+# apalis-core
+
+A high-performance, type-safe task processing framework for rust.
+
+`apalis-core` provides the fundamental abstractions and runtime components for building
+scalable background task systems with middleware support, graceful shutdown, and monitoring capabilities.
+
+This is advanced documentation, for guide level documentation is found on the [website](https://apalis.dev).
+
+## Core Concepts
+
+`apalis-core` is built around four primary abstractions that provide a flexible and extensible task processing system:
+
+- **[`Tasks`](#tasks)**: Type-safe task data structures with processing metadata
+- **[`Backends`](#backends)**: Pluggable task storage and streaming implementations
+- **[`Workers`](#workers)**: Task processing engines with lifecycle management
+- **[`Monitor`](#monitor)**: Multi-worker coordination and observability
+
+The framework leverages the `tower` service abstraction to provide a rich middleware
+ecosystem like error handling, timeouts, rate limiting,
+and observability.
+
+
+### Tasks
+
+The task struct provides type-safe components for task data and metadata:
+- [`Args`](crate::task_fn::guide) - The primary structure for the task
+- [`Parts`](crate::task::Parts) - Wrapper type for information for task execution includes context, status, attempts, task_id and metadata
+- [`Context`](crate::backend::Backend#required-associated-types) - contextual information with the task provided by the backend
+- [`Status`](crate::task::status::Status) - Represents the current state of a task
+- [`TaskId`](crate::task::task_id::TaskId) - Unique identifier for task tracking
+- [`Attempt`](crate::task::attempt::Attempt) - Retry tracking and attempt information
+- [`Extensions`](crate::task::data) - Type-safe storage for additional task data
+- [`Metadata`](crate::task::metadata) - metadata associated with the task
+
+#### Example: Using `TaskBuilder`
+
+```rust
+let task: Task<String, ()> = TaskBuilder::new("my-task".to_string())
+    .id("task-123".into())
+    .attempts(3)
+    .timeout(Duration::from_secs(30))
+    .run_in_minutes(10)
+    .build();
+```
+Specific documentation for tasks can be found in the [`task`] and [`task::builder`] modules.
+
+##### Relevant Guides:
+- [**Defining Task arguments**](https://docs.rs/apalis-core/1.0.0-beta.2/apalis_core/task_fn/guide/index.html) - Creating effective task arguments that are scalable and type-safe
+
+### Backends
+
+The [`Backend`](https://docs.rs/apalis-core/1.0.0-beta.2/apalis_core/backend/trait.Backend.html) trait serves as the core abstraction for all task sources.
+It defines task polling mechanisms, streaming interfaces, and middleware integration points.
+
+<details>
+<summary>Associated Types:</summary>
+
+- `Stream` - Defines the task stream type for polling operations
+- `Layer` - Specifies the middleware layer stack for the backend
+- `Codec` - Determines serialization format for task data persistence
+- `Beat` - Heartbeat stream for worker liveness checks
+- `IdType` - Type used for unique task identifiers
+- `Ctx` -   Context associated with tasks
+- `Error` - Error type for backend operations
+
+</details>
+
+#### Inbuilt Implementations
+- [`MemoryStorage`](https://docs.rs/apalis-core/1.0.0-beta.1/apalis_core/backend/memory/struct.MemoryStorage.html) : In-memory storage based on channels
+- [`Pipe`](https://docs.rs/apalis-core/1.0.0-beta.1/apalis_core/backend/pipe/index.html) : Pipe-based backend for a stream-to-backend pipeline
+- [`CustomBackend`](https://docs.rs/apalis-core/1.0.0-beta.1/apalis_core/backend/custom/index.html) : Flexible backend composition allowing custom functions for task management
+
+Backends handle task persistence, distribution, and reliability concerns while providing
+a uniform interface for worker consumption.
+
+### Workers
+
+The [`Worker`](https://docs.rs/apalis-core/1.0.0-beta.1/apalis_core/worker/index.html) is the core runtime component responsible for task polling, execution, and lifecycle management:
+
+#### Worker Lifecycle
+
+- Workers are responsible for task polling, processing, and lifecycle management.
+- Workers can be run as a future or as a stream of events.
+- Workers readiness is conditioned on the backend and service (and middleware) being ready.
+- This means any blocking middleware eg (concurrency) will block the worker from polling tasks.
+
+#### Worker Components
+
+The following are the main components the worker module:
+
+- [`WorkerBuilder`] - Fluent builder for configuring and constructing workers
+- [`Worker`] - Actual worker implementation that processes tasks
+- [`WorkerContext`] - Runtime state including task counts and execution status
+- [`Event`] - Worker event enumeration (`Start`, `Engage`, `Idle`, `Error`, `Stop`)
+- [`Ext`](https://docs.rs/apalis-core/1.0.0-beta.1/apalis_core/worker/ext/index.html) - Extension traits and middleware for adding functionality to workers
+
+#### Example: Building and Running a Worker
+```rust
+#[tokio::main]
+async fn main() {
+    let mut in_memory = MemoryStorage::new();
+    in_memory.push(1u32).await.unwrap();
+
+    async fn task(
+        task: u32,
+        worker: WorkerContext,
+    ) -> Result<(), BoxDynError> {
+         /// Do some work
+        tokio::time::sleep(Duration::from_secs(1)).await;
+        worker.stop().unwrap();
+        Ok(())
+    }
+
+    let worker = WorkerBuilder::new("rango-tango")
+        .backend(in_memory)
+        .on_event(|ctx, ev| {
+            println!("On Event = {:?}, {:?}", ev, ctx.name());
+        })
+        .build(task);
+    worker.run().await.unwrap();
+}
+```
+
+Learn more about workers in the [`worker`](crate::worker) and [`worker::builder`](crate::worker::builder) modules.
