Interested to see what you've started Jonathan, In rebus:list we used Minion, the job queue spin-off project from the same guys that wrote Mojolicious. Granted, it works best with a PostgreSQL backend, but I believe there are MySQL backends too.. I'd probably start there... the more I worked with

This is an old issue that's never really been addressed. As I understand it, at one time, we had a tool that used the unix 'at' scheduler to run requested reports. This was a huge security hole, and we disabled it and it's never worked since. As such, those who host servers must add calls to r

I would love to see a proper queuing system used for this, maybe introduce a really nice solution here that we can apply across the board for other things that need queuing. I'm thinking things like zebra updates, sending checkin/checkout emails, and others I'm sure I'm not thinking of. The at bas

We've done something like that, here, using plugins to do anything we needed. The reason we never published it was that it was not secure _at all_ and we needed to revisit it. Do you intend to "hardcode" the jobs available, or leave the user to decide, thus opening your backend to some unwelc
