  4. Asynq

    Simple, reliable, and efficient distributed task queue in Go

    Although asynq[0] seems to cover more serious usecases, I like its simplicity where it does not need any dependency other than go.

  5. que-go

    Discontinued UNMAINTAINED: An interoperable Golang port of the Ruby Que queuing library for PostgreSQL. Use River instead.

    Noice! I am keen to give this a go.. the broker code are small and seems easy enough to implement for different backends.

    having a quick glance, it does remind me a lot of que-go (https://github.com/bgentry/que-go) that is inspired by similar project written in ruby which use postgresql lock cleverly to take tasks from queue, work on it and release lock.

    I liked the implementation so much and how easy it was to write worker for it, i ended up modifying it to use go channel (https://github.com/santrancisco/cque) as queue for worker task.. i used it in several personal projects over the years for cli tools that can leverage from having async tasks/jobs handle by workers.
