Sqs Consumer
Build Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS) based applications without the boilerplate
Overview:
The sqs-consumer package allows users to build SQS-based applications without the need for boilerplate code. With this package, users can define an async function that handles the processing of SQS messages.
Features:
- Easy installation: Simply enter a command into the terminal to install the package.
- Support for AWS SDK v3: Assumes usage of AWS SDK v3, with support for v2 through the installation of v5.8.0.
- Continuous polling: The package continuously polls the queue for messages using long polling.
- Error handling: Throwing an error or returning a rejected promise from the handler function leaves the message on the queue.
- Parallel processing: Use the batchSize option to process messages in parallel instead of one at a time.
- Message acknowledgment: Messages can be acknowledged individually or in batches to control deletion from the queue.
- Flexible credentials: The package supports the use of AWS credentials specified as environment variables or manually configured.
- Eslint
ESLint is a linter for JavaScript that analyzes code to detect and report on potential problems and errors, as well as enforce consistent code style and best practices, helping developers to write cleaner, more maintainable code.
- Typescript
TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, providing optional static typing, classes, interfaces, and other features that help developers write more maintainable and scalable code. TypeScript's static typing system can catch errors at compile-time, making it easier to build and maintain large applications.
