FAQPage Schema
How do I manage long-running background processes and jobs?

To manage long-running background processes and jobs, you can use a process manager to spawn, monitor, stop, and restart tasks. This reduces manual overhead by automating lifecycle coordination across local environments.

How can I monitor background job status and retrieve logs via API or CLI?

You can monitor background job status and retrieve logs by invoking API endpoints or CLI commands. The process manager supports getStatus and getOutput functions to fetch real-time execution logs and reporting.

What is a process pool and when do I need it for batch workflows?

A process pool is a collection of managed background processes used to handle concurrent execution. You need it for robust batch workflows where coordinating multiple long-running jobs improves throughput and reliability.

Can I gracefully restart scheduled tasks and long-running jobs in local development environments?

Yes, you can gracefully restart scheduled tasks and long-running jobs in local development environments. The process manager provides restart capabilities with built-in error handling and status reporting for safe recovery.

What is the best way to coordinate process lifecycles across local environments?

The best way to coordinate process lifecycles across local environments is using a dedicated process manager. It standardizes spawning, monitoring, and stopping background jobs to ensure robust batch workflow execution.

Why does my background process stop working and how does error handling report it?

Background processes stop working due to execution failures or resource limits. The process manager implements error handling and status reporting to capture these events, allowing you to retrieve outputs and diagnose issues.
