# RRQ: Reliable Redis Queue

RRQ is a Redis-backed job queue **system** with a Rust orchestrator and a
language-agnostic executor protocol. Producers can enqueue jobs from Python,
Rust, or any language that can write the job schema to Redis. Executors can be
written in any language that can speak the socket protocol. The orchestrator is
implemented in Rust, with executors available in multiple languages.

## At a Glance

- **Rust orchestrator**: schedules, retries, timeouts, DLQ, cron.
- **Unix socket executors**: Python, Rust, or any other runtime.
- **Python SDK**: enqueue jobs and run a Python executor runtime.

```

Executors return outcomes to the orchestrator; the orchestrator persists job
state/results back to Redis.

## Requirements

- Python 3.11+ (producer + Python executor runtime)
- Rust `rrq` binary (bundled in wheels or provided separately)
- Redis 5.0+

If you ship the Rust binary separately, set `RRQ_RUST_BIN` to its path.

## Quickstart

### 1) Install

```
uv pip install rrq
```

### 2) Create `rrq.toml`

```toml
[rrq]
redis_dsn = "redis://localhost:6379/1"
default_executor_name = "python"

[rrq.executors.python]
type = "socket"
cmd = ["rrq-executor", "--settings", "myapp.executor_config.python_executor_settings"]
# Optional: override the directory used for executor sockets.
# socket_dir = "/tmp/rrq-executor"
# Optional: use a localhost TCP socket instead of Unix sockets (pool_size must be 1).
# tcp_socket = "127.0.0.1:9000"
```

### 3) Register Python handlers

```python
# executor_config.py
from rrq.config import load_toml_settings
from rrq.executor_settings import PythonExecutorSettings
from rrq.registry import JobRegistry

from . import handlers

job_registry = JobRegistry()
job_registry.register("process_message", handlers.process_message)

rrq_settings = load_toml_settings("rrq.toml")

python_executor_settings = PythonExecutorSettings(
    rrq_settings=rrq_settings,
    job_registry=job_registry,
)
```

### 4) Run the Python executor

```
rrq-executor --settings myapp.executor_config.python_executor_settings
```

### 5) Run the Rust orchestrator

```
rrq worker run --config rrq.toml
```

### 6) Enqueue jobs (Python)

```python
import asyncio
from rrq.client import RRQClient
from rrq.config import load_toml_settings

async def main():
    settings = load_toml_settings("rrq.toml")
    client = RRQClient(settings=settings)
    await client.enqueue("process_message", "hello")
    await client.close()

asyncio.run(main())
```

## Configuration

`rrq.toml` is the source of truth for the orchestrator and executors. Key areas:

- `[rrq]` basic settings (Redis, retries, timeouts, poll delay)
- `[rrq.executors.<name>]` socket executor commands, pool sizes, and
  `max_in_flight`
- `[rrq.routing]` queue → executor mapping
- `[[rrq.cron_jobs]]` periodic scheduling
- `[rrq.watch]` watch mode defaults (path/patterns)

See `docs/CONFIG_REFERENCE.md` for the full TOML schema,
`docs/CLI_REFERENCE.md` for CLI details, and `docs/EXECUTOR_PROTOCOL.md` for
wire format.

## Cron Jobs (rrq.toml)

Use `[[rrq.cron_jobs]]` entries to enqueue periodic jobs while a worker is
running. Schedules are evaluated in UTC.

```toml
[[rrq.cron_jobs]]
function_name = "process_message"
schedule = "0 * * * * *"
args = ["cron payload"]
kwargs = { source = "cron" }
queue_name = "default"
unique = true
```

Fields:
- `function_name` (required): Handler name to enqueue.
- `schedule` (required): Cron expression with seconds (6-field format).
- `args` / `kwargs`: Optional arguments passed to the handler.
- `queue_name`: Optional override for the target queue.
- `unique`: Optional; uses a per-function unique lock to prevent duplicates.

## CLI Overview (Rust `rrq`)

- `rrq worker run`, `rrq worker watch`
- `rrq check`
- `rrq queue list|stats|inspect`
- `rrq job show|list|trace|replay|cancel`
- `rrq dlq list|stats|inspect|requeue`
- `rrq debug generate-jobs|generate-workers|submit|clear|stress-test`

## Worker Watch Mode

`rrq worker watch` runs a normal worker loop plus a filesystem watcher. It
watches a path recursively and normalizes change paths before matching include
globs (default `*.py`, `*.toml`) and ignore globs. A matching change triggers a
graceful worker shutdown, closes executors, and starts a fresh worker. Watch
mode is intended for local development; executor pool sizes and
`max_in_flight` are forced to 1 to keep restarts lightweight. It also respects
`.gitignore` and `.git/info/exclude` by default; disable with `--no-gitignore`.

You can also configure watch defaults in `rrq.toml`:

```toml
[rrq.watch]
path = "."
include_patterns = ["*.py", "*.toml"]
ignore_patterns = [".venv/**", "dist/**"]
no_gitignore = false
```

## Executor Logs

Executors can emit logs to stdout/stderr. The orchestrator captures these lines
and emits them with executor prefixes. Structured logging is not part of the
wire protocol.

## Testing

Runtime-only Python tests (producer + executor + store):

```
uv run pytest
```

End-to-end integration (Python-only, Rust-only, mixed):

```
uv run python -m examples.integration_test
```

executor runtime. See `rrq/integrations/`.
