ExqUI

ExqUI provides a UI dashboard for Exq, a job processing library compatible with Resque / Sidekiq for the Elixir language. ExqUI allow you to see various job processing stats, as well as details on failed, retried, scheduled jobs, etc.

Configuration

1. ExqUI depends on the api server component of the exq. The user of ExqUI is expected to start the Exq with proper config. The only config required on ExqUI side is the name of the api server. It's set to Exq.Api by default.

   config :exq_ui,
     api_name: Exq.Api

   There are two typical scenarios

   If ExqUI is embedded in a worker node which runs exq jobs, then nothing special needs to be done. Exq by default starts the api server on all worker nodes.

   If ExqUI needs to be embedded in a node which is not a worker, then Exq can be started in api mode, which will only start the api gen server and will not pickup jobs for execution. This can be done by configuring the mode.

   config :exq,
     mode: :api

2. ExqUI uses Phoenix LiveView. If you already use LiveView, skip to next step. Otherwise follow LiveView installation docs.

3. In your phoenix router import ExqUIWeb.Router and add live_exq_ui(path)

defmodule DemoWeb.Router do
  use Phoenix.Router
  import ExqUIWeb.Router

  pipeline :browser do
    plug :fetch_session
    plug :protect_from_forgery
  end

  scope "/", DemoWeb do
    pipe_through :browser

    live_exq_ui("/exq")
  end
end
