Is there any library for the queueing mechanism?

What's used by the most - Cron? But a task or rather script executed by Cron won't access to the context of an application. Meaning, a task will have be an independent unit. Whereas I want is a library to use inside a project such that it'll have access to everything.

Anything similar to Sidekiq exist in Rust?

I looked into this last week for recurring tasks in an actix-web project and ended up picking fang, but haven't really battle tested it.. But seems to do what I need. I'm using cron tasks with Postgres as the backend to run a recurring task every minute.
