MongoDB support for Hangfire library. By using this library you can store all jobs information in MongoDB.
To install Hangfire MongoDB Storage, run the following command in the Nuget Package Manager Console:
PM> Install-Package Hangfire.Mongo
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
var mongoUrlBuilder = new MongoUrlBuilder("mongodb://localhost/jobs");
var mongoClient = new MongoClient(mongoUrlBuilder.ToMongoUrl());
// Add Hangfire services. Hangfire.AspNetCore nuget required
services.AddHangfire(configuration => configuration
.SetDataCompatibilityLevel(CompatibilityLevel.Version_170)
.UseSimpleAssemblyNameTypeSerializer()
.UseRecommendedSerializerSettings()
.UseMongoStorage(mongoClient, mongoUrlBuilder.DatabaseName, new MongoStorageOptions
{
MigrationOptions = new MongoMigrationOptions
{
MigrationStrategy = new MigrateMongoMigrationStrategy(),
BackupStrategy = new CollectionMongoBackupStrategy()
},
Prefix = "hangfire.mongo",
CheckConnection = true
})
);
// Add the processing server as IHostedService
services.AddHangfireServer(serverOptions =>
{
serverOptions.ServerName = "Hangfire.Mongo server 1";
});
// Add framework services.
}var options = new MongoStorageOptions
{
MigrationOptions = new MongoMigrationOptions
{
MigrationStrategy = new DropMongoMigrationStrategy(),
BackupStrategy = new NoneMongoBackupStrategy()
}
};
GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.UseMongoStorage("mongodb://localhost/jobs", options);
app.UseHangfireServer();
app.UseHangfireDashboard();var options = new MongoStorageOptions
{
MigrationOptions = new MongoMigrationOptions
{
MigrationStrategy = new DropMongoMigrationStrategy(),
BackupStrategy = new NoneMongoBackupStrategy()
}
};
var mongoStorage = new MongoStorage(
MongoClientSettings.FromConnectionString("mongodb://localhost"),
"jobs", // database name
options);
using(new BackgroundJobServer(mongoStorage))
{
...
}To use custom prefix for collections names specify it on Hangfire setup:
public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
{
GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.UseMongoStorage("mongodb://localhost/ApplicationDatabase",
new MongoStorageOptions { Prefix = "custom" } );
app.UseHangfireServer();
app.UseHangfireDashboard();
}Hangfire.Mongo will ignore any naming conventions configured by your application. E.g. if your application use camel casing like this:
var camelCaseConventionPack = new ConventionPack { new CamelCaseElementNameConvention() };
ConventionRegistry.Register("CamelCase", camelCaseConventionPack, type => true);it will be ignored by Hangfire.Mongo and Pascal Case will be used instead. Of cause only for Hangfire specific collections.
We sometimes introduce breaking changes in the schema. For this reason we have introduced migration. Three migration strategies exists.
-
Throw
This is the default migration strategy. It will throw an InvalidOperationException never letting you get up and running if there is a schema version mismatch. So it forces you to decide what migration strategy is best for you and at the same time keeps your data safe.
-
Drop
This will simply just drop your existing Hangfire.Mongo database and update the schema version. No fuzz and ready to start from scratch. It is the perfect strategy if you e.g. enque all your jobs at startup.
-
Migrate
This will migrate your database from one schema version to the next until the required schema version is reached. Chances are that not all data can be migrated, why some loss of data might occur. Please use with caution and thougoughly test before deploying to production. We are not responsible for data loss.
NOTE: Only forward migration is supported. If you need to revert to a previous schema version, you need to manually drop or restore the previous database.
public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
{
var migrationOptions = new MongoMigrationOptions
{
MigrationStrategy = new MigrateMongoMigrationStrategy(),
BackupStrategy = new CollectionMongoBackupStrategy()
};
var storageOptions = new MongoStorageOptions
{
// ...
MigrationOptions = migrationOptions
};
GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.UseMongoStorage("<connection string with database name>", storageOptions);
app.UseHangfireServer();
app.UseHangfireDashboard();
}By default no backup is made before attempting to migrate. You can backup Hangfire collections by "cloning" each collection to the same database. Alternatively you can just write your own, by inheriting MongoBackupStrategy and use that implementation.
NOTE: This software is made by humans in our sparetime - we do our best but will not be held responsible for any data loss.
