Introduction
Superpowers for Rust message consumers

Production-ready retries, DLQs, ordering, audit logs, and autoscaling for your existing messaging stack.

cargo add shove --features inmemory

What you get

A small API on top of the brokers you already run. Three pillars:

  • Strongly typed topics — bind a message type to a queue topology once; the compiler keeps publishers and consumers in sync.
  • Managed consumer groups with autoscaling — min/max worker bounds driven by queue depth or consumer lag.
  • Delivery ordering — strict per-key ordering with a single .sequenced() switch.

Plugs into RabbitMQ, AWS SNS+SQS, NATS JetStream, Apache Kafka, and Redis/Valkey Streams.
