DESCRIPTION

Minion::Backend is an abstract base class for Minion backends, like Minion::Backend::Pg.

ATTRIBUTES

Minion::Backend implements the following attributes.

minion

my $minion = $backend->minion;
$backend   = $backend->minion(Minion->new);

Minion object this backend belongs to. Note that this attribute is weakened.

METHODS

Minion::Backend inherits all methods from Mojo::Base and implements the following new ones.

auto_retry_job

my $bool = $backend->auto_retry_job($job_id, $retries, $attempts);

Automatically "retry" job with "backoff" in Minion if there are attempts left, used to implement backends like Minion::Backend::Pg.

broadcast

my $bool = $backend->broadcast('some_command');
my $bool = $backend->broadcast('some_command', [@args]);
my $bool = $backend->broadcast('some_command', [@args], [$id1, $id2, $id3]);

Broadcast remote control command to one or more workers. Meant to be overloaded in a subclass.

dequeue

my $job_info = $backend->dequeue($worker_id, 0.5);
my $job_info = $backend->dequeue($worker_id, 0.5, {queues => ['important']});

Wait a given amount of time in seconds for a job, dequeue it and transition from inactive to active state, or return undef if queues were empty. Meant to be overloaded in a subclass.

These options are currently available:

id
id => '10023'

Dequeue a specific job.

queues
queues => ['important']

One or more queues to dequeue jobs from, defaults to default.

These fields are currently available:

args
args => ['foo', 'bar']

Job arguments.

id
id => '10023'

Job ID.

retries

enqueue

my $job_id = $backend->enqueue('foo');
my $job_id = $backend->enqueue(foo => [@args]);
my $job_id = $backend->enqueue(foo => [@args] => {priority => 1});

Enqueue a new job with inactive state. Meant to be overloaded in a subclass.

These options are currently available:

attempts

Number of times performing this job will be attempted, with a delay based on "backoff" in Minion after the first attempt, defaults to 1.

delay
delay => 10

Job is valid for this many seconds (from now) before it expires. Note that this option is EXPERIMENTAL and might change without warning!

lax
lax => 1

Existing jobs this job depends on may also have transitioned to the failed state to allow for it to be processed, defaults to false. Note that this option is EXPERIMENTAL and might change without warning!
