How to notify queue that stalled job is still in progress?

[SishaarRao]

Hello! I see in this page in the docs that

When a job is in an active state, i.e., it is being processed by a worker, it needs to continuously update the queue to notify that the worker is still working on the job.

How do we update the queue that the worker is still working on a job?

For context, we have a worker that is doing batched writes to a DB. This could be a long running job depending on how many writes need to be performed. Ideally, in between each batch, we can notify the queue that the worker is still processing.

The notification is handled automatically by the worker as long as it is not a CPU intensive operation that keeps the CPU busy during at least 30 seconds.
