Delay Queue

[carcabot]

Hi,

Is there any possibility to delay a queued job ?

for example this job must be delayed 5 minutes.

 $obj = array(
                'Schedule' => time() + (5 * 60)
            );
$queue->addJob($obj);

If you have other idea will be great.
Thanks.

This implementation might be possible with certain types of queuing
backends. One possibility is to implement some form of retry queue that
would continuously poll for the delayed execution time. But I don't think
it'll be easy.

It might be easier to have that delayed behavior controlled at the code
that adds things to the queue.

Yes I know, I thought can be done through beforeJob like

  public function beforeJob($jobObject)
    {
        parent::beforeJob($jobObject);
        $jobData = $jobObject->data;
        if($jobData['Scheduled'] > whatever) {
          // KEEP JOB in Queue
       } else {
          // run the job
    }
    }

It is possible to keep the job in queue somehow with the actual code ?

I'm not sure how to do that, but probably I will use crontab to add to the queue

Hi,

I've found a way on actual script.

I've opened a pull-request if you are interested to update it.
