Peanar

A background job queue for Node.js based on RabbitMQ

Usage

Take a look at the examples folder. You can run them using ts-node like this:

npx ts-node examples/delayed.ts

Contributing

You will only need a running instance of RabbitMQ server and a fair amount of AMQP 0-9-1 knowledge to start hacking on Peanar.

TODO

Peanar has been running in production at rechat.com for over a year without any major problems so far. While the base featureset can satisfy a big chunk of real-world requirements, there's always room for more!

• Improve on documentation
• Add tests
• Add a persistence layer for jobs
• Support transactional job scheduling
• Support dynamic delayed scheduling
• Make it easier to customize the Job class for individual jobs
• Store error messages along with retry info on the message headers
• Instrumentation/metrics
• Add a monitoring/management UI!
