question : how number of queued jobs (messages) in ironmq queue using laravel ?

after days of searching found answer, there's no method/function in laravel 5.1 can give number of queued jobs in ironmq.

but against ironmq on-premise api reference give solution, it's rest/http api allow query different requests using javascript set/get want from/to queue (get queue, update queue, list queues ...) , from/to messages in every queue (get message id, messages, clear messages ...).

base url :

https://{host}/{api version}/projects/{project_id}/queues/{queue_name}/messages/webhook?oauth={token}

example, if want number of messages in queue, have get queue info , peek size result.

get /queues/{queue name} 

---

a practical example :

you can find first base link inside concerned queue in project under webhook url case (see picture bellow) :

js code :

//to queue info have url : /queues/{queue name} var url = "https://{host}/{api version}/projects/{project_id}/queues/{queue_name}?oauth={token}";  //using ajax $.get $.get( url , function( result ) {      alert( "queue size :" + result["queue"]["size"]); }); 

result :

{   "queue": {     "project_id": 123,     "name": "my_queue",     "size": 0,     "total_messages": 0,     "message_timeout": 60,     "message_expiration": 604800,     "type": "pull/unicast/multicast",     "push": {       "subscribers": [         {           "name": "subscriber_name",           "url": "http://mysterious-brook-1807.herokuapp.com/ironmq_push_1",           "headers": {             "content-type": "application/json"           }         }       ],       "retries": 3,       "retries_delay": 60,       "error_queue": "error_queue_name",       "rate_limit": 10     }   } }
