You can run the async code by importing Client from upstash_qstash.asyncio and awaiting the methods.

Publish to a URL with a 3 second delay and headers/body

from upstash_qstash import Client



client = Client("<QSTASH_TOKEN>")

res = client.publish_json({

  "url": "https://my-api...",

  "body": { "hello": "world" },

  "headers": { "test-header": "test-value" },

  "delay": 3

})



print(res["messageId"])

Publish to a topic with a 3 second delay and headers/body

You can make a topic on the QStash console or using the topics API

from upstash_qstash import Client



client = Client("<QSTASH_TOKEN>")

res = client.publish_json({

  "topic": "mytopic",

  "body": { "hello": "world" },

  "headers": { "test-header": "test-value" },

  "delay": 3

})



# When publishing to a topic, the response is an array of messages for each URL in the topic

print(res[0]["messageId"])

Publish a method with a callback URL

Callbacks are useful for long running functions. Here, QStash will return the response of the publish request to the callback URL.

We also change the method to GET in this use case so QStash will make a GET request to the url. The default is POST.

from upstash_qstash import Client



client = Client("<QSTASH_TOKEN>")

client.publish_json({

  "url": "https://my-api...",

  "body": { "hello": "world" },

  "callback": "https://my-callback...",

  "failure_callback": "https://my-failure-callback...",

  "method": "GET"

})

Configure the number of retries

The max number of retries is based on your QStash plan

from upstash_qstash import Client



client = Client("<QSTASH_TOKEN>")

client.publish_json({

  "url": "https://my-api...",

  "body": { "hello": "world" },

  "retries": 1

})

Publish HTML content instead of JSON

from upstash_qstash import Client



client = Client("<QSTASH_TOKEN>")

client.publish({

  "url": "https://my-api...",

  "body": "<html><body><h1>Hello World</h1></body></html>",

  "headers": {

    "Content-Type": "text/html"

  }

})

Publish a message with content-based-deduplication

from upstash_qstash import Client



client = Client("<QSTASH_TOKEN>")

client.publish_json({

  "url": "https://my-api...",

  "body": { "hello": "world" },

  "content_based_deduplication": True

})
