I am trying to add logic to re-use redis connections with bullMQ using this section of the bullMQ docs.

I am using the most recent (1.80.6) BullMQ npm version.

From the docs, the expectation is to define the createClient method, which is a property of QueueOptions.

However, doing so raises an error TS2559.

Type '{ createClient: (type: string, redisOpts: any); }' has no properties in common with type 'QueueOptions'.

Was the createClient logic deprecated?if Yes, are there alternatives?

If not, any pointers to what am doing wrong?

You can pass an IORedis instance in as the connection.

import IORedis from 'ioredis';
const connection = new IORedis('redis://someredisurl:6379');
const myQueue = new Queue('queue_name', { connection });

  • will this then use the connection passed in or create a new connection from it. by reading the documentation i thought it was going to create new connection from it. https://docs.bullmq.io/guide/connections – user566245 Jun 11 '23 at 16:10
