Getters

When jobs are added to a queue, they will be in different statuses during their lifetime. BullMQ provides methods to retrieve information and jobs from the different statuses.

Lifecycle of a job

Job Counts

It is often necessary to know how many jobs are in a given status:

TypeScript

import { Queue } from 'bullmq';

const myQueue = new Queue('Paint');

const counts = await myQueue.getJobCounts('wait', 'completed', 'failed');

// Returns an object like this { wait: number, completed: number, failed: number }

Python

The available status are:

• completed,

• failed,

• delayed,

• active,

• wait,

• waiting-children,

• prioritized,

• paused, and

• repeat.

Get Jobs

It is also possible to retrieve the jobs with pagination style semantics. For example:

TypeScript

const completed = await myQueue.getJobs(['completed'], 0, 100, true);

// returns the oldest 100 jobs
