Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Redis-based distributed queue for Node.js with group support

Readme

GroupQ

GroupQ is a Redis-based distributed queue system for Node.js, forked from BullMQ. This fork adds group support functionality while maintaining full compatibility with BullMQ.

Features

  • ✅ All BullMQ features (priorities, delayed jobs, repeatable jobs, rate limiting, etc.)
  • Group support - Enhanced grouping capabilities for job management
  • ✅ Parent/Child job dependencies
  • ✅ Atomic operations
  • ✅ Fully compatible with BullMQ API

Installation

npm install groupq

or

yarn add groupq

Quick Start

Add jobs to the queue

import { Queue } from 'groupq';

const queue = new Queue('Paint');

queue.add('cars', { color: 'blue' });

Process jobs with workers

import { Worker } from 'groupq';

const worker = new Worker('Paint', async job => {
  if (job.name === 'cars') {
    await paintCar(job.data.color);
  }
});

Listen to job events

import { QueueEvents } from 'groupq';

const queueEvents = new QueueEvents('Paint');

queueEvents.on('completed', ({ jobId }) => {
  console.log('Job completed:', jobId);
});

queueEvents.on('failed', ({ jobId, failedReason }) => {
  console.error('Job failed:', jobId, failedReason);
});

Parent-child job relationships

import { FlowProducer } from 'groupq';

const flow = new FlowProducer();

await flow.add({
  name: 'root-job',
  queueName: 'topQueueName',
  data: {},
  children: [
    {
      name: 'child-job',
      data: { idx: 0, foo: 'bar' },
      queueName: 'childrenQueueName',
    },
  ],
});
