Package grq implements persistent, thread and cross process safe task queue, that uses redis as backend. It should be used, when RabbitMQ is too complicated, and MQTT is not enough (because it cannot cache messages), and BeanStalkd is classic from 21 september of 2007 year, that is hard to find in many linux distros.
GRQ means Golang Redis Queue.

}Protocol is very simple, it can be used by your favourite redis client, including official redis-cli.
Publishing task to queue taskQueue1 with payload 1419719 can be performed by redis command lpush:
$ redis-cli lpush taskQueue1 1419719
If we want task to be executed first, it can be added to queue via rpush:
$ redis-cli rpush taskQueue1 1419719
If we want to notify consumers that task is published, and we don't want to wait, when consumers internal timers triggers, we can send notification that there is event in queue via publish redis command.
$ redis-cli publish taskQueue1 anythingAsPayloadBecauseItIsIgnored
If we want to consume an event from a queue, we can use lpop:
$ redis-cli lpop taskQueue1
and payload of 1419719 will be returned.
If we want to receive notification, when there are new messages in the queue, we can subscribe to this kind of messages easily:
$ redis-cli SUBSCRIBE "redisQueue/testHeartBeat"
