Common Tasks

This page captures common tasks and where they live in the Flowra scaffold.

Add a new module​

flowra make:module inventory

Update app/Modules/modules.manifest.js if you want to disable or reorder modules.

Enable or disable a module​

flowra module:disable inventory
flowra module:enable inventory

Add a global middleware​

Edit app/Bootstrap/server.bootstrap.js and add middleware before routes are registered:

app.use(myMiddleware());
const routes = new HttpRouter(container).defineRoutes();
app.use(routes);

Add a provider​

Create a provider in app/Providers/ and register it in app/Config/App.js:

providers: ['Providers/AppServiceProvider']

Use cache or Redis​

Resolve the cache manager from the container:

const cache = container.resolve('cacheManager');
const redis = await cache.client('redis');

Add a background queue​

Flowra supports BullMQ when installed. Configure it under queue in app/Config and resolve it via queueFactory.

Refresh .env.example​

flowra env:example
Keep tasks repeatable
