sudo apt install redis

# redis in ubunut by default not working in systemd to auto start so we must tell it to do so

sudo nano /etc/redis/redis.conf

# Seach for the supervisor and change it to systemd

supervised systemd

# Check Redis status
sudo systemctl status redis.service

redis-cli ping

1- .env

BROADCAST_DRIVER=redis
QUEUE_CONNECTION=redis

2- laravel-echo-server.json

// laravel-echo-server init
{
	"authHost": "https://your-domain.com",
	"authEndpoint": "/broadcasting/auth",
	"clients": [
		{
			"appId": "bac3036615df07cf",

2.2 - Echo server runner.js

require('dotenv').config();

const env = process.env;

require('laravel-echo-server').run({
    authHost: env.APP_URL,
    devMode: env.APP_DEBUG,
    database: "redis",
    databaseConfig: {
        redis: {
            host: env.REDIS_HOST,
            port: env.REDIS_PORT,
        }
    }
});

3- pm2.config.js

module.exports = {
    apps: [
        {
            name: 'laravel-echo-server',
            script: 'laravel-echo-server',
            instances : 1,  // default 'laravel-echo-server' required 1 instance only to work
            exec_mode : 'fork',  // default
            interpreter: 'node', // default
            args: 'start',
            error_file: './storage/logs/pm2/pm2.error.log',
            out_file: './storage/logs/pm2/pm2.out.log',
            pid_file: './storage/logs/pm2/pm2.pid.log',
            cwd: "/home/CPANEL USER NAME/www",
        },
        {
            name: 'laravel-queue-worker',
            script: 'artisan',
            exec_mode: 'fork', // default
            interpreter: 'php',
            instances: 1,
            args: 'queue:work --queue=videos_conversions,notifications,default --tries=5 --sleep=1',
            error_file: './storage/logs/pm2/pm2.error.log',
            out_file: './storage/logs/pm2/pm2.out.log',
            pid_file: './storage/logs/pm2/pm2.pid.log',
            cwd: "/home/CPANEL USER NAME/www",
        },   
    ]
};

4- Install PM2 on server.sh

# You Must Be Root

sudo npm install -g pm2

# Register pm2 to startup
# Run without sudo it will generate a command just copy/past the generated command
pm2 startup


# unRegister pm2 to startup
# Run without sudo it will generate a command just copy/past the generated command
pm2 unstartup

5- allow firewall port.sh

# All Command are on CentOs7

# Allow port 6001 in firewall for using it in laravel echo server
sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=6001/tcp --permanent

# Reload Firewall 
sudo firewall-cmd --reload

# Check for port
sudo iptables-save | grep 6001

# -A IN_public_allow -p tcp -m tcp --dport 6001 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW,UNTRACKED -j ACCEPT

6- start pm2.sh

# Method 1: Start PM2 as normal user (not server user but host or cpanel normal user)

# Add your host or cpanel user to "wheel" group to use "su" command
# Centos 7
usermod -G wheel your_user_name

# Ubunut 20.04
usermod -G sudo your_user_name

# Remomber now your user can use "su" command but it will required "root" user passowrd keep in mind
# By allowing your user to use "su" now pm2 will work correctlly and yu don't need to use "su"  with it

# Go to your app root path and Start PM2 and Provide Path to pm2.config.js (autocomplete paths in terminal may not work)
pm2 start pm2.config.js

# Stop PM2 and Provide Path to pm2.config.js (autocomplete paths in terminal may not work)
pm2 stop pm2.config.js

# Restart PM2 and Provide Path to pm2.config.js (autocomplete paths in terminal may not work)
pm2 restart pm2.config.js

# Log All pm2 Apps
pm2 logs

# Log specific pm2 app
# sudo pm2 logs [app name]
pm2 logs laravel-echo-server
pm2 logs laravel-queue-worker

#---------------------------------------#---------------------------------------#---------------------------------------

# Method 2: Start PM2 as Root (server user not host or cpanel normal user) or it will not work

# Start PM2 and Provide Path to pm2.config.js (autocomplete paths in terminal may not work)
sudo pm2 start "/home/CPANEL USER NAME/www/pm2.config.js"

# Stop PM2 and Provide Path to pm2.config.js (autocomplete paths in terminal may not work)
sudo pm2 stop "/home/CPANEL USER NAME/www/pm2.config.js"

# Restart PM2 and Provide Path to pm2.config.js (autocomplete paths in terminal may not work)
sudo pm2 restart "/home/CPANEL USER NAME/www/pm2.config.js"

# Log All pm2 Apps
sudo pm2 logs

# Log specific pm2 app
# sudo pm2 logs [app name]
sudo pm2 logs laravel-echo-server
sudo pm2 logs laravel-queue-worker
