#Bot schedule message

If you already using Laravel you might be familiar with the scheduling Task and artisan make commands

OpenOverlay uses the same command and structure to create a base schedule message.

#Write A Scheduled Bot Message

#Create the message

You can use our make command, that based on Laravel make command, to create a new schedule Class for your message. This make command will create a new class in the App\Bot\Scheduling namespace with Redbeed\OpenOverlay\Console\Scheduling\ChatBotScheduling as a parent.

sail artisan make:bot-schedule MadeWithSchedule

MadeWithSchedule can be replaced by your wanted Class name

#Enable message for scheduling

You need the new Message to your config/openoverlay.php config file to enable it.

return [
    'bot' => [
        'schedules' => [
            ...
            App\Bot\Scheduling\MadeWithSchedule::class,
        ]

#Enable Laravel Scheduling

Your bot scheduling system uses laravel scheduling service. To run the laravel service you need to create a crontab. (#Running The Scheduler)
