beanstalkd

NAME

beastalkd - A simple, fast work queue.

SYNOPSIS

beanstalkd [options]

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the beanstalkd work-queue service. The beanstalk interface is generic, but was originally designed for reducing the latency of page views in high-volume web applications by running time-consuming tasks asynchronously.

OPTIONS

A summary of options is included below.

-b <dir>

Use a binlog to keep jobs on persistent storage in <dir>. Upon startup, beanstalkd will recover any binlog that is present in <dir>, then, during normal operation, append new jobs and changes in state to the binlog.

-d

Detach and run beanstalkd as a daemon.

-f <ms>

Call fsync(2) at most once every <ms> milliseconds. This will recuce disk activity and improve speed at the cost of safety. A power failure could result in the loss of up to <ms> milliseconds of history.

A <ms> value of 0 will cause beanstalkd to call fsync every time it writes to the binlog.

This option has no effect without the -b option.

-F

Never call fsync(2) function. This is like -f with a <ms> value of infinity.

This option has no effect without the -b option.

-h

Show the command line help and summary of options.

-l <addr>

Listen on address <addr> (default is 0.0.0.0)

-p <port>

Listen on TCP port <port> (default is 11300).

-s <bytes>

The maximum size in bytes of each binlog file.

This option has no effect without the -b option.

-u <user>

Become the user <user> and its primary group.

-z <bytes>

The maximum size in bytes of a job.
