New features

• Added W3C traceparent header support to the ZendHQ PHP extension.

  • When present in an incoming request, the traceparent header is forwarded to the ZendHQ daemon. It is also injected as a request header in outgoing HTTP requests for deferred Job Queue HTTP jobs created via the PHP API.

• Added the OpenTelemetry exporter module (zendhq_otel) to the ZendHQ daemon.

  • Exports data to an OpenTelemetry collector via OTLP over HTTP or gRPC. Enable by installing the zendhqd-otel package and configure by editing the etc/conf.d/00-zendhqd-otel.ini. file.
  • The following data is exported:
    • monitoring events (including the traceparent header when present) as log records,
    • monitoring event metrics
    • Job Queue metrics.

• Added the ZEND-RPC communication protocol between the ZendHQ PHP extension and the ZendHQ daemon.

  • The new protocol replaces the legacy ZeroMQ protocol while reusing the existing ZeroMQ socket for transport. It eliminates the need for a separate ZeroMQ PUB/SUB socket for configuration updates, and is designed to be resilient to future message changes without breaking backwards compatibility.
  • ZendHQ daemon 3.0 supports both ZEND-RPC and the legacy ZeroMQ protocol, allowing PHP nodes that have not yet been upgraded to continue communicating with the daemon. Support for the legacy ZeroMQ protocol will be removed in a future version.

• Added support for suspending and resuming individual jobs in Job Queue.

  • Individual jobs in Job Queue queues can now be suspended and resumed. Suspended jobs are not executed by the scheduler until they are resumed. This allows temporarily stopping the execution of a job.
  • Added jq.suspend_job and jq.activate_job JSON-RPC methods to suspend and resume individual jobs.

• Added support for running Job Queue jobs immediately.

  • Scheduled jobs in Job Queue queues can now be run immediately without affecting their scheduled run time. This allows running a job on demand without changing its schedule. The job is executed as soon as possible by the scheduler.
  • The queue must be active to run a job immediately. The job can be suspended to run it immediately and will remain suspended after the immediate run.
  • Added jq.run_now JSON-RPC method to run a job immediately.

Changes

• Added traceparent column to the Job Queue jobs table.

  • Stores the W3C traceparent header value when a job is submitted via the PHP API during a request that carries the header.

• Added flags column to the Job Queue tasks table.

  • Stores the reason why the job was executed and is currently used to indicate jobs that were manually executed immediately.

• Added traceparent column to the Monitoring requests table.

  • Stores the W3C traceparent header value when a monitoring event is recorded during a request that carries the header.

New features

• Added PHP 8.5 support to the ZendHQ PHP extension.
• ZendHQ now has a UUID identifying the installation.
  • The UUID is generated when the ZendHQ daemon is started for the first time and stored in the database. The UUID can be used to identify the ZendHQ installation in logs, monitoring, and other places.
  • The UUID can be retrieved using the session.system_uuid JsonRPC method.
• Added new Job Queue JsonRPC API methods:
  • jq.export_queue and jq.export_queues JsonRPC methods can be used to export Job Queue queue definitions and job definitions to a JSON document.
  • jq.import_queue and jq.import_queues JsonRPC methods can be used to import Job Queue queue definitions and job definitions from a JSON document.
  • jq.import_jobs JsonRPC method can be used to import Job Queue job definitions to an existing queue from a JSON document.
  • jq.suspend_queues and jq.activate_queues JsonRPC methods can be used to suspend or activate all the Job Queue queues at once.
  • jq.are_queues_suspended JsonRPC method can be used to check if all the Job Queue queues are suspended.
  • jq.test_cron JsonRPC method can be used to test a cron expression and get the next scheduled run times.
• Added new sub-commands to the zendhqctl jobqueue queue command:
  • zendhqctl jobqueue queue export sub-command can be used to export Job Queue queue definitions and job definitions to a JSON file.
  • zendhqctl jobqueue queue import sub-command can be used to import Job Queue queue definitions and job definitions from a JSON file.
  • zendhqctl jobqueue job import sub-command can be used to import Job Queue job definitions to an existing queue from a JSON file.
• Added new functions to the Job Queue PHP API:
  • ZendHQ\\JobQueue\\HTTPJob::getQueryStringArguments() function can be used to get the query string arguments of an HTTP job as an associative array.
• Added support for multiple Open ID Connect (OIDC) providers.
  • ZendHQ daemon now supports multiple OIDC providers that can be configured in the ZendHQ daemon's configuration file. OIDC provider configuration is now generic and can be configured to support any OIDC provider.
• Added zendhqinfo() PHP function to the ZendHQ PHP extension.
  • The zendhqinfo() function outputs information about the ZendHQ PHP extension, tries to ping the ZendHQ daemon and outputs the daemon connection status.
• Added zendhq.log_file_cli directive to the ZendHQ PHP extension's configuration file that can be used to set the log file path for PHP CLI SAPI.
• If the directive is not set, then the zendhq.log_file directive is used.

