redis 'bull' server

1

Hello all,

I want to use fly.io for a node web server that I have. This webserver has routine offline jobs that it must run.

I currently use heroku for this web server.

  1. I use a cron extension on heroku to handle the trigger for these routine jobs.
  2. I use bull as a queue manager for internal operation of the jobs
  3. I use redis for bull to manage its queue

Is there a way to get this kind of setup working with fly? Is there support for redis / cron workflows?

I don’t know about the Redis part but Fly supports cron tasks so I can’t imagine why you wouldn’t be able to do the same as you can do on Heroku.

Yes this works, you can self host redis or use upstash

turns out that fly has built-in support for redis with upstash so its really easy to make a redis server work.
