Minion inherits all methods from Mojo::EventEmitter and implements the following new ones.
add_task
$minion = $minion->add_task(foo => sub {...});
$minion = $minion->add_task(foo => 'MyApp::Task::Foo');
Register a task, which can be a closure or a custom Minion::Job subclass. Note that support for custom
task classes is EXPERIMENTAL and might change without warning!
# Job with result
$minion->add_task(add => sub ($job, $first, $second) {
$job->finish($first + $second);
});
my $id = $minion->enqueue(add => [1, 1]);
my $result = $minion->job($id)->info->{result};
broadcast
my $bool = $minion->broadcast('some_command');
my $bool = $minion->broadcast('some_command', [@args]);
my $bool = $minion->broadcast('some_command', [@args], [$id1, $id2, $id3]);
Broadcast remote control command to one or more workers.
# Broadcast "stop" command to all workers to kill job 10025
$minion->broadcast('stop', [10025]);
# Broadcast "kill" command to all workers to interrupt job 10026
$minion->broadcast('kill', ['INT', 10026]);
# Broadcast "jobs" command to pause worker 23
$minion->broadcast('jobs', [0], [23]);
class_for_task
my $class = $minion->class_for_task('foo');
Return job class for task. Note that this method is EXPERIMENTAL and might change without warning!
enqueue
my $id = $minion->enqueue('foo');
my $id = $minion->enqueue(foo => [@args]);
my $id = $minion->enqueue(foo => [@args] => {priority => 1});
Enqueue a new job with "inactive" state. Arguments get serialized by the "backend" (often with
Mojo::JSON), so you shouldn't send objects and be careful with binary data, nested data structures with
hash and array references are fine though.
These options are currently available:
attempts
attempts => 25
Number of times performing this job will be attempted, with a delay based on "backoff" after the first
attempt, defaults to 1.
delay
delay => 10
Delay job for this many seconds (from now), defaults to 0.
expire
expire => 300
Job is valid for this many seconds (from now) before it expires.
lax
lax => 1
Existing jobs this job depends on may also have transitioned to the "failed" state to allow for it to
be processed, defaults to "false". Note that this option is EXPERIMENTAL and might change without
warning!
notes
notes => {foo => 'bar', baz => [1, 2, 3]}
Hash reference with arbitrary metadata for this job that gets serialized by the "backend" (often with
Mojo::JSON), so you shouldn't send objects and be careful with binary data, nested data structures with
hash and array references are fine though.
parents
parents => [$id1, $id2, $id3]
One or more existing jobs this job depends on, and that need to have transitioned to the state
"finished" before it can be processed.
priority
priority => 5
Job priority, defaults to 0. Jobs with a higher priority get performed first. Priorities can be
positive or negative, but should be in the range between 100 and -100.
queue
queue => 'important'
Queue to put job in, defaults to "default".
foreground
my $bool = $minion->foreground($id);
Retry job in "minion_foreground" queue, then perform it right away with a temporary worker in this
process, very useful for debugging.
guard
my $guard = $minion->guard('foo', 3600);
my $guard = $minion->guard('foo', 3600, {limit => 20});
Same as "lock", but returns a scope guard object that automatically releases the lock as soon as the
object is destroyed, or "undef" if aquiring the lock failed.
# Only one job should run at a time (unique job)
$minion->add_task(do_unique_stuff => sub ($job, @args) {
return $job->finish('Previous job is still active')
unless my $guard = $minion->guard('fragile_backend_service', 7200);
...
});
# Only five jobs should run at a time and we try again later if necessary
$minion->add_task(do_concurrent_stuff => sub ($job, @args) {
return $job->retry({delay => 30})
unless my $guard = $minion->guard('some_web_service', 60, {limit => 5});
...
});
history
my $history = $minion->history;
Get history information for job queue.
These fields are currently available:
daily
daily => [{epoch => 12345, finished_jobs => 95, failed_jobs => 2}, ...]
Hourly counts for processed jobs from the past day.
is_locked
my $bool = $minion->is_locked('foo');
Check if a lock with that name is currently active.
job
my $job = $minion->job($id);
Get Minion::Job object without making any changes to the actual job or return "undef" if job does not
exist.
# Check job state
my $state = $minion->job($id)->info->{state};
# Get job metadata
my $progress = $minion->job($id)->info->{notes}{progress};
# Get job result
my $result = $minion->job($id)->info->{result};
jobs
my $jobs = $minion->jobs;
my $jobs = $minion->jobs({states => ['inactive']});
Return Minion::Iterator object to safely iterate through job information.
# Iterate through jobs for two tasks
my $jobs = $minion->jobs({tasks => ['foo', 'bar']});
while (my $info = $jobs->next) {
say "$info->{id}: $info->{state}";
}
# Remove all failed jobs from a named queue
my $jobs = $minion->jobs({states => ['failed'], queues => ['unimportant']});
while (my $info = $jobs->next) {
$minion->job($info->{id})->remove;
}
# Count failed jobs for a task
say $minion->jobs({states => ['failed'], tasks => ['foo']})->total;

lock
my $bool = $minion->lock('foo', 3600);
my $bool = $minion->lock('foo', 3600, {limit => 20});
Try to acquire a named lock that will expire automatically after the given amount of time in seconds. You
can release the lock manually with "unlock" to limit concurrency, or let it expire for rate limiting. For
convenience you can also use "guard" to release the lock automatically, even if the job failed.
# Only one job should run at a time (unique job)
$minion->add_task(do_unique_stuff => sub ($job, @args) {
return $job->finish('Previous job is still active')
unless $minion->lock('fragile_backend_service', 7200);
...
$minion->unlock('fragile_backend_service');
});
# Only five jobs should run at a time and we wait for our turn
$minion->add_task(do_concurrent_stuff => sub ($job, @args) {
sleep 1 until $minion->lock('some_web_service', 60, {limit => 5});
...
$minion->unlock('some_web_service');
});
# Only a hundred jobs should run per hour and we try again later if necessary
$minion->add_task(do_rate_limited_stuff => sub ($job, @args) {
return $job->retry({delay => 3600})
unless $minion->lock('another_web_service', 3600, {limit => 100});
...
});
An expiration time of 0 can be used to check if a named lock could have been acquired without creating
one.
# Check if the lock "foo" could have been acquired
say 'Lock could have been acquired' unless $minion->lock('foo', 0);
Or to simply check if a named lock already exists you can also use "is_locked".

Return a Mojo::Promise object for the result of a job. The state "finished" will result in the promise
being "fullfilled", and the state "failed" in the promise being "rejected". This operation can be
cancelled by resolving the promise manually at any time.
# Enqueue job and receive the result at some point in the future
my $id = $minion->enqueue('foo');
$minion->result_p($id)->then(sub ($info) {

else { $job->finish }
$worker->unregister;
# Build a custom worker performing multiple jobs at the same time
my %jobs;
my $worker = $minion->repair->worker->register;
do {
for my $id (keys %jobs) {
delete $jobs{$id} if $jobs{$id}->is_finished;
}
if (keys %jobs >= 4) { sleep 5 }
else {
my $job = $worker->dequeue(5);
$jobs{$job->id} = $job->start if $job;
}
} while keys %jobs;
$worker->unregister;
workers
my $workers = $minion->workers;
my $workers = $minion->workers({ids => [2, 3]});
