Running the provider only when the program starts in Adonis 5

[dev-zarghami]

I create a provider to connect with nats, which connects to nats every time my program runs

I defined a command that changes a value in the database using model

But I don't want my provider to be run when I execute the command

export default class UploadToStorage extends BaseCommand {
  /**
   * Command name is used to run the command
   */
  public static commandName = 'users:status:change'

  /**
   * Command description is displayed in the "help" output
   */
  public static description = 'upload all temp files to storage'

  public static settings = {
    /**
     * Set the following value to true, if you want to load the application
     * before running the command. Don't forget to call `node ace generate:manifest`
     * afterwards.
     */
    loadApp: true,

    /**
     * Set the following value to true, if you want this command to keep running until
     * you manually decide to exit the process. Don't forget to call
     * `node ace generate:manifest` afterwards.
     */
    stayAlive: false,
  }

  /**
   * Schedules AWS Rekognition requests for processing at a specified time.
   * Uses the AWS SDK to prepare and send the requests.
   */
  public async run() {
    // do somthings
  }
}

export default class NatsProvider {
  constructor(protected app: Application) {
  }

  public register() {
    this.app.container.bind('Adonis/Addons/NatsBroker', () => {
      const {validator} = this.app.container.use('Adonis/Core/Validator')
      const Logger = this.app.container.use('Adonis/Core/Logger')
      const Broker = new BrokerInit(this.app, validator, Logger)
      Broker.createConnection().then(() => {
        Broker.initRoutes()
      })
      return Broker
    })
  }

  public async boot() {
  }

  /**
   * When application is ready attach natsBroker to adonis http server
   */
  public async ready() {
    // App is ready
  }

  /**
   * When application is shutting down close all active nats connections
   */
  public async shutdown() {
    // Cleanup, since app is going down
  }
}

Hey @devzarghami!

I am not sure what you are trying to achieve. Can you be more specific?

When I run one of the commands I created, I don't want the provider to run

Hello @devzarghami
When you instanciate your provider in the boot method, the provider would run if you start a node ace command (ex: node ace migration:fresh). If you don't want to start your provider at this moment, start it when your app is ready (ready method).
