Pre-release

This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.

awa-cli

Command-line interface for the Awa Postgres-native job queue. Run migrations, inspect and manage jobs, walk the storage transition, drive the Dead Letter Queue, list cron schedules, and serve the web admin UI.

Install

The CLI is shipped as both a Rust binary and a Python wheel. Either distribution gives you the same awa executable, including the embedded React admin dashboard for awa serve.

# Python (no Rust toolchain needed)
pip install awa-cli

# Rust
cargo install awa-cli

If you're already using the awa-pg Python SDK, install both with one command:

pip install 'awa-pg[ui]'

That pulls in awa-cli as a dependency so python -m awa serve works end-to-end alongside the worker SDK.

Quick start

# Run migrations
awa --database-url $DATABASE_URL migrate

# Inspect
awa --database-url $DATABASE_URL queue stats
awa --database-url $DATABASE_URL job list --state failed
awa --database-url $DATABASE_URL job dump 12345
awa --database-url $DATABASE_URL job dump-run 12345

# Admin
awa --database-url $DATABASE_URL job retry 12345
awa --database-url $DATABASE_URL queue pause email
awa --database-url $DATABASE_URL queue drain email

# Web UI
awa --database-url $DATABASE_URL serve
# → http://127.0.0.1:3000

DATABASE_URL may be passed as the --database-url flag or read from the environment.

Commands

Command Description
migrate Apply migrations, or extract / print SQL with --sql / --extract-to
job list List jobs with --state / --kind / --queue filters
job dump <id> Pretty-print one job and its full lifecycle metadata
job dump-run <id> [--attempt N] Pretty-print one attempt run
job retry <id> Retry a failed or cancelled job
job cancel <id> Cancel a job
job retry-failed (--kind K | --queue Q) Retry every failed job matching exactly one filter
job discard --kind K Delete every failed job of a given kind
queue stats Per-queue depth, lag, and throughput
queue pause / resume / drain <queue> Queue admin
cron list / remove List or remove cron schedules
dlq depth [--queue Q] Total DLQ rows, optionally split by queue
dlq list List DLQ entries with --kind / --queue / --tag / --before-* filters
dlq retry <id> Retry a single DLQ row
dlq retry-bulk Retry every DLQ row matching the filter (--all required if no filter is given)
dlq move Move existing failed terminal rows into the DLQ
dlq purge Delete DLQ rows matching the filter (--all required if no filter is given)
storage status Current storage-transition state
storage prepare --engine E Prepare a future storage engine without changing routing
storage prepare-queue-storage-schema Materialize the queue-storage schema (tables, indexes, functions)
storage enter-mixed-transition Begin routing new writes to the prepared engine
storage finalize Finalize the transition once drain and capability gates pass
storage abort Abort a prepared or mixed-transition rollout
serve Start the embedded web admin UI

Run awa <command> --help for the flags on any subcommand.

Storage transition

For an existing 0.5.x cluster moving to the queue-storage engine, the typical sequence is:

awa --database-url $DATABASE_URL storage prepare-queue-storage-schema
awa --database-url $DATABASE_URL storage prepare --engine queue_storage
# ... roll out a binary that supports queue storage to all workers ...
awa --database-url $DATABASE_URL storage enter-mixed-transition
# ... drain the canonical engine ...
awa --database-url $DATABASE_URL storage finalize

See docs/upgrade-0.5-to-0.6.md for the full pre-flight checklist, gate semantics, and rollback notes. Fresh installs auto-finalize on first migrate and do not need this sequence.

Dead Letter Queue

dlq retry-bulk and dlq purge require an explicit filter (--kind, --queue, or --tag) or --all. This is intentional — a bare bulk retry / purge with no filter would touch every DLQ row, which is almost never what you want. See docs/dead-letter-queue.md.

Web UI

awa serve starts an embedded admin UI (awa-ui) bound to 127.0.0.1:3000 by default. The UI is read-only when the database reports transaction_read_only = on (e.g. on a replica) or when --read-only is passed explicitly. Mutation endpoints return 503 in that mode.
