Laravel tools, step by step

  1. 1

    Run artisan from the panel

    Clear caches, restart queue workers, run migrations or link storage. Each run shows its output.

  2. 2

    Migrate with a snapshot first

    Run migrations takes a snapshot before it touches the database, unless you untick it.

    Run migrationsphp artisan migrate --forceRun…
    Link storagephp artisan storage:linkRun
    Run migrations on plinthwick.studio
    Laravel tools

    Runs php artisan migrate --force in the application’s root. Pending migrations change the database straight away.

    iA deployment rollback does not undo migrations. Keep the snapshot ticked unless you have a recent one.

    Keep the queue working

    A queue container runs your workers: one on sizes S and M, two on L. Deploys restart them for you.

    Let the scheduler run

    schedule:run runs every minute as a built-in cron entry. Add your own tasks beside it.

    Crons
    Run as web in htdocs. Changes apply within a minute or two, no restart.

{  What you can set  }

Options and limits

Everything here is per site or per environment, from the panel, with every change in the activity log.

Stack
PHP-FPM, nginx, MariaDB, Redis, a queue container and the scheduler. PHP 8.3 to 8.5.
Fresh install
A new Laravel 13 app with its .env, database and queue set up. No admin login to store.
Queue workers
php artisan queue:work: one worker on S and M, two on L. Deploys restart them.
Scheduler
php artisan schedule:run every minute, with its own switch on Crons.
Tools
Clear caches, restart queue workers, run migrations and link storage. One runs at a time.
Database settings
The .env reads them from the site, so a MariaDB upgrade changes nothing there.
Sizes
S, M or L: up to 4, 8 or 16 GB of memory and 10, 30 or 60 GB of disk.

Questions about laravel tools

No. The site’s queue container runs php artisan queue:work and starts it again if it stops. Deployments restart the workers so they pick up new code, and you can restart them from the panel.

No. A deployment rollback puts the previous code back and leaves the database as it is. That is why Run migrations takes a snapshot first: restore it to undo a migration.

Yes. Create an empty Laravel site, then deploy from Git or upload over SFTP. A fresh install gives you a new Laravel 13 app with its .env, database and queue ready.
