[Bug]: Why on server is not running when i use bullmq?

[xts-bit]

As i start my server it logs Working, and Job completed why job running as i start the server, it should wait for 5 seconds and then run that function...

const queue = new Queue('myQueue', {
  connection: {
    host: 'host',
    port: 11525,
    password: 'pass'
  }
});

async function hitApi() {
  console.log("Working")
}

queue.add('myJob', { delay: 5000 });

const worker = new Worker('myQueue', async (job) => {
  await hitApi();
}, {
   connection: {
    host: 'host',
    port: 11525,
    password: 'pass'
  }
});

worker.on('completed', (job) => {
  console.log(`Job completed`);
});

worker.on('failed', (job, err) => {
  console.error(`Job failed for URL`);
});

Hi @xts-bit, you may need to read our docs https://docs.bullmq.io/readme-1, you must have a worker instance

@roggervalf Can you please give a code example to run a function after 10 seconds? even it server is restarted many timeS?

What is the issue?

@manast As i start my server it logs Working, and Job completed why job running as i start the server, it should wait for 5 seconds and then run that function...

But the expected behavior should be it runs that function after 5 seconds.

Ok, you are not calling Queue.add with its proper arguments. Please use Typescript or some other tool to help you avoid this kind of issues in the future:

queue.add("myJob", { foo, "bar" }, { delay: 5000 });

@manast Yes this works, But will my code will work when the server is restarted? like as i push new code to the server it restarts the server so will this cause any problem? in my case, the delay is around 1 day.
