Feature: Edit job's data at failed / waiting tabs

[n10000k]

The ability to edit the "data", save then it creates a log of what it previously was

[felixmosh]

Can you elaborate?

[n10000k]

The ability to edit the paylod in data, let's say a job is failing due to a previous bug. You can quickly have the ability to update the value of data.

Just checked that ticket, it's for creating only. This one is for editing the current job, what's your opinions on it? Like it's something i really need 😆

[felixmosh]

So it's a duplicate of #426 :]
The ability to add a new job (with predefined params from an existing one).

We need to work on it.
Any help will be welcomed. :]

@felixmosh that would create a whole new job, i guess in this instance i want to keep the existing job and just update the redis value for data

[felixmosh]

I don't think that editing an existing job is a good practice...
Think that you will need to move it to waiting as well.

How would you do that with code? is bull & bullmq supports it?

The suggested solution that I thought of, is to add a new job with duplicated data.

Looks like it's supported by bull here ^

Yeah, however if someone has some form of dependency on a job id also might have an issue with creating a new one.

[felixmosh]

Ok, get your point.

@felixmosh any idea of an eta for this 🤞🏻

[felixmosh]

I'm a bit busy lately... can't assure an ETA.
If this is an urgent feature for you, I'll happy to review a PR for this.
