PEQUE-GO

The simple & universal message/task/job queue

NOTE: Peque is currently still being worked on and not production ready!

Peque (pronounced [ˈpeke]) is the easiest way to get a message/task/job queue running.

You don't even have to host a dedicated program for you queue, Peque can start out using your existing PostgreSQL Database for storing and distributing messages, tasks and jobs.

With a unified API message format, PEQUE can be even used across multiple different programing languages.

Message Format

To keep everything human-readable, messages are transmitted as JSON objects by default, with support for msgpack and brotli compression in performance critical applications.

Current Roadmap

Work in progress

• go Client

To be determined

• node.js Client
• clients for other languages
• messagepkg support
• brotli compression support

Inspiration

I have been heavily inspired by machinery, celery and eventide. This projects goal is to create a unified solution that can be used across many different programing languages.
