It is backed by Redis or Valkey and is designed to have a low barrier to entry while scaling incredibly well for large applications. It can be integrated into your web stack easily, making it suitable for projects of any size—from simple applications to high-volume enterprise systems. RQ requires Redis >= 4 or Valkey >= 7.2. [Build status] [PyPI] [Coverage] [![Code style: Ruff]](https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff) Full documentation can be found [here][d]. ## Support RQ If you find RQ useful, please consider supporting this project via [Tidelift]. ## Getting started First, run a Redis server, of course: ```console $ redis-server ``` To put jobs on queues, you don't have to do anything special, just define your typically lengthy or blocking function: ```python import requests def count_words_at_url(url): """Just an example function that's called async.""" resp = requests.get(url) return len(resp.text.split()) ``` Then, create an RQ queue: ```python from redis import Redis from rq import Queue queue = Queue(connection=Redis()) ``` And enqueue the function call: ```python from my_module import count_words_at_url job = queue.enqueue(count_words_at_url, 'http://nvie.com') ``` ## Scheduling Jobs Scheduling jobs is also easy: ```python # Schedule job to run at 9:15, October 10th job = queue.enqueue_at(datetime(2019, 10, 10, 9, 15), say_hello) # Schedule job to run in 10 seconds job = queue.enqueue_in(timedelta(seconds=10), say_hello) ``` ## Repeating Jobs To execute a `Job` multiple times, use the `Repeat` class: ```python from rq import Queue, Repeat # Repeat job 3 times after successful execution, with 30 second intervals queue.enqueue(my_function, repeat=Repeat(times=3, interval=30)) # Repeat job 3 times with different intervals between runs queue.enqueue(my_function, repeat=Repeat(times=3, interval=[5, 10, 15])) ``` ## Retrying Failed Jobs Retrying failed jobs is also supported: ```python from rq import Retry # Retry up to 3 times, failed job will be requeued immediately queue.enqueue(say_hello, retry=Retry(max=3)) # Retry up to 3 times, with configurable intervals between retries queue.enqueue(say_hello, retry=Retry(max=3, interval=[10, 30, 60])) ``` [FILE:115:distinfo] bf4dc622a7b9d5f7d4a39444f26d89ce6de8a1d6db61b21060612114dbf8d5ff 100389 python-src/rq-2.3.2-py3-none-any.whl
