Dynamic Cron Jobs

[MehdiRtal]

Will there be any support for dynamically creating cron jobs after starting the worker as stated in #197 ?
It can be something like "ArqRedis.schedule_job()".

Hi MehdiRtal,

I saw your comment and I believe I can help you with this issue. To address the need for dynamically creating cron jobs after the worker has started, I implemented a solution where I created a worker that periodically checks my database for new jobs to schedule.

Here’s a high-level overview of the approach:

1. Polling Mechanism: The worker periodically checks the database for any new jobs with a specific status, such as PENDING.
2. Job Creation: When it detects a job with the PENDING status, it creates a new job using enqueue_job.

By using this approach, you can dynamically create and schedule jobs based on the conditions and timing you need.
