LavoroEasy Background Task Scheduling for Node.js

Ever wanted to ... ​

1. Just specify the job with a type-safe payload:

import { Job } from '@lavoro/core'

export class Inspire extends Job {
  async handle(payload: { quote: string }): Promise<void> {
    logger.info(payload.quote)
  }
}

2. Start background job processing:

const queue = new Queue(queueConfig)
Job.setDefaultQueueServiceResolver(() => queue)

await queue.start()

3. And simply use it:

await Schedule.job(Inspire, {
  quote: 'Done is better than perfect',
}).every('five seconds')

... without running a separate worker process and manually coordinating job scheduling?

Lavoro makes this a breeze.

First, install the queue drivers:

npm install @lavoro/postgres

Then, follow a comprehensive guide to get started.
