Using Bull queue how to retry failed jobs with higher priority?

Question

Looking for a way to have bull retry failed jobs with a higher priority. More specifically, I would like failed jobs to be picked up before any non-failed job.

It's fairly easy to set stuff like 'number of retries', but nothing else regarding the retry policy afaik.

You can specify the priority like this :

let newJob = await myQueue.add('queue-name', job.data, { ...{ priority: 1 }, ...job.opts });
