Queuebase is the easiest way to schedule and run background jobs in Next.js
Background jobs are hard. We've done the tricky parts for you, letting you focus on what matters.
Run background jobs within your Next.js app. No need to setup a separate server.
View the latest status of your jobs within the dashboard and get notified when they fail.
Your jobs run on your infrastructure, giving you the flexibility to deploy to any platform.
Queuebase was inspired by the developer experience of tools like tRPC and UploadThing. It focuses on being as simple as possible, letting you starting scheduling jobs in minutes.
1
The first step is to define your jobs.
In this job, we're saying "Hello" to whatever name we passed in. Then, we export our jobs object to be used in our code.
2
Next, we create a new endpoint in Next.js (using the app router) that exposes a POST endpoint.
The POST request is what Queuebase will call when executing a job.
3
The job client is what you use to interact with your jobs. It's what allows you to queue and run your jobs.
4
Finally, we can run our job!
Our job will be queued in Queuebase. When it runs, Queuebase will make a POST request back to our app that includes the name of this job and it's payload. And yes, jobs can be queued from both the client and the server!
At the very end, we should see "Hello, Brock" printed in our terminal!

Background jobs in Next.js are hard.
The idea to build Queuebase came to me after a lot of frustration trying to do background jobs in my Next.js apps. No solution I tried really felt right to me. They were either overly complex in terms of setup or barely maintained. I set out to build a simple yet powerful solution for scheduling background jobs in Next.js, one that all developers could use and enjoy.
Queuebase is still new and under active development. However, if you're looking to add job scheduling to your Next.js app and you're interested in trying my product out, please don't hesitate to reach out to me via Twitter or Email.
I would be happy to offer a 6 month pro plan free in exchange for your feedback!
