pueue
A command-line task management tool for sequential and parallel execution of long-running shell commands.
What is pueue?
Pueue is a command-line task management tool that processes a queue of shell commands, enabling sequential and parallel execution of long-running tasks. It runs as a background daemon, allowing users to manage tasks from any terminal and ensuring continuous processing even without active sessions. It focuses on human-centric task management with features like task scheduling, groups, and persistence.
Developers and system administrators who need to manage long-running shell commands, such as data processing pipelines, build systems, or batch jobs, and want a persistent, background queue that survives terminal sessions. It's suited for single users on Linux, macOS, or Windows.
Developers choose Pueue for its simplicity, persistence, and background execution, which allows tasks to run independently of terminal sessions. Unlike heavy-duty schedulers, it prioritizes human interaction with features like easy output inspection, task groups, and cross-platform support without complex setup.
