# Asynqmon Asynqmon is a command line tool to monitor the tasks managed by `asynq` package. ## Table of Contents - [Installation](#installation) - [Quick Start](#quick-start) - [Stats](#stats) - [History](#history) - [List](#list) - [Enqueue](#enqueue) - [Delete](#delete) - [Kill](#kill) - [Config File](#config-file) ## Installation In order to use the tool, compile it using the following command: go get github.com/hibiken/asynq/tools/asynqmon This will create the asynqmon executable under your `$GOPATH/bin` directory. ## Quick Start The tool has a few commands to inspect the state of tasks and queues. Run `asynqmon help` to see all the available commands. Asynqmon needs to connect to a redis-server to inspect the state of queues and tasks. Use flags to specify the options to connect to the redis-server used by your application. By default, Asynqmon will try to connect to a redis server running at `localhost:6379`. ### Stats Stats command gives the overview of the current state of tasks and queues. You can run it in conjunction with `watch` command to repeatedly run `stats`. Example: watch -n 3 asynqmon stats This will run `asynqmon stats` command every 3 seconds. ![Gif](/docs/assets/asynqmon_stats.gif) ### History History command shows the number of processed and failed tasks from the last x days. By default, it shows the stats from the last 10 days. Use `--days` to specify the number of days. Example: asynqmon history --days=30 ![Gif](/docs/assets/asynqmon_history.gif) ### List List command shows all tasks in the specified state in a table format Example: asynqmon ls retry asynqmon ls scheduled asynqmon ls dead asynqmon ls enqueued:default asynqmon ls inprogress ### Enqueue There are two commands to enqueue tasks. Command `enq` takes a task ID and moves the task to **Enqueued** state. You can obtain the task ID by running `ls` command. Example: asynqmon enq d:1575732274:bnogo8gt6toe23vhef0g Command `enqall` moves all tasks to **Enqueued** state from the specified state. Example: asynqmon enqall retry Running the above command will move all **Retry** tasks to **Enqueued** state. ### Delete There are two commands for task deletion. Command `del` takes a task ID and deletes the task. You can obtain the task ID by running `ls` command. Example: asynqmon del r:1575732274:bnogo8gt6toe23vhef0g Command `delall` deletes all tasks which are in the specified state. Example: asynqmon delall retry Running the above command will delete all **Retry** tasks. ### Kill There are two commands to kill (i.e. move to dead state) tasks. Command `kill` takes a task ID and kills the task. You can obtain the task ID by running `ls` command. Example: asynqmon kill r:1575732274:bnogo8gt6toe23vhef0g Command `killall` kills all tasks which are in the specified state. Example: asynqmon killall retry Running the above command will move all **Retry** tasks to **Dead** state. ## Config File You can use a config file to set default values for the flags. This is useful, for example when you have to connect to a remote redis server. By default, `asynqmon` will try to read config file located in `$HOME/.asynqmon.(yaml|json)`. You can specify the file location via `--config` flag. Config file example: ```yaml uri: 127.0.0.1:6379 db: 2 password: mypassword ``` This will set the default values for `--uri`, `--db`, and `--password` flags.
