Huey

Huey is a lightweight, versatile task queue that gives Python developers a clean and simple API for background job processing.

Key Features:

• Flexible Storage - Choose Redis, SQLite, file-system, or in-memory storage as your backend.
• Task Scheduling - Schedule tasks at specific times, after delays, or with crontab-style periodic execution.
• Task Pipelines - Chain tasks together into pipelines for sequential batch processing workflows.
• Auto-Retry - Automatically retry failed tasks with configurable delays and attempt limits.
• Task Prioritization - Assign priorities to ensure critical jobs are processed first.
• Multiple Execution Models - Run with multi-process, multi-thread, or greenlet workers.

Whether you're processing scraped data, running periodic extracts, or handling lightweight background tasks, Huey provides a minimal yet feature-rich solution.
