Relevant documentation [here](http://python-rq.org/docs/jobs/). - Custom properties can be set by modifying the `job.meta` dict. Relevant documentation [here](http://python-rq.org/docs/jobs/). - `rqworker` now has an optional `--password` flag. - Remove `logbook` dependency (in favor of `logging`) ### 0.3.2 (September 3rd, 2012) - Fixes broken `rqinfo` command. - Improve compatibility with Python < 2.7. ### 0.3.1 (August 30th, 2012) - `.enqueue()` now takes a `result_ttl` keyword argument that can be used to change the expiration time of results. - Queue constructor now takes an optional `async=False` argument to bypass the worker (for testing purposes). - Jobs now carry status information. To get job status information, like whether a job is queued, finished, or failed, use the property `status`, or one of the new boolean accessor properties `is_queued`, `is_finished` or `is_failed`. - Jobs return values are always stored explicitly, even if they have to explicit return value or return `None` (with given TTL of course). This makes it possible to distinguish between a job that explicitly returned `None` and a job that isn't finished yet (see `status` property). - Custom exception handlers can now be configured in addition to, or to fully replace, moving failed jobs to the failed queue. Relevant documentation [here](http://python-rq.org/docs/exceptions/) and [here](http://python-rq.org/patterns/sentry/). - `rqworker` now supports passing in configuration files instead of the many command line options: `rqworker -c settings` will source `settings.py`. - `rqworker` now supports one-flag setup to enable Sentry as its exception handler: `rqworker --sentry-dsn="http://public:secret@example.com/1"` Alternatively, you can use a settings file and configure `SENTRY_DSN = 'http://public:secret@example.com/1'` instead. ### 0.3.0 (August 5th, 2012) - Reliability improvements - Warm shutdown now exits immediately when Ctrl+C is pressed and worker is idle - Worker does not leak worker registrations anymore when stopped gracefully - `.enqueue()` does not consume the `timeout` kwarg anymore. Instead, to pass RQ a timeout value while enqueueing a function, use the explicit invocation instead: ```python q.enqueue(do_something, args=(1, 2), kwargs={'a': 1}, timeout=30) ``` - Add a `@job` decorator, which can be used to do Celery-style delayed invocations: ```python from redis import StrictRedis from rq.decorators import job # Connect to Redis redis = StrictRedis() @job('high', timeout=10, connection=redis) def some_work(x, y): return x + y ``` Then, in another module, you can call `some_work`: ```python from foo.bar import some_work some_work.delay(2, 3) ``` ### 0.2.2 (August 1st, 2012) - Fix bug where return values that couldn't be pickled crashed the worker ### 0.2.1 (July 20th, 2012) - Fix important bug where result data wasn't restored from Redis correctly (affected non-string results only). ### 0.2.0 (July 18th, 2012) - `q.enqueue()` accepts instance methods now, too. Objects will be pickle'd along with the instance method, so beware. - `q.enqueue()` accepts string specification of functions now, too. Example: `q.enqueue("my.math.lib.fibonacci", 5)`. Useful if the worker and the submitter of work don't share code bases. - Job can be assigned custom attrs and they will be pickle'd along with the rest of the job's attrs. Can be used when writing RQ extensions. - Workers can now accept explicit connections, like Queues. - Various bug fixes. ### 0.1.2 (May 15, 2012) - Fix broken PyPI deployment. ### 0.1.1 (May 14, 2012) - Thread-safety by using context locals - Register scripts as console_scripts, for better portability - Various bugfixes. ### 0.1.0: (March 28, 2012) - Initially released version.
