When do you need bredis?
------------------------

[](#when-do-you-need-bredis)

You need `bredis` when all of these are applied:

1. **You don't want your jobs to be delayed because your workers are currently sleeping.**
2. You don't want to run `queue:work --sleep=0` on current Redis queue driver because it will devour your CPU when there is no job.

Hence, you need your workers to idle-wait for a job and process them just when they arrive, with nearly no delay. With `bredis` you can happily run `queue:work --sleep=0` without worrying about busy waiting and CPU overload.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

### 1. Install the package via compioser

[](#1-install-the-package-via-compioser)

```
composer require halaei/bredis

```

### 2. Add the service provider to your config/app.php

[](#2-add-the-service-provider-to-your-configappphp)

```
Halaei\BRedis\BlockingRedisServiceProvider::class

```

### 3. Add bredis connections to app/queue.php

[](#3-add-bredis-connections-to-appqueuephp)

```
'bredis' => [
    'driver'      => 'bredis',
    'connection'  => 'default',
    'queue'       => 'default',
    'retry_after' => 90,
    'timeout'     => 10, //Maximum seconds to wait for a job
],

```

Please note that if you need to increase 'timeout' in the config array above, you should increase 'retry\_after' in the array as well as --timeout in your `queue:work` commands.

**Warning**: bredis queue workers don't bother handling jobs that are delayed or reserved. So when using bredis workers, you have to have at least one redis worker as well.

**Note**: bredis queue driver is 100% compatible with redis driver. In other words, you may push the jobs using redis driver and pop them using bredis, or vice versa.
