[Bug]: Defaults not used when running queue:work

[Propaganistas]

What happened?

I've set defaults for the PdfBuilder in a service provider's boot() method as described in the docs.

When a PDF gets generated in a queued job:

• the defaults are applied when powering the queue using queue:listen
• the defaults are NOT applied when powering the queue using queue:work

How to reproduce the bug

1. Create a fresh Laravel application (I'm on 10.x).
2. Change queue connection to database and publish the jobs table
3. Set defaults in AppServiceProvider boot() (e.g. Pdf::default()->margin(0.4, 0.4, 0.4, 0.4, Unit::Inch)
4. Create a job that generates a PDF ( e.g. Pdf::view('welcome')->save('somewhere'))
5. Run queue:work
6. Enqueue the job using Tinker (or otherwise) and check result

Or temporarily add a dump statement in PdfBuilder's view() method to check the margins property and return early. You'll notice the margins are set when running queue:listen but remain null when running queue:work.

Is there some way to add a test for this?

Not sure. I think you could borrow ideas from framework tests?

Dear contributor,

because this issue seems to be inactive for quite some time now, I've automatically closed it. If you feel this issue deserves some attention from my human colleagues feel free to reopen it.

Time to reopen as still unsolved.

Hi, I'm facing the same problem when generating the PDF under queue. If generate directly (sync), no issues. All defaults defined in app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php boot().
