      },
      queues: [
        {
          name: 'emails',
          // Can provide either inline processor function
          processor: async (job) => {
            console.log(`Processing email job: ${job.id}`);
            // Send email logic
            return { sent: true };
          },
          concurrency: 5,
        },
        {
          name: 'reports',
          // Or path to processor file (recommended for larger projects)
          processorPath: './processors/report-processor.js',
          concurrency: 2,
        },
      ],
    })
  )
  .get('/status', ({ bull }) => {
    // Get access to bull instance
    return { status: 'running' };
  })
  .post('/send-email', async ({ bull, body }) => {
    // Add job to queue
    const job = await bull.getQueue('emails').add(body);
    return { jobId: job.id };
  })
  .post('/schedule-report', async ({ bull, body }) => {
    // Add recurring job
    const job = await bull.getQueue('reports').addCron(
      'daily-report',
      body,
      '0 0 * * *' // Run at midnight every day
    );
    return { jobId: job.id };
  })
  .listen(3000);

console.log(`🦊 Server running at ${app.server?.hostname}:${app.server?.port}`);
