Show HN: Use SQLite as a Message Queue

4 points

5 years ago

Hi! I'm the author of litements[0], a set of data structures (and more coming later) built on top of SQLite. The reason I'm building it is that I think many apps can run perfectly on a single server using a few SQLite databases.

The queue[1] is like a message queue, similar to the standard Python queue. Right now everything is built with Python, but the idea behind all the litements libraries is having some persistent structures that can be shared between multiple processes. All talking to SQLite.

I would love some feedback on it to see how it could be useful to others. I want to keep everything as simple and reliable as possible.
