# kue-scheduler
[](https://travis-ci.org/lykmapipo/kue-scheduler)
[](https://david-dm.org/lykmapipo/kue-scheduler)
[](https://badge.fury.io/js/kue-scheduler)
A job scheduler utility for [kue](https://github.com/Automattic/kue), backed by [redis](http://redis.io) and built for [node.js](http://nodejs.org) with support of schedules restore on system restart.
Scheduling API is heavily inspired and borrowed from [agenda](https://github.com/rschmukler/agenda) and others.
*Note!: expiry key notification are now enabled by default, if provided kue options has a permission to do so unless explicit disabled by passing `skipConfig` option when creating `kue` instance*
*Note!: kue-scheduler v0.6.0 is a refactored version of previous kue-scheduler to allow redis data structure and schedule queue best practice. API is the same but some of internal working may not work as previous ones*
## Requirements
- [NodeJS v13.14+](https://nodejs.org)
- [Redis v2.8+](https://redis.io/)
- [kue 0.10.5+](https://github.com/Automattic/kue)
- If `kue-scheduler` failed to enable keyspace notification(s) automatic, then you have to enable them using `redis-cli`
```sh
$ redis-cli config set notify-keyspace-events Ex
```
## Installation
```
$ npm install --save kue kue-scheduler
```
## Usage
### Schedule a non unique job to run every after specified time interval
Use this if you want to maintain different(multiple) job instances on every run
Example `schedule a job to run every two seconds from now`
```js
var kue = require('kue-scheduler');
var Queue = kue.createQueue();
//create a job instance
var job = Queue
.createJob('every', data)
.attempts(3)
.backoff(backoff)
.priority('normal');
//schedule it to run every 2 seconds
Queue.every('2 seconds', job);
//somewhere process your scheduled jobs
Queue.process('every', function(job, done) {
...
done();
});
```
### Schedule a unique job to run every after specified time interval
Use this if you want to maintain a single job instance on every run.
Example `schedule a job to run every two seconds from now`
```js
var kue = require('kue-scheduler');
var Queue = kue.createQueue();
//create a job instance
var job = Queue
.createJob('unique_every', data)
.attempts(3)
.backoff(backoff)
.priority('normal')
.unique('unique_every');
//schedule it to run every 2 seconds
Queue.every('2 seconds', job);
//somewhere process your scheduled jobs
Queue.process('unique_every', function(job, done) {
...
done();
});
```
### Schedule a unique job to run every after specified time interval, using cron and timezone
Example `schedule a job to run every 10 seconds from now`
see http://momentjs.com/timezone/ for timezones names.
```js
var kue = require('kue-scheduler');
var Queue = kue.createQueue();
//create a job instance
var job = Queue
.createJob('unique_every', { timezone: 'Europe/Amsterdam' })
.attempts(3)
.backoff(backoff)
.priority('normal')
.unique('unique_every');
//schedule it to run every 10 seconds
Queue.every('*/10 * * * * *', job);
//somewhere process your scheduled jobs
Queue.process('unique_every', function(job, done) {
...
done();
});
```
### Schedule a non unique job to run only once after specified interval elapsed
Use this if you want to maintain different(multiple) job instances on every run
Example `schedule a job to run only once two seconds from now`
```js
var kue = require('kue-scheduler');
var Queue = kue.createQueue();
//create a job instance
var job = Queue
.createJob('schedule', data)
.attempts(3)
.backoff(backoff)
.priority('normal');
//schedule it to run once 2 seconds from now
Queue.schedule('2 seconds from now', job);
//somewhere process your scheduled jobs
Queue.process('schedule', function(job, done) {
...
done();
});
```
### Schedule a unique job to run only once after specified interval elapsed
Use this if you want to maintain a single job instance on every run.
