jobQ
Async and parallel execution of jobs, tasks and processes. This library is aimed to solve the problem of having to limit how many parallel tasks you want to perform. It accepts several kinds of sources including Arrays, Promises, Functions, etc.
Installation
npm install --save jobq
Usage
var jobQ = require('jobq')
var queue = new jobQ({
process: function(x, callback){
setTimeout(function() {
callback(null, x)
}, 3000)
},
source: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10],
maxProceses: 2
})
queue.start()
Options
- source: required View source section.
- process: required View process section.
- maxProceses:
<Number>
indicates how many jobs will run in parallel. A value of0
means 'no limit'. Default1
- debug:
<Boolean>
enables or disables debug. Defaultfalse
- stopOnError:
<Boolean>
indicates if jobs will stop after first error or continue. If enabled,processFinish
will be called with statuserror
if an error occurs. Defaultfalse
- pooling:
<Number>
pooling timeout in milliseconds. When enabled, JobQ will continue to try and fetch data from the source (Function
only). Default: No pooling
Events
var queue = new jobQ({
process: myProcess,
source: mySource,
maxProceses: 2
})
queue.on('start', function(){})
queue.on('jobFetch', function(){})
queue.on('jobRun', function(){})
queue.on('jobFinish', function(){})
queue.on('processFinish', function(){})
queue.on('pooling', function(){})
queue.on('pause', function(){})
queue.on('resume', function(){})
queue.on('error', function(){})
queue.start()
start
Emited once after calling start()
with an object containing:
- startTime:
<Date>
date when start was called - processed:
<Number>
jobs processed so far - errors:
<Number>
jobs errored so far - maxProceses:
<Number>
maxProceses passed to constructor. Default1
- stopOnError:
<Boolean>
stopOnError passed to constructor. Defaultfalse
- sourceType:
<String>
Detected source type (array
,function
,promise
orstream
). - status:
<String>
queue status. will always be running at this point.
jobFetch
Emited once for each job before fetching it from the queue with an object containing:
- jobsRunning:
<Number>
current amount of processing jobs. It will not count the one that triggered the event.
jobRun
Emited once for each job when it starts running with:
<number>
job id (autoincrement)
jobFinish
Emited once after calling start()
with an object containing:
- jobId:
<Number>
job id - jobStartTime:
<Date>
date when job started to process - jobEndTime:
<Date>
date when job finishes to process - result:
<any>
job result received - jobsRunning:
<Number>
current amount of processing jobs. It will count the one that triggered the event.
processFinish
Emited once after calling start()
with an object containing:
- startTime:
<Date>
date when start was called - endTime:
<Date>
date when queue was fully processed - processed:
<Number>
total amount of jobs processed - errors:
<Number>
total amount of errors - maxProceses:
<Number>
maxProceses passed to constructor. Default1
- stopOnError:
<Boolean>
stopOnError passed to constructor. Defaultfalse
- sourceType:
<String>
Detected source type (array
,function
,promise
orstream
). - status:
<String>
queue status. will always befinished
orerror
.
pooling
Emited every time the source function returns null
as value and JobQ starts waiting to check again. Only emited if pooling
is enabled, with an object containing:
- startTime:
<Date>
date when start was called - processed:
<Number>
jobs processed so far - errors:
<Number>
jobs errored so far - maxProceses:
<Number>
maxProceses passed to constructor. Default1
- stopOnError:
<Boolean>
stopOnError passed to constructor. Defaultfalse
- sourceType:
<String>
Detected source type (array
,function
,promise
orstream
). - status:
<String>
queue status. will always be pooling at this point.
pause
Emited once after calling pause()
with an object containing:
- startTime:
<Date>
date when start was called - processed:
<Number>
jobs processed so far - errors:
<Number>
jobs errored so far - maxProceses:
<Number>
maxProceses passed to constructor. Default1
- stopOnError:
<Boolean>
stopOnError passed to constructor. Defaultfalse
- sourceType:
<String>
Detected source type (array
,function
,promise
orstream
). - status:
<String>
queue status. will always be paused at this point.
resume
Emited once after calling resume()
with an object containing:
- startTime:
<Date>
date when start was called - processed:
<Number>
jobs processed so far - errors:
<Number>
jobs errored so far - maxProceses:
<Number>
maxProceses passed to constructor. Default1
- stopOnError:
<Boolean>
stopOnError passed to constructor. Defaultfalse
- sourceType:
<String>
Detected source type (array
,function
,promise
orstream
). - status:
<String>
queue status. will always be running at this point.
error
Emited once for each job error:
<Error>
error received
Source
Source is where data will be fetched in order to be processed. It can be one of the following:
<Array>
like[1, 2, 3]
.<Array>
of promise like[promise1, promise2, promise3]
.<Function>
returning a value.<Function>
returning a promise.<Function(callback)>
returning nothing and passing data tocallback
with error as the first parameter and response as the second one.<ReadableStream>
that supportson('readable')
andread()
.<Promise>
that resolves to any of the previous source types.
IMPORTANT: When using Function
and Promise
sources, you must pass null
as value to stop execution.
Process
Process function receives a value from the queue and be anby of the following:
<Function>
that returns a value<Function>
that returns a Promise wich resolves to a value<Function(callback)>
that returns nothing and executes acallback
with error as the first parameter and response as the second one.
