django-queuebie
A simple and synchronous message queue for commands and events for Django.
PyPI • GitHub • Full documentation
Creator & Maintainer: Ambient Digital
Features
Split up your business logic in commands and events
Commands are imperatives telling your system what to do, events reflect that something has happened
Register light-weight functions via a decorator to listen to your commands and events
Message handlers receive the context of the message (command or event), providing an explicit API
No magic, no side effects since the queue works synchronously

# Example command
@dataclasses.dataclass(kw_only=True)
class BuyProduct(Command):
product_id: int
customer_id: int
price: float
currency: str
# Example event
@dataclasses.dataclass(kw_only=True)
class ProductBought(Event):
product_id: int
customer_id: int
# Example handler
@message_registry.register_command(BuyProduct)
def handle_buy_product(context: BuyProduct) -> Event:
# Here lives your business logic
return ProductBought(
product_id=context.product_id,
customer_id=context.customer_id,
)
# Start queue and process messages
handle_message(
BuyProduct(
product_id=product.id,
customer_id=customer.id,
price=12.99,
currency="EUR",
)
)

Releasing a new version
Releases are fully automated. Push a version tag and the pipeline will build, sign with Sigstore, publish to PyPI via Trusted Publishing, and create a GitHub Release — no API tokens needed.
git tag v<version> # e.g. git tag v1.2.3
git push origin v<version>
Tags must start with v. Tags without the prefix won’t trigger the pipeline.
First-time setup
Before the pipeline can run for the first time, an admin must:
**Create GitHub Environment
pypi**Go to Settings → Environments → New environment, name it exactly
pypiUnder Deployment branches and tags, add a tag rule with pattern
v*Optionally add required reviewers for a manual approval gate
Configure PyPI Trusted Publisher
Go to PyPI → Project settings → Publishing → Add a new publisher
Fill in: Owner
ambient-innovation, Repositorydjango-queuebie, Workflowrelease.yml, Environmentpypi
Publish to ReadTheDocs.io
Fetch the latest changes in GitHub mirror and push them
Trigger new build at ReadTheDocs.io (follow instructions in admin panel at RTD) if the GitHub webhook is not yet set up.
Maintenance
Please note that this package supports the ambient-package-update.
So you don’t have to worry about the maintenance of this package. This updater is rendering all important
configuration and setup files. It works similar to well-known updaters like pyupgrade or django-upgrade.
To run an update, refer to the documentation page of the “ambient-package-update”.
