Details

The library is broken down into the following components:

JobManager interface - represents a way to handle a job's lifecycle.
RawJob - an implementation of JobManager for managing a Raw job's life cycle.
Worker - an implementation of a beanstalkd client process that consumes raw jobs from one or more tubes. It will automatically reconnect to beanstalkd server if it loses the connection.
