Components

Migrate command

        'migrationTable' => 'yii_migrations',
        'connectionID' => 'db',
    ],

Queues

Queues allow you to defer the processing of a time consuming task, such as sending an e-mail, until a later time, thus drastically speeding up the web requests to your application.

'queue' => [
    'class' => '\CST\Yii\Illuminate\Queue\RedisQueue',
    'encryptionKey' => '<random-string-of-16bytes>',
    'config' => [
        'cluster' => false,
        'default' => [
            'host'     => '<HOST>',
            'port'     => 6379,
            'database' => 0,
        ],
    ]
],

'commandMap'=> [
    ...,
    'queue'=> [
        'class' => '\CST\Yii\Illuminate\Console\QueueCommand',
