+1, being able to run a job at a desired time is an important feature for any job queue. A delayed state would allow it exist in the queue it belongs in. Where does a delayed job go if not the queue? Does it receive the same replication guarantees?
Is it still not possible to list delayed jobs?
Currently there's no way to find jobs that have been queued with a delay using
JSCAN
orQPEEK
. SimilarlyQSTAT
on a queue containing only delayed jobs runs null, but I think this is intentional?My use case is that I want to sometimes execute jobs earlier than their set delays. As a work around I'm maintaining a list of delayed job ids in my application code for when I need to process jobs immediately and using
SHOW
to retrieve the job thenACKJOB
as normal to mark it processed.It would be good if
QPEEK
andJSCAN
had an option to include or show only delayed jobs in their response so it would be possible to iterate and dequeue them if they're no longer necessary or process them immediately.A possible implementation may be adding a new job state
delayed
, which would allowJSCAN
to query for it.
