# Batch Queries
This document describes features from Batch Queries, it also details some internals that might be useful for maintainers
and developers.
## Redis data structures
### Jobs definition
Redis Hash: `batch:jobs:{UUID}`.
Redis DB: 5.
It stores the job definition, the user, and some metadata like the final status, the failure reason, and so.
### Job queues
Redis List: `batch:queue:{username}`.
Redis DB: 5.
It stores a pending list of jobs per user. It points to a job definition with the `{UUID}`.
### Job notifications
Redis Pub/Sub channel: `batch:users`.
Redis DB: 0.
In order to notify new jobs, it uses a Pub/Sub channel were the username for the queued job is published.
## Job types
Format for the currently supported query types, and what they are missing in terms of features.
### Simple
```json
{
"query": "update ..."
}
```
Does not support main fallback queries. Ideally it should support something like:
```json
{
"query": "update ...",
"onsuccess": "select 'general success fallback'",
"onerror": "select 'general error fallback'"
}
```
### Multiple
```json
{
"query": [
"update ...",
"select ... into ..."
]
}
```
Does not support main fallback queries. Ideally it should support something like:
```json
{
"query": [
"update ...",
"select ... into ..."
],
"onsuccess": "select 'general success fallback'",
"onerror": "select 'general error fallback'"
}
```
### Fallback
```json
{
"query": {
"query": [
{
"query": "select 1",
"onsuccess": "select 'success fallback query 1'",
"onerror": "select 'error fallback query 1'"
},
{
"query": "select 2",
"onerror": "select 'error fallback query 2'"
}
],
"onsuccess": "select 'general success fallback'",
"onerror": "select 'general error fallback'"
}
}
```
It's weird to have two nested `query` attributes. Also, it's not possible to mix _plain_ with _fallback_ ones.
Ideally it should support something like:
```json
{
"query": [
{
"query": "select 1",
"onsuccess": "select 'success fallback query 1'",
"onerror": "select 'error fallback query 1'"
},
"select 2"
],
"onsuccess": "select 'general success fallback'",
"onerror": "select 'general error fallback'"
}
}
```
Where you don't need a nested `query` attribute, it's just an array as in Multiple job type, and you can mix objects and
plain queries.
