How to pass all queue names to createBullBoard method on startup and make the board pick all queues created by BullMQ?

[sidd-kulk]

In the startup code, it shows how pass queue names to createBullBoard method. But my queues are dynamic in nature and created at runtime. Their names are also dynamic. How to fetch them all without explicitly passing their names?

E.g.

createBullBoard({
  queues: ['*'],
  serverAdapter: serverAdapter,
});

This should pick up all BullMQ queues from Redis.
Is it possible?

Bull-board doesn't support that, actually it doesn't access Redis at all.
You can fetch all queue names from ever you want (Redis / DB) and add them dynamically to the Board.

createBullBoard method returns you an object with setQueues, replaceQueues, addQueue, removeQueue related to the queues.

Interesting, without redis access, how does it fetch the stats and jobs?

Using libs themselves bullmq / bull...

Thanks. Any recommendation on how I can fetch all the queues direclty from Redis to add to the Bull Board?

You can poke around, these libs are adding prefix to the keys they push, you can query by it...
