DESCRIPTION ============== Advanced Queue is an extended queuing module fully backward compatible with and a drop-in replacement of DrupalQueue. Supports: * A Drush-based execution engine for queued job, supporting executing multiple queues at the same time and timeouts * A "poor-man's" processing via cron. * Human readable, translatable names for queued items * Tags for queued items * Status of queued items (new, being processed, succeeded, failed), and result payload * Views integration In order to use Drush based execution engine your module must provide hook_advanced_queue_info() in which a processing callback (worker) must be declared. This callback will receive the item being processed and process it. Enable the "Advanced-queue example" module to see it in action. Note that by default the "poor-man's" processing via cron is enabled, as it allows site builders to start with the non-scalable and later on, more advanced users can disable that option via admin/config/system/cron. DRUSH WORKERS ============= It is possible to execute the Drush command that will loop and "listen" to the queue, and process items once they are added. It is considered a best practice to execute the Drush command with a timeout of 15 minutes, and use supervisord to restart it once it dies. This will help making sure there are no serious memory leaks. For example: drush advancedqueue --all --timeout=900 An example of daemonized queue runners in a manager process can be found here: https://github.com/nvahalik/advancedqueue-runner SPONSORS & MAINTAINERS ======================= * Sponsored by Publicis Modem * Developed and sponsored by Commerce Guys http://commerceguys.com/ * Developed by Gizra http://www.gizra.com/
