Overview

Beehive is a lightweight queue system that uses Redis to store all jobs. It’s inspired by existing systems such as Minion and Stalker. Beehive does not offer a plugin system or any other fancy features, it merely allows you to queue a job and have it processed in the background.

## Features

  • Uses Redis as it’s storage mechanism.

  • Lightweight: workers don’t waste resources on loading large amounts of libraries.

  • Easy to use
