Schedule new jobs at the top of the queue

[Sebobo]

We have the requirement to schedule certain jobs at the top of the queue depending on some parameter.

Is this already possible with one of the existing strategies or does this need some new implementation?

Hi @hlubek, do you think this adjustment or implementation of a new strategy is hard to do?

[hlubek]

We could add a new (optional) priority field for POST /pipelines/schedule and order the queued job according to that priority. If you need to always get to the top of the queue, you could e.g. use a timestamp for the priority.

Would that work for your scenario?

We have two kinds of jobs. One that should be prioritised and the others go to the end of the queue. So if I provide a timestamp and if it's not null it should go to the top, that would work for me 🙂
