Did you have any luck?  I'm now looking for the exact same thing.

I'm surprised at the lack of a good all-around time-based scheduler.  Kue and Resque are the closest I am finding, but they don't quite do it.

Thanks,

Paul

Hi,

I'm starting with Node.JS, and I'm writing an app that will schedule tasks to run at pre-set times.

Some tasks are one-offs, some are recurring - they involve things like checking if a host is up, or grepping a remote file, or checking for a running process.

So basically, I'm looking for the equavilent of Celery but in Node.

I did find Kue (https://github.com/learnboost/kue), which just from reading the homepage seems like the closest match, and is in pure JS.

There's also coffee-resque (https://github.com/technoweenie/coffee-resque), however, I'm not sure how active that is, and I'd need to setup Resque as well.

Do others have thoughts or experiences in job queue systems in Node? What worked well and didn't?

Cheers,
Victor

you could also take a look at something like later and a few of the “cron” modules available. Though, yeah, seems like kue is probably closest thing, not that writing your own simple task scheduler is that hard.
