A framework for distributed job execution. A hybrid of Resque, Sidekiq, and cron(8), based on go-workers.

Enqueues tasks periodically based on a given configuration file (see sample).

postpone-scheduler --config=schedule.json

But, really, you should wrap that in consul lock and run multiple instances.

consul lock apps/postpone/scheduler postpone-scheduler --config=schedule.json

Of course, the process should be supervised, too. Furthermore, you probably want to put the schedule config into Consul and render it with consul-template.

Both JSON and YAML syntaxes are supported.

Run up to 3 concurrent jobs submitted to the shell.high queue:

postpone-shell-worker --queue=shell.high --concurrency=3

Obviously the commands specified in the enqueued jobs must be available to the shell-worker.
