verified Jun 5, 2026

A simple yet powerful PostgreSQL-backed job queue for Node.js (version 4.4.2). It provides persistent job creation, scheduled processing, and immediate processing with locking. Unlike alternative libraries (e.g., Kue, Bull) that require Redis, pg-jobs leverages PostgreSQL for storage and atomic operations, making it ideal for projects already using PostgreSQL. The library has a low release cadence but is stable for production use. Key features: job scheduling with delays, concurrent worker support, and automatic table creation via migrations.
