Why
It can happen that our application restarts or crashes while jobs are in progress with workerpool. This library allows for persistence so that these jobs are not lost and can be resumed.
Install
Install via yarn
yarn add workerpool-redis
Configure Redis
Add the Redis environment variable.
If you have a password on your Redis:
// .env
REDIS_URL=redis://:password@localhost:6379
If you don't have a password on your Redis:
// .env
REDIS_URL=redis://localhost:6379
Configure your queues
Create a queue named "testing".
import { Queue } from "workerpool-redis";
const testingQueue = new Queue("testing", (foo, arg2) => {
// your code goes here
console.log(foo); // will output "bar"
return "ghostlexly";
});
Add a job to your queue
Add a job
testingQueue.add(["bar", "EDF-ARGUMENT2"]);
onComplete
Trigger a function when the job is complete
import { Queue } from "workerpool-redis";
const onComplete = (result) => {
// do something with the results..
console.log(result); // will output "ghostlexly"
};
const testingQueue = new Queue(
"testing",
() => {
// your code goes here
return "ghostlexly";
},
{
retryInMinutes: 1, // retry this job in 1 minute if the job is still not completed
onComplete: onComplete,
}
);
