DefaultLockLifetime

pulse.defaultLockLifetime(ms)

The defaultLockLifetime method sets the default duration (in milliseconds) that a job can remain locked during processing before it is automatically released. This setting helps manage job recovery and ensures that jobs do not remain locked indefinitely if an error occurs or if the job processing is not completed as expected.

Example Usage

const pulse = new Pulse();

// Set the default lock lifetime to 5 minutes (300000 ms)
pulse.defaultLockLifetime(300000);

//or new Pulse({ defaultLockLifetime: 300000 });

Parameters

• ms (number): The duration in milliseconds for how long jobs should be locked by default.

  • default: 600,000ms

Returns

• Pulse: Returns the instance of the Pulse class, allowing for method chaining.
