Launch of Inngest DevServer
-
Inngest introduced the Inngest DevServer, a platform to simplify writing asynchronous application logic with an event-driven queue supporting any language.
-
The DevServer runs a local, in-memory copy of Inngest, enabling easy setup of queuing infrastructure and the execution of background jobs without additional configurations.
-
It consists of an API for event publishing, automatic function and step function loading based on event triggers, function execution with event payload, and immediate logging of input and output.
-
The codebase for the DevServer is open source on Github, encouraging developer participation and allowing for future expansions and feature additions.
-
Developers can get started with the Inngest CLI and initiate functions by sending events to a provided local server endpoint, making development and testing seamless.
