agenda VS uuid

While many ways to write scalable Node.js applications exist, all narrow down to the underlying architecture. However, common hurdles in Node.js include serving static files, task scheduling, and utilizing available resources. To combat these, you can use a tactical approach. Because serving static assets with Node.js takes CPU time, a proxy content delivery network like CloudFront should help fix it. Recurring tasks need to fire events, which isn’t reliable with setTimeout or setInterval. As a solution, you can use a task scheduler framework like agenda.js. To handle resource utilization, you can use the cluster feature in Node.js, which listens to ports, accepts new connections, and distributes them across workers with built-in smarts to avoid overloading the process.

Now we have the materialized view and we need to update it daily. For this, we'll use Agenda, a light-weight job scheduling library for Node.js with Mongo backed persistence layer.

There are many job queue implementations for Node.js, including Bull, Bee, and Agenda.

Agenda JS is an alternative to bull that uses MongoDB rather than redis. Not saying one is better than the other, just giving alternatives.

If processing the file is going to take a relatively long time, you should send it to some asynchronous background process and immediately send a response to the user with status 202, then notify them later somehow if processing the file failed. Agenda is a good candidate for scheduling/managing more complex background tasks like this.

So I thought of 2 approaches, one using [agenda](https://github.com/agenda/agenda] and other using setTimeouts and storing the unique id for particular user in database. I am not sure which of the approach is scalable and maintainable in long run for thousands of users having daily activities.

i think it would be helpful if you provided some links to what you're talking about. How on earth are we supposed to help without knowing which agenda package you're referring to? I went through the agenda github repo and not one of those files mentioned in your post even exists in that repo........

For more advanced use cases, you might want to look into using a full-featured job queue instead like bree, bull, or agenda.

I got this error when using a library with ECMAScript Module (ESM), such as [udid](https://github.com/uuidjs/uuid):

It has been decided to use uuid Version 4 for all of them. Noteworthy is the CommentId, which serves as the identifier for entities within the boundary, meaning local identifiers. For this case, there is no necessity to use uuid. Evans used positions such as front-left, rear-left, front- right, and rear-right to identify the wheels of a car. However, unlike wheels, no straightforward, real-world, understandable means of identification for CommentId came to my mind, so the uuid framework was adopted as a convenient and easy generation method.

.husky: Git hooks are custom scripts that run in response to some event (e.g. before a commit is created), and they can choose to abort that event under certain conditions. One of their main drawbacks though is that they live inside the .git folder, which means they cannot be directly versioned like the rest of the project. This folder is used by the popular Husky package that makes it possible to include Git hooks with your project and it takes care of installing them to their appropriate location so they can be detected by Git. Example from uuid.

Some popular npm packages for generating UUIDs in JavaScript are the uuid and short-uuid packages.

My first thought is to use something like https://github.com/uuidjs/uuid

activePlayers is a map of unique player IDs (determined by clients via uuid to timestamps of when they last made a GET https://farmhand.vercel.app/api/get-market-data?room=global request. Each time the function is invoked, it examines the map to see which timestamps are older than the HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL_PERIOD (currently 10 seconds) and deletes any that are expired. This data is returned to the client and also written back to Redis to be persisted across function invocations. This is how the active room participants are tracked.

By default Next.js uses nanoid to produce build ids so I used that too. You don't have to use it, there are other options, such as uuid.

You need to include some third-party libraries such as CometChat Widget, Uuid, Validator, Firebase via CDN because you are building the Javascript chat app. Therefore, npm should not be used here. You need to add those libraries for some reasons:
