Ref T8637. This does nothing interesting, just has empty scaffolding for a bulk job queue.
Basic idea is that when you do something like a batch edit in Maniphest, we:
- Create a BulkJob with all the details.
- Queue a worker to start the job.
- Send you to a progress bar page for the job.
In the background:
- The "start job" worker creates a ton of Task objects, then queues worker tasks to do the work.
In the foreground:
- Fancy ajax animates the progress bar and it goes wooosh.
In general:
- Big jobs actually work.
- Jobs get logged.
- You can monitor jobs.
- Terrible junk like T8637 should be much harder to write and much easier to catch and diagnose.
