NuGet Downloads License CI

A background job queue and scheduled task runner for .NET applications. Enqueue work, schedule recurring tasks with cron expressions, and process jobs with retry policies — all built on IHostedService and Channel<T> with zero external dependencies.

Features

  • Job queue — enqueue typed jobs with priority, timeout, and retry configuration
  • Scheduled tasks — cron expressions and interval-based recurring execution
  • Retry policies — fixed, exponential backoff, or custom strategies with dead letter capture
  • Configurable concurrency — N worker threads pulling from a bounded channel
  • Scoped execution — each job gets its own DI scope for clean resource management
  • Job middleware — wrap execution with logging, timing, metrics, or custom concerns
  • Graceful shutdown — in-flight jobs complete before the host stops
  • Zero external dependencies — no Redis, no SQL, just in-process Channel<T>

Installation

dotnet add package JG.WorkerKit

Quick Start

builder.Services.AddWorkerKit(options =>
{
    options.WorkerCount = 2;
    options.DefaultRetryPolicy = RetryPolicy.Exponential(maxRetries: 3);
});

builder.Services.AddJobHandler<SendEmailData, SendEmailHandler>();
builder.Services.AddScheduledTask<CleanupTask>("0 */6 * * *");
