• One row per project, one column per service: state, uptime, PID, memory (a Horizon master is summed with its supervisors and workers) and restart history.
• Project totals: finished and failed jobs, jobs per minute over the last five minutes, the latest job and the latest error, parsed from the output of queue workers and schedule:work.
• Self-healing: a crashed service is restarted after 1, 2, 4 … seconds.
• Isolated environments: every service starts with env -i, so the variables loaded from the dashboard application's .env never leak into a sibling project.
• Plain output without a TTY: piped or in CI, lines are printed as [project|service] line.

Requirements

• PHP 8.2+ with pcntl and posix
• Laravel 12 or 13
• macOS or Linux (stty and ps are used)

Installation

composer require --dev aenzenith/laravel-dev-mesh
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=dev-mesh-config

Configuration

config/dev-mesh.php:

return [
    'command' => env('DEV_MESH_COMMAND', 'dev'),

    'title' => null, // defaults to the application name

    // label => absolute path; empty runs the current application only
    'projects' => [
        'shop' => base_path(),
        'payments-api' => base_path('../payments-api'),
    ],

    // column => command, started in every project
    'services' => [
        'horizon' => ['php', 'artisan', 'horizon'],
        'schedule' => ['php', 'artisan', 'schedule:work'],
    ],

    // variables passed through `env -i`
    'environment' => [
        'keep' => ['HOME', 'PATH', 'USER', 'SHELL', 'TMPDIR', 'TERM', 'LANG'],
        'keep_prefixes' => ['HERD_', 'NVM_'],
    ],

    'max_restart_delay' => 30,
];

Keep the HERD_ prefix when you use Laravel Herd: its PHP reads the ini that holds the certificate authority for .test TLS from those variables.

Usage

php artisan dev

Press q or Ctrl+C to stop every service.