Changes

• Modified zendhqctl jobqueue queue suspend/activate sub-commands to support the --all-queues flag that can be used to suspend or activate all the Job Queue queues at once.
• Modified zendhqctl jobqueue job history sub-command to support --time-from, --time-to and --date flags that can be used to filter job history entries by completion time range.
• Modified the jq.get_job_history JsonRPC method to support time_from and time_tofilter parameters that can be used to filter job history entries by completion time range.
• Modified the oauth2.providers JsonRPC method to optionally return full provider information if the full parameter is set to true.
• Modified session.create, session.restore and session.id JsonRPC methods to return authenticated user information including the OIDC provider name if the user was authenticated using OIDC.
• Improved reporting daemon connection and zeromq API version mismatch errors.
  • Silenced daemon connection errors are now repeated in the ZendHQ PHP extension's log file when trying to do a Z-Ray request, Code Tracing request, or monitoring event reporting.
  • Mismatching zeromq API version errors in the daemon's log file now include the offending PHP node's name.

  • The OIDC provider must be configured in the ZendHQ daemon's configuration file before enabling the OIDC authentication and authorization.
  • Supported OIDC providers are:
    • microsoft: Microsoft Entra ID

• Added support for Job Queue retry delay algorithms.

  • The Job Queue now supports different retry delay algorithms that can be used to control how long the Job Queue will wait before retrying a failed job. The retry delay algorithm can be one of the following:

    • fixed-delay: a fixed delay in seconds (default)
    • linear-backoff: a linear backoff delay
    • exponential-backoff: an exponential backoff delay
    • exponential-jitter: an exponential backoff delay with jitter
    • decorrelated-jitter: a variant of exponential backoff with jitter (AWS strategy)

  • The default retry delay algorithm can be set in the ZendHQ daemon's configuration file using the zendhqd.jobqueue.job_retry_delay_algo directive.

  • The default maximum cap for the retry delay can be set using the zendhqd.jobqueue.job_retry_delay_cap directive.

• Added the cache_dir configuration directive to the ZendHQ daemon's configuration file that can be used to set the directory where the daemon will store its cache files. The default value is ${INSTALL_PREFIX}/var/cache.

• Added support for environment variables in the ZendHQ daemon's configuration file.

  Environment variables can be used in the configuration file by using the syntax = ${name}. The environment variable must be set before starting the ZendHQ daemon.

• Added --sort-status and --sort-time options to the zendhqctl jobqueue job command subcommands list and history. These can be used together with the --all-queuesoption to sort entries by status and time.

Bug fixes

• Fixed a bug that caused some recurring Job Queue jobs to be not re-loaded when ZendHQ daemon was restarted.
• Fixed a bug that for HTTP POST and PUT jobs the Content-Type HTTP header was always set to "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" when the raw request body was used.
