Feature Request: Provide context aware JobQueue interface

[joshuar]

Hey there,

Awesome library!

Using this in one of my projects, I've built a queue implementation which uses a backend that requires passing a context to its CRUD endpoints. Currently, I have to create a global context at start and then reference this in my implementation. It would be nicer if I could pass a context to the methods on the JobQueue interface instead.

As an example, scs provides both a context-aware and non-context-aware interface for implementing a custom session store:

I'd love to see something similar in quartz!

Cheers!

Thank you, @joshuar.

I understand your request for context-aware methods. However, the only context that can be propagated by the scheduler is the one that is set at its startup, since there are no context parameters in the scheduler's methods. Therefore, the same context can be embedded within the custom queue implementation. The queue implementation can then extend this context with additional custom logic (e.g., for cancellation or timeout).
