Each collection type exposes a simple push/pop API and is designed for speed. The library has no external dependencies and supports modern Python versions from 3.10 onward.\n\nIt is typically used in scenarios where you need a durable work queue that survives process restarts, or where you want to manage items with priority or fair distribution across multiple sources. The disk-based variants allow you to queue large numbers of items without keeping them all in RAM, making it useful for batch processing, task scheduling, and buffering workloads.","worth_installing":"Yes. Queuelib is actively maintained, has no dependencies, supports current Python versions, carries no known vulnerabilities, and offers a straightforward solution for persistent and in-memory queuing. Install it if you need disk-backed queues or priority/round-robin scheduling; skip it if you require thread-safety or distributed queue semantics."},"id":"queuelib","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/queuelib","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/queuelib.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/queuelib/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-01-29","license_spdx":"BSD-3-Clause","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"queuelib","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Collection of persistent (disk-based) and non-persistent (memory-based) queues"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":3117427,"position":2746,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.9.0"}
