I love Task Queues. We are using them extensively. Also, they give you deduplication for free and a lot of other nice features like delayed tasks storing tasks for up to 30 days extremely detailed rate limits etc.
- latchkey 3y agoGCP is really under rated in this regard. Are there any open source implementations of Task Queues? It feels like something that has been missing for years.
- lysecret 3y agoYea, this is the only thing I don't like about them, that I can't test them locally. More generally, is there something like a "on prem cloud" which just replicates say Cloud Tasks (but also other Cloud Apis) using local compute as well as say a local db. For testing / development this would be very cool.
- latchkey 3y agoI implemented my tasks as cloud functions, so I just test Tasks the same way I tested functions... by calling the handler function directly.
