gocraft/work is a Go library for enqueuing and processing durable background jobs backed by Redis, similar to Sidekiq. It supports retries, scheduled and periodic jobs, unique jobs, middleware, concurrency control, and a web UI for monitoring failed jobs.
Use cases
- process background jobs in go
- send emails asynchronously from a go app
- retry failed jobs with redis-backed queue
- run cron-like scheduled jobs in go
- enqueue unique jobs to avoid duplicates
- monitor and manage failed background jobs with a web ui
When to choose
- you need durable, Redis-backed background job processing in Go
- you want Sidekiq-style semantics like retries, scheduling, and unique jobs
- you need job middleware for metrics and logging
- you want a web UI to inspect failed jobs
When to avoid
- you don't want a Redis dependency
- you need a distributed task queue without Redis, like Celery with other brokers
- you need a library under very active development with frequent updates
