Class "Illuminate\Foundation\Bus\PendingDispatch" not found

Good day👋! I acknowledge that this package does not officially state its support for Laravel Lumen, but I decided to give it a try. I am using laravel/lumen-framework v8.0 with laravel-actions v2.1 and I am encountering this error:

Observingly, Lumen does not have the Illuminate\Foundation\Bus\PendingDispatch class. Lumen's counterpart for that class is Laravel\Lumen\Bus\PendingDispatch.

My current workaround for this issue is using Lumen's dispatch helper like so: dispatch(TestAction::makeJob()). But I would like to have Lumen support for the elegant TestAction::dispatch() methods. Thank you!

Hi there 👋

Thanks for raising this issue, since I never use Lumen I'm never 100% sure of how well this package supports it.

I'm more than happy to accept a PR that fixes this. At the top of my head the changes — in the AsJob trait — should just be:

• Use a common interface for type-hinting instead of the Laravel version of PendingDispatch.
• Check if we're in a Lumen app and if so instantiate a Laravel\Lumen\Bus\PendingDispatch instead in the dispatch method.

Hi there 👋

I actually tried to implement this and it turned out to be a lot more tricky than expected. Mostly because there isn't a common interface of PendingDispatch that overlaps Laravel and Lumen.

Since this issue doesn't seem to have much traction, I'm going to close this for housekeeping but if anyone wants to improve Laravel Actions' compatibility with Lumen, I'm more than happy to accept a PR for this.

Thank you for your understanding. 🌷
