ecto_job v3.0.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2019-10-24 // over 4 years ago
  • 🔖 Version 3.0 adds support for prioritizing jobs within each job queue. 👷 The priority option can be given when creating a Job:

    %{"type" => "SendEmail", "address" => "[email protected]", "body" => "Welcome!"}
    |> MyApp.JobQueue.new(priority: 2, max_attempts: 2)
    |> MyApp.Repo.insert()
    

    0️⃣ Lower numbers run first, the default value is 0.
