v3.1.0

Version 3.1.0 adds

• support for storing jobs in MySQL 8, thanks @jeanparpaillon !
• persisting job params as an Elixir/Erlang term, thanks @lukyanov !

You can insert any arbitrary Elixir/Erlang term into the queue:

{"SendEmail", "jonas@gmail.com", "Welcome!"}
|> MyApp.JobQueue.new()
|> MyApp.Repo.insert()

You should use the option :params_type when defining your queue module:

defmodule MyJobQueue do
  use EctoJob.JobQueue, table_name: "jobs", params_type: :binary
  # ...
end

Possible values of the option are: :map (default) and :binary (for storing Elixir/Erlang terms).

You should use the same option when setting up the migration:

@ecto_job_version 3

def up do
  EctoJob.Migrations.Install.up()
  EctoJob.Migrations.up("jobs", version: @ecto_job_version, params_type: :binary)
end