Example `schedule a job to run only once two seconds from now`
```js
var kue = require('kue-scheduler');
var Queue = kue.createQueue();
//create a job instance
var job = Queue
.createJob('unique_schedule', data)
.attempts(3)
.backoff(backoff)
.priority('normal')
.unique('unique_schedule');
//schedule it to run once 2 seconds from now
Queue.schedule('2 seconds from now', job);
//somewhere process your scheduled jobs
Queue.process('unique_schedule', function(job, done) {
...
done();
});
```
### Schedule a job to run now
```js
var kue = require('kue-scheduler');
var Queue = kue.createQueue();
//create a job instance
var job = Queue
.createJob('now', data)
.attempts(3)
.backoff(backoff)
.priority('normal');
//schedule it to run now
Queue.now(job);
//somewhere process your scheduled jobs
Queue.process('now', function(job, done) {
...
done();
});
```
## Options
`kue-scheduler` support all `kue` options with addition of the following
- `restore:boolen` - tells `kue-scheduler` to try to restore schedules in case of restarts or other causes. By default its not enable. When enable use `restore error` and `restore success` queue events to communicate with the scheduler.
Example
```js
var options = {
prefix: 'w',
skipConfig: false,
redis: {
port: 6379,
host: '127.0.0.1',
db: 2
},
restore: true
};
...
Queue = kue.createQueue(options);
```
- `worker:boolen` - tells `kue-scheduler` to listen and process job. Default to `true`. If set to `false` you need another `kue-scheduler` instance to process the scheduled jobs from other process
Example
```js
//create scheduler instance(process)
var scheduler = kue.createQueue({
restore:true,
worker:false
});
//in separate process create an instance that will process works
var worker = kue.createQueue({
restore:true,
worker:true
});
worker.process(...);
...
```
- `skipConfig:boolen` - tells `kue-scheduler` to skip enabling enabling key expiry notification.
Example
```js
//create scheduler instance(process) with skipConfig
var scheduler = kue.createQueue({
skipConfig:true
});
```
*Note! if you experience the following error: `ReplyError: ERR unknown command 'config'`, which will happen if you're using a redis instance with the config command disabled (AWS Elasticache for example) you must call createQueue with the `skipConfig` option and manually ensure that the `notify-keyspace-events` configuration key is set to `Ex`.*
## API
### `clear(done)`
Clear all `kue` and `kue-scheduler` redis data. Clean up if performed atomically with fail all or success all guarantee.
Example
```js
var kue = require('kue-scheduler');
var Queue = kue.createQueue();
//perform cleanup
Queue.clear(function(error,response){
...
});
```
### `enableExpiryNotifications()`
Enable `redis key expiry notifications`.
Example
```js
var kue = require('kue-scheduler');
var Queue = kue.createQueue();
//enable expiry key notifications
Queue.enableExpiryNotifications();
```
### `every(interval, job, [done])`
Runs a given `job instance` every after a given `interval`. If `unique key` is provided only single instance job will exists otherwise on every run new job instance will be used.
`interval` can either be a [human-interval](https://github.com/rschmukler/human-interval) `String` format or a [cron](https://github.com/ncb000gt/node-cron) `String` format.
```js
var kue = require('kue-scheduler');
var Queue = kue.createQueue();
//create a job instance
var job = Queue
.createJob('every', data)
.attempts(3)
.backoff(backoff)
.priority('normal');
//schedule it to run every 2 seconds
Queue.every('2 seconds', job);
//somewhere process your scheduled jobs
Queue.process('every', function(job, done) {
...
done();
});
```
### `schedule(when, job)`
Schedules a given `job instance` to run once at a given time. `when` can either be a `Date instance` or a [date.js](https://github.com/matthewmueller/date) `String` such as `tomorrow at 5pm`. If `unique key` is provided only single instance job will exists otherwise on every run new job istance will be used.
```js
var kue = require('kue-scheduler');
var Queue = kue.createQueue();
//create a job instance
var job = Queue
.createJob('schedule', data)
.attempts(3)
.backoff(backoff)
.priority('normal');
//schedule it to run once 2 seconds from now
Queue.schedule('2 seconds from now', job);
//somewhere process your scheduled jobs
Queue.process('schedule', function(job, done) {
...
done();
});
```
### `now(job)`
Schedules a given `job instance` to run once immediately.
