Documentation - Diagram - Redis keys

Open Laykou opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

I'd like to ask if there already is or if you could add documentation about Redis keys and maybe a flow chart?

E.g. what is "AVAILABLE", "EXISTS" and "GRABBED" keys in Redis?

Sometimes we have problems that digest is not anymore under unique:* but there are locks under uniquejobs:* and we need to manually delete the keys via RedisCommander I thought these two should be synchronized...

Anyway better understanding about how Unique Jobs works could help everyone to better debug their code and background jobs.

I am currently working on adding some transparency and rethinking logging which would also help. Not able to cut out as much time as I would like but I appreciate your suggestion.

As for the the digests being split between unique:* and uniquejobs:* it sounds like a bug... Do you have multiple services/workers against the same redis instance?

Thanks for the suggestion @Laykou. I'll see if I can whip together something for the v7 release.
