Method Signature

Description

This method call should be use with caution. When you call Queue.reset the Queue object will delete all jobs in the queue backing table. There is no function within rethinkdb-job-queue that can drop the database.

There is no recovery from this unless you have a backup of your RethinDB database.

As a best practice, never call your queue the same name as another table within the database you point the Queue object at. See the Queue Options document for more detail.

Do not call Queue.reset without good reason.

Calling Queue.reset does not remove the queue backing table. If that is your intention see the Queue.drop document.
