Detach queue from database without processing all jobs before

[ebekebe]

I have the following problem: I have several workers that fetch jobs from the database and process them. There are always new jobs coming in, so I cannot pause the queue, because there will always be new jobs and the pause promise will not resolve. I want to shut down the worker gracefully. Is there a way to do this?

Yes, Queue.stop will do this for you. It will only stop the local Queue object, not the whole queue.

Thanks for making this clear.
