignore_jobs' => [

\App\Inspector\Jobs\SendInspectorChunkJob::class,

],
