• MAJOR: Node 12 is EOL. Node 14 is now the minimum supported version.
• MINOR: Added db option to fetch(), send() and insert() to use an existing connection. The primary use case is for pg-boss to participate in a database transaction. PR from @klesgidis
• MINOR: Safe JSON serialization added instead of passing down to the pg driver. Handles issues such as cyclical refs when saving job results.

• Singleton queues can now use wildcards to allow sub-groups - PR #329 from @adamhamlin
• Minor code changes to timekeeper to make it more clear how scheduling works - Issue #327
• Pruned migration store to only look back 2 major releases. If this causes an issue upgrading from a really old version of pg-boss, first upgrade to an older version such as v6, then upgrade to v7.

• Added notifyWorker(id) to bypass the job polling interval when needed. PR from @ilijaNL

• Typescript type and dosc updated via PR from @chougron

• Added resume(). PR from @lionls

• Allows all functions to continue to work after an instance has been stopped except for work() and onComplete(). Previously, if a job was running that needed to create a new job, it would fail during a graceful stop.

• Updated TypeScript type for monitor-states event payload via PR from @amc6

• Added Node's EventEmitter as a base class for pg-boss for TypeScript. PR from @jhermsmeier

• Typescript types update - PR from @bwalding

Publish/Subscribe 🎉

The primary theme of v7 is changing the semantics of the API to introduce a publish/subscribe feature that more closely aligns with other queue & messaging products that use a fan-out relationship between an event and subscription. Previously, pg-boss used publish() for "create a new job" and subscribe() for "poll a queue on an interval and execute a function".

• MAJOR: publish() renamed to send()
• MAJOR: subscribe() renamed to work()
• MAJOR: New pub/sub functions added for fan-out relationships between events and queues.
  • subscribe() will register a named event to a queue
  • publish() will add a job to each subscribed queue per event
  • Thanks to @tcoats for the PR to add this!
• teamRefill option added to work() when using teamSize to prevent longer-running jobs from delaying job processing in the worker.
  • Thanks to @chrisjensen for the PR to add this!

• Fixed onError to emit full error message and stack @phips28 #278
• Migrated static mutex for advisory locks to be database + schema derived to prevent multi-tenant hosting from blocking each other #281

• Fixed stray rejection timer in subscribe() on error

• Added insert() api for bulk loading an array of jobs in a single request as an alternative to publish()
• Removed exclusion of state completion jobs from monitor-states event

• Error object serialization fix for custom properties. PR from @nicoburns #261

• Updated queue maintenance monitoring to abort stalled active jobs
