Hello, I'm working on an app which needs to manage a number of large file transfers (gigs of full-HD video files) on a periodic basis, and am planning to implement this via some sort of job queue system with curl- based workers taking the activity offline from the browser. I had been planning to use Gearman, but upon discovering the Queue plugin I've been investigating that Beanstalk-based approach.
My question is about inspecting the progress of the individual jobs. I would like to be able to have a page with feedback on how the jobs are progressing, along with a progress percentage for each file's download. I haven't been able to find any info on how one would get any kind of data back from a worker mid-job, whether in the context of David's plugin, or Beanstalk in general. It looks as though this is more straightforward in Gearman. Can anyone shed any insight? Any input on how hard it would be to add Gearman support to the Queue plugin? thanks -eric -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
