Drupal 8

Provides a better queue API for Drupal 8.

Queues are configuration entities with an associated backend plugin. The backend plugin is responsible for enqueueing and manipulating jobs. Each job has a type (JobType plugin), responsible for processing it.

Example:

$job = Job::create('commerce_recurring_renew_order', ['order_id' => '10']);
// Any queue can hold any job. Having different queues
// allows grouping jobs by different criteria.
// High vs low priority. Processed by cron or Drush/Console.
// One in SQL, one in Redis. Etc.
$queue = Queue::load('default');
$queue->enqueueJob($job);

Features:

Job states (queued/processing/success/failure)
Job results (state, message, processing time stored on the job)
Retries (configurable per job type or per job)
Delayed processing (run the job in 10 days, retry in 1 day, etc)
API support for bulk job creation and interfaces for optional features
Drush and Drupal Console commands for processing queues
Views-powered job listings
