API Reference
docket
docket - A distributed background task system for Python functions.
docket focuses on scheduling future work as seamlessly and efficiently as immediate work.
Agenda
A collection of tasks to be scheduled together on a Docket.
The Agenda allows you to build up a collection of tasks with their arguments, then schedule them all at once using various timing strategies like scattering.
Example
agenda = Agenda() agenda.add(process_item)(item1) agenda.add(process_item)(item2) agenda.add(send_email)(email) await agenda.scatter(docket, over=timedelta(minutes=50))

ConcurrencyLimit
Bases: Dependency
Configures concurrency limits for a task based on specific argument values.
This allows fine-grained control over task execution by limiting concurrent tasks based on the value of specific arguments.
Example:
async def process_customer(
customer_id: int,
concurrency: ConcurrencyLimit = ConcurrencyLimit("customer_id", max_concurrent=1)
) -> None:
# Only one task per customer_id will run at a time
...
async def backup_db(
db_name: str,
concurrency: ConcurrencyLimit = ConcurrencyLimit("db_name", max_concurrent=3)
) -> None:
# Only 3 backup tasks per database name will run at a time
...

Docket
A Docket represents a collection of tasks that may be scheduled for later execution. With a Docket, you can add, replace, and cancel tasks. Example:
@task
async def my_task(greeting: str, recipient: str) -> None:
print(f"{greeting}, {recipient}!")
async with Docket() as docket:
docket.add(my_task)("Hello", recipient="world")

cancel(key)
async
Cancel a previously scheduled task on the Docket.
If the task is scheduled (in the queue or stream), it will be removed. If the task is currently running, a cancellation signal will be sent to the worker, which will attempt to cancel the asyncio task. This is best-effort: if the task completes before the signal is processed, the cancellation will have no effect.
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
key
|
str
|
The key of the task to cancel. |
required |
Source code in src/docket/docket.py
clear()
async
Clear all queued and scheduled tasks from the docket.
This removes all tasks from the stream (immediate tasks) and queue (scheduled tasks), along with their associated parked data. Running tasks are not affected.
Returns:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
int
|
The total number of tasks that were cleared. |

The task key. |
required |
Returns:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
Execution | None
|
The Execution if found, None if the key doesn't exist. |
Example
Claim check pattern: schedule a task, save the key,
then retrieve the execution later to check status or get results
execution = await docket.add(my_task, key="important-task")(args) task_key = execution.key
Later, retrieve the execution by key
execution = await docket.get_execution(task_key) if execution: await execution.get_result()

schedule(replace=False, reschedule_message=None)
async
Schedule this task atomically in Redis.
This performs an atomic operation that: - Adds the task to the stream (immediate) or queue (future) - Writes the execution state record - Tracks metadata for later cancellation
Usage patterns: - Normal add: schedule(replace=False) - Replace existing: schedule(replace=True) - Reschedule from stream: schedule(reschedule_message=message_id) This atomically acknowledges and deletes the stream message, then reschedules the task to the queue. Prevents both task loss and duplicate execution when rescheduling tasks (e.g., due to concurrency limits).
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
replace
|
bool
|
If True, replaces any existing task with the same key. If False, raises an error if the task already exists. |
False
|
reschedule_message
|
RedisMessageID | None
|
If provided, atomically acknowledges and deletes this stream message ID before rescheduling the task to the queue. Used when a task needs to be rescheduled from an active stream message. |
None

Perpetual
Bases: Dependency
Declare a task that should be run perpetually. Perpetual tasks are automatically
rescheduled for the future after they finish (whether they succeed or fail). A
perpetual task can be scheduled at worker startup with the automatic=True.
Example:
Source code in src/docket/dependencies.py
__init__(every=timedelta(0), automatic=False)
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
every
|
timedelta
|
The target interval between task executions. |
timedelta(0)
|
automatic
|
bool
|
If set, this task will be automatically scheduled during worker startup and continually through the worker's lifespan. This ensures that the task will always be scheduled despite crashes and other adverse conditions. Automatic tasks must not require any arguments. |
False
|
Source code in src/docket/dependencies.py
Progress
Bases: Dependency
A dependency to report progress updates for the currently executing task.
Tasks can use this to report their current progress (current/total values) and status messages to external observers.
Example:
@task
async def process_records(records: list, progress: Progress = Progress()) -> None:
await progress.set_total(len(records))
for i, record in enumerate(records):
await process(record)
await progress.increment()
await progress.set_message(f"Processed {record.id}")
Source code in src/docket/dependencies.py
current
property
Current progress value.
message
property
User-provided status message.
total
property
Total/target value for progress tracking.
increment(amount=1)
async
Atomically increment the current progress value.
set_message(message)
async
Update the progress status message.
set_total(total)
async
Set the total/target value for progress tracking.
Retry
Bases: Dependency
Configures linear retries for a task. You can specify the total number of
attempts (or None to retry indefinitely), and the delay between attempts.
Example:
Source code in src/docket/dependencies.py
__init__(attempts=1, delay=timedelta(0))
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
attempts
|
int | None
|
The total number of attempts to make. If |
1
|
delay
|
timedelta
|
The delay between attempts. |
timedelta(0)

