N8n using PostgreSQL added to BigBearCasaOS

I’ve been seeing a lot of people who want an updated version of n8n, so I added it to BigBearCasaOS. The n8n setup uses PostgreSQL, and you need to run a script that’s in BigBearScripts before installing.

Run this script:

bash -c "$(wget -qLO - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bigbeartechworld/big-bear-scripts/master/generate-n8n-init-data/run.sh)"

After running this script, you should be able to install it.

Any plans on update the script to support n8n Queue mode ?

Is this required now or just optional?

This is optional.

I noticed that the current setup uses PostgreSQL for n8n, and I’m wondering if there are plans to support n8n’s Queue mode in the future.

Queue mode provides several benefits, including:

  • Improved performance: It allows n8n to process tasks asynchronously, which can significantly improve performance, especially when dealing with large workloads.
  • Increased reliability: It helps prevent bottlenecks and ensures that tasks are completed even if there are temporary issues with the system.
  • Enhanced scalability: It allows n8n to handle more tasks and users without compromising performance.

I believe that adding support for Queue mode would make n8n even more powerful and flexible within BigBearCasaOS. It would be fantastic to see this feature considered for a future update.

Thank you for your consideration and for all your hard work in enhancing BigBearCasaOS.

Yes, queueing helps a lot with many tasks. I use it frequently in BigBearApps. I’ll look into it further.
