dispatchIf & dispatchUnless a closure

[bayukartiko]

I have read the documentation about dispatchIf and dispatchUnless.

Are laravel has same behaviour for dispatching closures like:

  dispatchIf($condition, function () {
      // ...
  });
  dispatchUnless($condition, function () {
      // ...
  });

?

I think that's great feature if we also have that.

for temporary solution:

    $function = function () {
        // ...
    };
    $condition = true;
    
    if($condition){
        dispatch($function);
    }else{
        $function();
    }

dispatchIf on jobs does not execute the job if false. It does not dispatch the job. This code does something else then the one you mentioned.

With the newest laravel to simulate dispatchIf for closure it is better to do

when($condition, fn() => dispatch(fn() => /** your action **/ ));

unless($condition, fn() => dispatch(fn() => /** your action **/ ));
