Checks if Internet COnnectivity is Present to push Email Out.
Uses Bull for job queueing and retry mechanisms.
Connects to a Redis server for job persistence.
Gracefully handles application shutdown.

Usage

Adding Emails to the Queue

You can add emails to the queue by calling the addToQueue function with the recipient email and device information. This will add a job to the Bull queue and handle retries if the email sending fails.

Example:

const { addToQueue } = require('./queues/emailQueue');

addToQueue('recipient@example.com', {
    DeviceName: "Device-112",
    DeviceId: "KT5138",
    Action: "Power is Connected",
    MacId: "00:1A:2B:3C:4D:5E",
    TimeofActivity: new Date().toISOString()
});
