About Trigger.dev
Trigger.dev is an open source platform and SDK which allows you to create long-running background jobs with no timeouts. Write normal async code, deploy, and never hit a timeout.
Features:
- JavaScript and TypeScript SDK
- Write reliable code by default
- No infrastructure to manage
- Works with your existing tech stack
In your codebase
Create tasks where they belong: in your codebase. Version control, localhost, test and review like you're already used to.
import { task } from "@trigger.dev/sdk/v3";
//1. You need to export each task
export const helloWorld = task({
//2. Use a unique id for each task
id: "hello-world",
//3. The run function is the main function of the task
run: async (payload: { message: string }) => {
//4. You can write code that runs for a long time here, there are no timeouts
console.log(payload.message);
},
});Deployment
Use our SDK to write tasks in your codebase. There's no infrastructure to manage, your tasks automatically scale and connect to our cloud. Or you can always self-host.
Environments
We support Development, Staging, and Production environments, allowing you to test your tasks before deploying them to production.
Full visibility of every job run
View every task in every run so you can tell exactly what happened. We provide a full trace view of every task run so you can see what happened at every step.
