A New Job-based Retry Delay Comes to Laravel 5.8.14

Laravel 5.8.14 is out with a job-based retry delay and a partial revert of the ability to register custom Doctrine DBAL types in the schema builder introduced in Laravel 5.8.13 (see A New Laravel Blade Error Directive comes to Laravel 5.8.13).

The job-based retry delay enables you to define a public $retryAfter property on a job class or define a retryAfter() method if the logic is more complicated:

// Using a property...
public $retryAfter = 10;
 
// Using a method...
public function retryAfter()
{
// ... logic
 
return now()->addSeconds($seconds);
}

The retryAfter method can return an integer or a DateTime instance.

You can see the full list of fixes below, and the whole diff between 5.8.13 and 5.8.14 on GitHub. The full release notes for Laravel 5.8 are available in the GitHub 5.8 changelog.