+
+##### Relevant Tutorials:
+- [**Creating task handlers**](crate::task_fn::guide) - Defining task processing functions using the [`TaskFn`] trait
+- [**Testing task handlers with `TestWorker`**](https://docs.rs/apalis-core/1.0.0-beta.1/apalis_core/worker/test_worker/index.html) - Specialized worker implementation for unit and integration testing
+
+### Monitor
+
+The [`Monitor`](https://docs.rs/apalis-core/1.0.0-beta.1/apalis_core/monitor/struct.Monitor.html) helps manage and coordinate multiple workers:
+
+**Main Features:**
+- **Worker Registry** - Keeps track of active workers
+- **Event Handling** - Handles and processes worker events
+- **Graceful Shutdown** - Stops all workers together safely
+- **Health Monitoring** - Restarts and manages worker health
+#### Example: Using `Monitor` with a Worker
+
+```rust
+#[tokio::main]
+async fn main() {
+    let mut storage = JsonStorage::new_temp().unwrap();
+    storage.push(1u32).await.unwrap();
+
+    let monitor = Monitor::new()
+        .on_event(|ctx, event| println!("{}: {:?}", ctx.name(), event))
+        .register(move |_| {
+            WorkerBuilder::new("demo-worker")
+                .backend(storage.clone())
+                .build(|req: u32, ctx: WorkerContext| async move {
+                    println!("Processing task: {:?}", req);
+                    Ok::<_, std::io::Error>(req)
+                })
+        });
+
+    // Start monitor and run all registered workers
+    monitor.run().await.unwrap();
+}
+```
+
+Learn more about the monitor in the [`monitor` module](https://docs.rs/apalis-core/1.0.0-beta.1/apalis_core/monitor/index.html.
+
+### Middleware
+
+Built on the `tower` ecosystem, `apalis-core` provides extensive middleware support like error handling, timeouts, rate limiting, and observability.
+
+#### Core Middleware
+
+The following middleware layers are included with their worker extensions:
+- [`AcknowledgmentLayer`] - Task acknowledgment after processing
+- [`EventListenerLayer`] - Worker event emission and handling
+- [`CircuitBreakerLayer`] - Circuit breaker pattern for failure handling
+- [`LongRunningLayer`] - Support for tracking long-running tasks
+
+#### Extending with middleware
+
+You can write your own middleware to run code before or after a task is processed.
+
+<details>
+<summary>Creating Custom Middleware</summary>
+
+Here's a simple example of a logging middleware layer:
+
+```rust
+use apalis_core::task::Task;
+use tower::{Layer, Service};
+use std::task::{Context, Poll};
+
+// Define a logging service that wraps another service
+pub struct LoggingService<S> {
+    inner: S,
+}
+
+impl<S, Req, Res, Err, IdType> Service<Task<Req, (), IdType>> for LoggingService<S>
+where
+    S: Service<Task<Req, (), IdType>, Response = Res, Error = Err>,
+    Req: std::fmt::Debug,
+{
+    type Response = Res;
+    type Error = Err;
+    type Future = S::Future;
+
+    fn poll_ready(&mut self, cx: &mut Context<'_>) -> Poll<Result<(), Self::Error>> {
+        self.inner.poll_ready(cx)
+    }
+
+    fn call(&mut self, req: Task<Req, (), IdType>) -> Self::Future {
+        println!("Processing task: {:?}", req.args);
+        self.inner.call(req)
+    }
+}
+
+// Define a layer that wraps services with LoggingService
+pub struct LoggingLayer;
+
+impl<S> Layer<S> for LoggingLayer {
+    type Service = LoggingService<S>;
+
+    fn layer(&self, service: S) -> Self::Service {
+        LoggingService { inner: service }
+    }
+}
+```
+</details>
+
+If you want your middleware to do more than just intercept requests and responses, you can use extension traits. See the [`worker::ext`](crate::worker::ext) module for examples.
+
+### Error Handling
+
+`apalis-core` defines a comprehensive error taxonomy for robust error handling:
+
+- [`AbortError`] - Non-retryable fatal errors requiring immediate termination
+- [`RetryAfterError`] - Retryable execution errors triggering retry mechanisms after a delay
+- [`DeferredError`] - Retryable execution errors triggering immediate retry
+
+This error classification enables precise error handling strategies and
+appropriate retry behavior for different failure scenarios.
+
+### Graceful Shutdown
+
+`apalis-core` has a reliable graceful shutdown system that makes sure
+workers stop safely and all tasks finish before shutting down:
+
+**Key Features:**
+- Task tracking: Workers keep track of how many tasks are running.
+- Shutdown control: The system waits until all tasks are finished before shutting down.
+- Monitor coordination: A shared [`Shutdown`] token helps all workers stop together.
+- Timeout: You can set a time limit for shutdown using [`with_terminator`](crate::monitor::Monitor::with_terminator).
+
+Learn more about the graceful shutdown process in the [`monitor`](crate::monitor#graceful-shutdown-with-timeout) module.
