A queue using mongo as backend storage.

Project description

mongo-mq

Simple job queue using mongodb

Usage

A queue can be instantiated with a mongo collection and a consumer identifier. The consumer identifier helps distinguish multiple queue consumers that are taking jobs from the queue:

>> from pymongo import MongoClient
>> from mongomq import MongoQueue
>> queue = MongoQueue(
...   MongoClient().test.doctest_queu,
...   consumer_id="consumer-1",
...   timeout=300,
...   max_attempts=3,
...   ttl=18000)

You can set ttl in seconds, after this time the job will be delete from database (default 5 hours)

New jobs/items can be placed in the queue by passing a dictionary:

>> queue.put({"foobar": 1})

A job priority key and integer value can be specified in the dictionary which will cause the job to be processed before lower priority items:

>> queue.put({"foobar": 0}, priority=1})

An item can be fetched out by calling the next method on a queue. This returns a Job object:

>> job = queue.next()
>> job.payload
{"foobar": 1}
>> job.status
'started'