```js
var kue = require('kue-scheduler');
var Queue = kue.createQueue();
//create a job instance
var job = Queue
.createJob('now', data)
.attempts(3)
.backoff(backoff)
.priority('normal');
//schedule it to run now
Queue.now(job);
//somewhere process your scheduled jobs
Queue.process('now', function(job, done) {
...
done();
});
```
### `remove([id|job|criteria], done)`
Remove either scheduled job with its expiry key and schedule data or non-scheduled job. A criteria may contain `jobExpiryKey`, `jobDataKey` or `unique identifier` of the job in case of `unique jobs`
#### Example: Remove `every` schedule job
```js
//using instance
Queue.remove(``, function(error, response) {
...
});
//using id
Queue.remove(``, function(error, response) {
...
});
//using criteria
Queue.remove({
unique: 'every_mail'
}, function(error, response) {
...
});
```
#### Example: Remove `scheduled or now` job
```js
//using instance
Queue.remove(``, function(error, response) {
...
});
//using id
Queue.remove(``, function(error, response) {
...
});
//using criteria
Queue.remove({
unique: 'every_mail'
}, function(error, response) {
...
});
```
### `restore(done)`
Enforce `kue-scheduler` to restore schedules in cases that may cause your application to miss redis key expiry events. You may enable `restore` using options but in some scenario you may invoke `restore` by yourself.
Example
```js
var kue = require('kue-scheduler');
var Queue = kue.createQueue();
//perform cleanup
Queue.restore(function(error, schedules){
...
});
```
## Events
Currently the only way to interact with `kue-scheduler` is through its events. `kue-scheduler` fires `schedule error`, `schedule success`, `already scheduled`,`lock error`, `unlock error`, `restore success`, `restore error` and `scheduler unknown job expiry key` events.
### `schedule error`
Use it to interact with `kue-scheduler` to get notified when an error occur.
```js
//listen on scheduler errors
Queue.on('schedule error', function(error) {
...
});
var job = Queue
.createJob('now', data)
.attempts(3)
.backoff(backoff)
.priority('normal');
Queue.now(job);
```
### `schedule success`
Use it to interact with `kue-scheduler` to obtained instance of current scheduled job.
*Note: Use this event to attach instance level job events*
```js
//listen on success scheduling
Queue.on('schedule success', function(job) {
...
});
var job = Queue
.createJob('now', data)
.attempts(3)
.backoff(backoff)
.priority('normal');
Queue.now(job);
```
### `already scheduled`
Use it to interact with `kue-scheduler` to be notified if the current instance of job is unique and already schedule to run.
*Note: Use this event to attach instance level job events*
```js
//listen on already scheduled jobs
Queue.on('already scheduled', function(job) {
...
});
var job = Queue
.createJob('now', data)
.attempts(3)
.backoff(backoff)
.priority('normal');
Queue.now(job);
```
### `lock error`
Use it to interact with `kue-scheduler` to get notified when a [lock](https://github.com/mike-marcacci/node-redlock) error occured.
```js
//listen on scheduler errors
Queue.on('lock error', function(error) {
...
});
var job = Queue
.createJob('now', data)
.attempts(3)
.backoff(backoff)
.priority('normal');
Queue.now(job);
```
### `unlock error`
Use it to interact with `kue-scheduler` to get notified when [unlock](https://github.com/mike-marcacci/node-redlock) error occured.
```js
//listen on scheduler errors
Queue.on('unlock error', function(error) {
...
});
var job = Queue
.createJob('now', data)
.attempts(3)
.backoff(backoff)
.priority('normal');
Queue.now(job);
```
### `scheduler unknown job expiry key`
Fired when `kue-scheduler` receive unknown key event from redis. Use it to be notified on unknown key(s) events.
```js
Queue
.on('scheduler unknown job expiry key', function(message) {
expect(Queue._isJobExpiryKey(message)).to.be.false;
});
```
### `restore success`
Fired when `kue-scheduler` successfully restore previous schedules.
```js
Queue
.on('restore success', function() {
...
});
```
### `restore error`
Fired when `kue-scheduler` failed to restore previous schedules.
```js
Queue
.on('restore error', function(error) {
...
});
```
