How to halt currently running job in Jobqueue ? #80

Closed gkumar9 closed 6 years ago

gkumar9 commented 6 years ago

I am using jobqueue for running some logic in backend. On certain event, I add entry to Jobqueue and job starts running (inside backend) and job status becomes 'Active'. Now what I need is, on another event from frontend, I need to stop this currently running job in jobqueue. I am using "CancelJob" method, but it only changes status to "Cancel", not halting currently running job from Jobqueue.

Read through the Queue.process document page. You want to be using the onCancel parameter in the process handler.

Thanks, @grantcarthew onCancel worked and helped me abort my currently running process.
