huey - a little task queue

http://media.charlesleifer.com/blog/photos/huey-logo.png

a lightweight alternative.

  • written in python
  • no deps outside the standard lib, except Redis (or you can roll your own backend)
  • support for Django

supports:

  • multi-threaded task execution
  • scheduled execution at a given time
  • periodic execution, like a crontab
  • retrying tasks that fail
  • task result storage
