FastStream broker integration for Redis-backed distributed timer scheduling

faststream-redis-timers

faststream-redis-timers is a FastStream broker integration for Redis-backed distributed timer scheduling.

Schedule messages to be delivered to subscribers at a future point in time — reliably, with distributed locking so no timer fires twice.

from datetime import timedelta
from faststream import FastStream
from faststream_redis_timers import TimersBroker
from redis.asyncio import Redis

client = Redis.from_url("redis://localhost:6379")
broker = TimersBroker(client)
app = FastStream(broker)

@broker.subscriber("invoices")
async def handle_invoice(invoice_id: str) -> None:
    print(f"Invoice {invoice_id} is due!")

@app.after_startup
async def schedule() -> None:
    await broker.publish(
        "INV-001",
        topic="invoices",
        activate_in=timedelta(days=30),
    )

How it works

Timers are stored in Redis as two structures:

• A sorted set (timers_timeline) with the activation timestamp as score
• A hash (timers_payloads) with the serialized message body

A polling loop checks for due timers and delivers each one exactly once using a distributed Redis lock, making it safe to run multiple instances simultaneously.
