Console commands

`publishr/sweep`

The one command a site needs on cron.

php craft publishr/sweep
php craft publishr/sweep --digest=1

In order:

Advance published pieces. Anything live but not on the published stage, moved forward.
Schedule freshness reviews for anything published that has none.
Raise reminders — due soon, overdue, review due.
Send whatever is waiting.
Prune history and sent notifications past the retention window.

Catching up the published stage comes first on purpose: everything after it reads the stage column, and a piece that went live last night should not be chased for a deadline it has already met.

Every step is idempotent, and every reminder carries a day-scoped deduplication key — so running it every ten minutes and running it once a day are both correct. The difference is only how promptly a reminder arrives.

*/10 * * * *  cd /path/to/site && php craft publishr/sweep
0    8 * * *  cd /path/to/site && php craft publishr/sweep --digest=1

Give --digest=1 to the once-a-morning entry, not the frequent one.

No cron? Publishr queues the same sweep from Craft's garbage collection. It runs less often, but it runs.

`publishr/sweep/digest`

Sends the digest on its own, whatever the schedule says. Useful for checking it looks right before committing a cron entry.

`publishr/sweep/status`

What the desk looks like, changing nothing:

Publishr
  edition            Pro
  stages             5
  tracked items      412
  overdue            7
  unassigned         19
  reviews scheduled  388
  reviews due        23
  alarm clock        yes
  redpen             yes

The last two lines are worth a glance after any deploy — they say which integrations this environment actually has, which is not always the same as which the developer thinks it has.

`publishr/track`

Backfills editorial records for content that predates the plugin.

php craft publishr/track
php craft publishr/track --section=news
php craft publishr/track --dryRun=1
php craft publishr/track --limit=5000

Option
`--section`	one section handle
`--dryRun`	print what would happen and write nothing
`--limit`	most entries to touch in one run (default 1000)

Entries already live land on the published stage; everything else on the default stage. Dropping three years of published articles onto "Idea" would produce a board claiming the whole archive is unwritten.

Safe to run repeatedly — anything already tracked is skipped, so a large site can be brought on in several passes.
