Gue is Golang queue on top of PostgreSQL that uses transaction-level locks.
Originally this project used to be a fork of bgentry/que-go but because of some backward-compatibility breaking changes and original library author not being very responsive for PRs I turned fork into standalone project. Version 2 breaks internal backward-compatibility with the original project - DB table and all the internal logic (queries, algorithms) is completely rewritten.
The name Gue is yet another silly word transformation: Queue -> Que, Go + Que -> Gue.
go get -u github.com/vgarvardt/gue/v2
Additionally, you need to apply DB migration.

Package supports several PostgreSQL drivers using adapter interface internally. Currently, adapters for the following drivers have been implemented:

func main() {
pgxCfg, err := pgxpool.ParseConfig(os.Getenv("DATABASE_URL"))
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
pgxPool, err := pgxpool.ConnectConfig(context.Background(), pgxCfg)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
defer pgxPool.Close()
poolAdapter := pgxv4.NewConnPool(pgxPool)
gc := gue.NewClient(poolAdapter)

Package supports several logging libraries using adapter interface internally. Currently, adapters for the following drivers have been implemented:
- NoOp (
adapter.NoOpLogger
) - default adapter that does nothing, so it is basically/dev/null
logger - Stdlib
log
- adapter that useslog
logger for logs output. Instantiate it withadapter.NewStdLogger(...)
. - Uber
zap
- adapter that usesgo.uber.org/zap
logger for logs output. Instantiate it withadapter.zap.New(...)
.
Linter and tests are running for every Pull Request, but it is possible to run linter
and tests locally using docker
and make
.
Run linter: make link
. This command runs liner in docker container with the project
source code mounted.
Run tests: make test
. This command runs project dependencies in docker containers
if they are not started yet and runs go tests with coverage.
