nfprq stands for no-frills python redis queue

Scope is creating a very simple queueing framework, that just needs redis and nothing more.

This README just describes how nfprq will be used later and a list of features and non-features

Usage

A simple producer should look like this:

queue = Nfprq("queuename", redis_instance)

message = '{"foo": "bar"}'  # this is a string

queue.enqueue(message)

A consumer should look like this

queue = Nfprq("queuename", redis_instance)

while True:
    message = queue.consume()
    # do stuff

That's it!

Features

• enqueue
• consume

Maybe feature

• message ack & requeue

Non features

Stuff that is not going to be implemented

• automatic dead lettering
• routing, topics and the like
• fancy decorators
• command line runners and the like (use supervisor or similar to run consumers)
