  }
)

consumer.start()

Topic

The term topic used here is actually the key of stream in Redis, multiple topics means multiple streams.

Producer

Producer is simple and straightforward, the maxLen options is used for a capped stream, that means the messages will not exceed the maxLen(it's not accurate, since  using almost exact trimming (the ~ argument)).

Consumer

Consumers use pull strategy for fetching new messages, for the messages that are not processed successfully will be retried after a specific time.

Options:

• timeout: message will be redelivered if timeout is reached

• batchSize: how many messages will be fetched in one time for a consumer

• maxDeliverTimes: the message will be abandon if the max deliver times reached

Connection

Each producer and consumer will share the same Redis connection by default, if you want the producer or consumer to use an individual connection, just set shareConnection to false, then a new connection will created for it.
