No no. See here: https://developers.cloudflare.com/queues/configuration/pull-consumers/

Cloudflare Docs

Pull consumers | Cloudflare Queues

A pull-based consumer allows you to pull from a queue over HTTP from any environment and/or programming language outside of Cloudflare Workers. A pull-based consumer can be useful when your message consumption rate is limited by upstream infrastructure or long-running tasks.

Dead letter queues behave just like normal queues. You could setup a consumer, just like you would with a normal queue. It doesn't necessarily need to be a pull consumer; you could use a worker too.

Hi everyone! I am starting looking into using queues but have one question...can I configure a worker script as a queue consumer through terraform? I havent found the setup yet..still looking but if anyone here knows or can point me to the info...

clearwater4227•8/25/24, 9:58 PM

it looks like I can configure the queue reference on a worker to send a message but I need to configure the consumer through terraform also.

C

clearwater4227•8/25/24, 10:04 PM

or is it just a worker with the queue() function? hmm...Ill try it

Is there a way to force a queue to increase concurrency, or to set a minimum concurrency?

I'm seeing the following behaviour now:

I have a queue where only once every 1-5 minutes, a message is queued. A message takes about 30 seconds wall time to be processed. Maximum consumer concurrency is on default.

But, when a message comes in that all of a sudden takes 30 minutes to process, the whole queue will be stuck until that one message is processed (that's the behaviour I'm observing at least). This behaviour is in line with the docs, since Queues will only check after processing a batch of messages if the concurrent consumers should be adjusted.

Very annoying behaviour of course - because of a slow message, I suddenly have messages waiting for 30 minutes in the queue. Only after the message is processed, the concurrency will be updated and all waiting messages will be handled. Being able to set a minimum concurrency would be a big help here

Julio Ribeiro•8/27/24, 1:40 PM

Hey team, whats up?

I have a use case for queues and want to know if my logic is correct:
- I have a producer that posts around 500 messages at once on the queue, using batches of 25 messages
- All batches are delayed incrementally until the last batch on increments of 30 seconds each batch (first batch for 0 seconds, the second for 30 seconds, the third for 60 seconds...)
I was doing this process previously with a D1 column for the queue and a scheduled workers that runs each minute, but wanted to try it on using queues
The consumer should receive the batches following the delays, right?
The problem I'm facing: All the batches get processed at once, not obeying the delay sent while creating the batches.
I need this delay on the batches due to Slack API limitation that I use to process these messages, avoiding receiving 429s.
Is there any problem on the CF side causing this problem, or the queue will process all messages at once even with the delays?

Here are some snippets so you can take a look at my code:

I think I might be seeing some messages dropped from my queue? Some final data in our db is missing and I traced it back to this.

Cloudflare dashboard shows 321 messages successfully delivered
Logpush logs only show 313 events from that queue

All of these messages were sent in the same few seconds/min. What happened to the other 8 messages?

Hi, new to queues. I'm doing this:

await env.queue.send(
                data,
                { delaySeconds: 42300, contentType: "json" }
            ).then(() => console.log("done"));

await env.queue.send(
                data,
                { delaySeconds: 42300, contentType: "json" }
            ).then(() => console.log("done"));

await env.queue.send(
                data,
                { delaySeconds: 42300, contentType: "json" }
            ).then(() => console.log("done"));

await env.queue.send(
                data,
                { delaySeconds: 42300, contentType: "json" }
            ).then(() => console.log("done"));

However, whenever I view on the dashboard and list messages, nothing shows, however "done" shows in the live logs. Am I doing something wrong? Smaller times work though.

Hi team, I need to use event notifications with R2 and queues when new objects are created. I have a job written in C#/.NET which is supposed to read messages from this queue. My question is: do you have a .NET SDK that I can use for receiving/acknowledging messages from queues? For example, I think R2 is compatible with AWS S3 SDK and I can use AmazonS3Client with R2, is that the case with queues? Can I use AmazonSqsClient with Cloudflare queues? Or what other options do I have?

You can have the producer and the consumer in the same worker or in separate ones. It really depends on how you want to architect your application. However, for now, when building locally, we recommend having them in the same worker.

Hi! Has anyone seen CPU Execution timeout on queue consumer event? In the worker limits docs they say the limit is 15 minutes of CPU time. But I always get timeout after 32,000ms (according to the worker cpu time dashboard). I could work around that, but I'd like to know if the docs are wrong or if it's a bug on my or CF side.

Hi! I deleted a bunch of R2 bucket notifications & buckets but I can not delete the queue that was referenced. I always receive the error "cannot delete queue bucketav-rhyglnin that serves as a target for event notifications". I have no buckets left so this is likely not the case. Are there any reqasons for that? Is there something happening in the background before I can delete the queue? If I look at the queue in the dashboard it says "This queue does not have a consumer". Clicking the delete button in the UI is broken as well. I can see the error in the browser logs but not the UI.