StrikeList
A strike list that manages conditions for blocking task execution.
When a URL is provided, the strike list will connect to Redis and monitor a stream for strike/restore instructions. External processes (like Docket) can issue strikes, and all StrikeList instances listening to the same stream will receive and apply those updates.
Example using context manager with Redis
async with StrikeList(url="redis://localhost:6379/0", name="my-docket") as strikes: # External process issues: await docket.strike("my_task", "customer_id", "==", "blocked")
if strikes.is_stricken({"customer_id": "blocked"}):
print("Customer is blocked")
Example with Docket (managed internally): async with Docket(name="my-docket", url="redis://localhost:6379/0") as docket: # Docket manages its own StrikeList internally await docket.strike(None, "customer_id", "==", "blocked")
Example using explicit connect/close: strikes = StrikeList(url="redis://localhost:6379/0", name="my-docket") await strikes.connect() try: if strikes.is_stricken({"customer_id": "blocked"}): print("Customer is blocked") finally: await strikes.close()
Example without Redis (local-only): strikes = StrikeList() # No URL = no Redis connection strikes.update(Strike(None, "customer_id", Operator.EQUAL, "blocked")) if strikes.is_stricken({"customer_id": "blocked"}): print("Customer is blocked")

async
classmethod
Run a worker as the main entry point (CLI).
This method installs signal handlers for graceful shutdown since it assumes ownership of the event loop. When embedding Docket in another framework (e.g., FastAPI with uvicorn), use Worker.run_forever() or Worker.run_until_finished() directly - those methods do not install signal handlers and rely on the framework to handle shutdown signals.

run_at_most(iterations_by_key)
async
Run the worker until there are no more tasks to process, but limit specified task keys to a maximum number of iterations.
This is particularly useful for testing self-perpetuating tasks that would otherwise run indefinitely.
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
iterations_by_key
|
Mapping[str, int]
|
Maps task keys to their maximum allowed executions |

Depends(dependency)
Include a user-defined function as a dependency. Dependencies may be: - Synchronous functions returning a value - Asynchronous functions returning a value (awaitable) - Synchronous context managers (using @contextmanager) - Asynchronous context managers (using @asynccontextmanager)
If a dependency returns a context manager, it will be entered and exited around the task, giving an opportunity to control the lifetime of a resource.
Important: Synchronous dependencies should NOT include blocking I/O operations (file access, network calls, database queries, etc.). Use async dependencies for any I/O. Sync dependencies are best for: - Pure computations - In-memory data structure access - Configuration lookups from memory - Non-blocking transformations
Examples:
# Sync dependency - pure computation, no I/O
def get_config() -> dict:
# Access in-memory config, no I/O
return {"api_url": "https://api.example.com", "timeout": 30}
# Sync dependency - compute value from arguments
def build_query_params(
user_id: int = TaskArgument(),
config: dict = Depends(get_config)
) -> dict:
# Pure computation, no I/O
return {"user_id": user_id, "timeout": config["timeout"]}
# Async dependency - I/O operations
async def get_user(user_id: int = TaskArgument()) -> User:
# Network I/O - must be async
return await fetch_user_from_api(user_id)
# Async context manager - I/O resource management
from contextlib import asynccontextmanager
@asynccontextmanager
async def get_db_connection():
# I/O operations - must be async
conn = await db.connect()
try:
yield conn
finally:
await conn.close()
@task
async def my_task(
params: dict = Depends(build_query_params),
user: User = Depends(get_user),
db: Connection = Depends(get_db_connection),
) -> None:
await db.execute("UPDATE users SET ...", params)
Source code in src/docket/dependencies.py
TaskArgument(parameter=None, optional=False)
A dependency to access a argument of the currently executing task. This is often useful in dependency functions so they can access the arguments of the task they are injected into.
Example:
async def customer_name(customer_id: int = TaskArgument()) -> str:
...look up the customer's name by ID...
return "John Doe"
@task
async def greet_customer(customer_id: int, name: str = Depends(customer_name)) -> None:
print(f"Hello, {name}!")
Source code in src/docket/dependencies.py
TaskKey()
A dependency to access the key of the currently executing task.
Example:
Source code in src/docket/dependencies.py
TaskLogger()
A dependency to access a logger for the currently executing task. The logger will automatically inject contextual information such as the worker and docket name, the task key, and the current execution attempt number.
Example:
@task
async def my_task(logger: "LoggerAdapter[Logger]" = TaskLogger()) -> None:
logger.info("Hello, world!")
